Eye masks are also a valuable travel hack. Hotels tend to have LED light coming from different places - smoke alarms, clocks, key card slots etc - and it's always a gamble how much sunlight gets through the windows. It's much easier to put on an eye mask than worry about how to black out the room.
Similar story with any form of transport, where the various light sources are largely outside your control.
The newer "3D" eye masks provide full blackout and stays on without much trouble. Well worth keeping in a travel kit alongside earplugs.

With a bluetooth mask you can add some white noise so even extraneous sounds aren't bothering you.
