7 Reasons Airline Pilots Recommend This Cushion for Back and Tailbone pain

By Jessica M.

Last Updated Aug 21, 2025

Summary: Can’t walk after sitting 14 hours in economy seats? If flying wrecks your back and tailbone, this cushion is the fix. Pilots and flight attendants can’t be sore and achy on the job. This cushion helps them stay fresh and pain-free when they fly for long hours. It’s like first-class comfort without the $3000 upgrade. Here’s why thousands of frequent flyers never leave home without it

1. No more back or tailbone pain

Airline seats are tiny, narrow, and rigid. They force your body into a position where all the pressure piles onto your tailbone and lower spine. After an hour, you start to feel the dull ache. After five, the pain radiates down your back and legs like fire. That’s the torture most flyers accept as ‘normal. The Sondur cushion uses a patented Air Cell design that absorbs pressure and redistributes your weight. It keeps your spine aligned so instead of feeling like your bones are grinding into metal, you feel supported. Like you’re sitting on a cloud that soothes your back and butt.

2. Arrive ready to hit the ground running

Don’t let uncomfortable airline seats ruin your precious vacation or your important business trip. The Sondur travel cushion provides the perfect amount of cushioning between your bottom and the uncomfortable seat below, allowing you to comfortably relax, rest and sleep through your flight. With this cushion, you'll arrive at your destination refreshed, energized and ready to hit the ground running.

3. Compact, portable & travel friendly

The Sondur travel cushion is your ultimate travel companion, designed to be compact and easy to carry. It’s lightweight and folds into a small carry bag that easily fits inside your bag or backpack. Finally, a travel cushion that is truly travel-friendly and won’t need you to sacrifice comfort for space.

4. Adjustable support & easy to use

Setting up the cushion is easy and takes seconds, simply inflate it with just a few breaths. But here's the real game-changer, you’re able to adjust the firmness while sitting on the cushion! Press the inflate button to add firmness or the deflate button to make it softer - easily adjust the cushion to what’s the most comfortable for you.

5. Built to last

Unlike cheap inflatable cushions that slowly deflate under pressure, the Sondur travel cushion maintains its shape and support throughout your entire journey. Made with premium, ultra-durable materials, every component is engineered to last so it’s perfectly comfortable from takeoff to landing, perfect for frequent flyers.

6. One cushion, unlimited uses

Your new Sondur travel cushion works everywhere life takes you. From airplane seats to airport gates, rental cars to stadium bleachers, office chairs to train seats it’s the perfect cushion for any occasion. Wherever you need some comfort and support, you can count on this cushion.

7. Our Comfort Guarantee

We're so confident our cushion will transform your travel experience that we back it with our "Love it or return it” guarantee. Try it on your next long-haul flight, and if you don't arrive feeling dramatically more comfortable, return it for a full refund. No questions asked

Why 31,324+ customers love their Sondur travel cushion

Best travel cushion on the market

I fly overseas a couple times a year and airline seats are definitely not what they used to be. These cushions have been amazing! It’s light enough and compact enough to roll up into my backpack and is well worth the price.

No more tailbone pain when I fly now

Best thing ever love it! I can now fly without my butt hurting (cause I have no fat on mine). I fly back and forth to Hawaii from San Jose and this has been a lifesaver! Will not ever fly without it!

Don't fly without this!

I fly a lot and, as most of you know, coach seats are like wooden benches these days. This cushion folds into the size of my hand and gives you plenty of cush and support wherever you use it. Best purchase I've made!

So thankful for this cushion

Long haul flights are very painful for me to sit through. This cushion made a 9-hour flight extremely comfortable. I arrived with no pain and feeling much more rested than I had on any long flight in years.

A lifesaver for my 12 hour flight

I used this on a 12 hour flight and I wasn’t sore at the end of the flight. That extra bit of cushioning made a huge difference! I like that it fits in a small bag to carry around. Would highly recommend!
