The only thing that I haven’t seen in other replies:
An Apple Watch is a must! Automatically changes to the correct time zone.
The only thing I have in my pocket is my drivers license. My boarding pass is on my watch. Makes life very easy!

A lot of truths in these responses. I travel weekly so I’ll add my 2 cents.
Pick an airline based on your travel needs. Personally I’ve done Southwest bc the companion pass is nice for family vacations. Lately I’ve opted for AA for the status perks. I’m now EP and it is nice. Supposedly not as good as it was in the last but then again what is.
Choose a hotel brand and stick with them. I chose SPG, now Marriott, bc the higher end vacation types were nicer than Hilton. I do miss Diamond status at Hilton for a guaranteed room but Marriott is fine.
A top end carry on is a must. Some say to get the international size but I’ve got the domestic Tumi and I haven’t found an overhead bin it doesn’t fit in.
I’m a backpack guy but whatever works for you.
Bose headphones for the plane and AirPods for everything else.
I rent from National just out of habit. I earn free rental days that I hardly ever use but so what.
Get a good credit card that maximizes points.
If you are traveling a lot make sure you find a way to eat heathy and work out. Otherwise the travel can lead to an unhealthy lifestyle.
