This Elegant, Flight Attendant-Approved Costco Item Keeps Food Cold Longer On A Budget

Remember back to your school days. The days when you would go to the store with your family to pick out a cool lunch box before the start of the year. That moment was just as exciting as picking out your first day back to school outfit. Having your favorite Capri-Sun stay ice cold until lunchtime may have been a challenge back then, but now, retail warehouse giant Costco is stocking a lunchbox tote that is receiving a lot of praise from flight attendants that say it's both stylish and excellent at keeping their food cooler for longer periods of time. Even your younger self would be excited about this.

TikTok users @flightattendanttj and @cbellamy2021, who are both active flight attendants, are raving about their Costco find and are clearly excited about the new stylish faux leather cooler bag they got. Now, we've all been to Costco and have confidently walked in for a few items, yet always leave with something you didn't think you needed nor wanted, including some awesome products that can enhance your camping experience. In @cbellamy2021's TikTok video, his caption says it all: "I truly believe Costco knows all my needs ... and wants."

In @flightattendanttj's TikTok video, he speaks about how a friend gifted the Titan Faux Leather Cooler Tote to him. In the review, he also speaks about how the cooler tote comes in a variety of colors, however, flight attendant baggage is typically always black, due to the professional association with the color and the ability to match their uniforms.

Flight attendants work accumulated hours spent inside the plane and may vary depending on length of their flight, and they even work additional hours preparing the plane for passengers. What doesn't change for flight attendants is the need to stay fed and nourished so they can be at their best while in the air. While some flight attendants share tips on how to handle long travel days, @flightattendanttj and @cbellamy2021 are sharing their new lunchbox find.

The Titan Faux Leather Cooler Tote is not only sleek and elegant, but at just $46.99 (at the time of writing) it's also affordable. In @flightattendanttj's video, he explains how it is a perfect lunch bag for a three or four day working trip, since costs can add up if you're constantly purchasing food. He's then shown on video describing how the open back flap can easily slide over the roller board (the handle) of the luggage so it sits right on top of the luggage. In the video, @flightattendanttj seems visibly impressed at how deep the interior is, and he mentions how the tote keeps food cool for up to 48 hours, which is crucial for long-haul flights or multi-day trips. 

TikTok user and flight attendant @cbellamy2021 posted a follow up video about the cooler tote, after a follower requested a review of the bag after using it. In the video, @cbellamy2021 is shown placing the cooler tote over the trolley handle. As it slides perfectly over the handle, even he is shocked as to how sleek it looks on top of the luggage. He goes on to compare the new lunchbox to his old one and states how cumbersome his previous one was. The Titan Cooler Tote can fit an impressive 30 cans of soda or five wine bottles according to the label, which is more than enough space for different amounts of tupperware.

People are jumping to the comment section in response to watching both @flightattendanttj's and @cbellamy2021's videos about their cool new Costco find. While packing your own lunch certainly helps flight attendants spend less on food while traveling, TikTok user @laurenfuson248's comment on @cbellamy2021's video shows that this tote isn't just grabbing the attention of flight attendants by saying "Am I a flight attendant? nope. Do I pack lunch like this? Nope. Did I watch both these videos ... definitely." Another user agrees by saying "Lol same literally work from home and I'm watching like should I grab it."

Flight attendants are clearly impressed with the cooler tote. In @flightattendanttj's video, a user excitedly says "Oooo I. Need. That. Thank you from a fellow FA." Another user mentions that she just bought the cooler tote and says "I just bought this." The sleek styling of the cooler tote is catching eyes, with other users chiming in with comments such as "Nice Lunch Box" and "This is noiiiiiiice !! And it's fashionable."

Verified Costco purchasers of the Titan Cooler Tote are just as excited about their bag. One reviewer by the name Yogilyn states that it is a "great tote to travel with. I've been looking for something like this for a while. Bonus points for style and material." Another customer by the name Susie H says that "it kept our food cool all day ... while looking very stylish. I had several people ask where I got it! Perfect sized for what we needed! Get it!" With all the excitement surrounding this bag, it's easy to see that your work lunchbox can be functional, fashionable, and affordable.
