Cici, 51, from Florida, who goes by the social media handle @cici.inthesky, explains in a TikTok video how a roll of tape can have multiple uses. First, she shows how it can be used to prevent lotions and mixtures from leaking.

Secondly, Cici explains that if you buy colored duct tape, a strip of it can be used on your suitcase to make it easier to identify at the airport baggage carousel. This information was published by dailymail.co.

For travelers who have trouble sleeping, Cici demonstrates how pieces of duct tape can be used to cover any small lights that might be disturbing, and she places two pieces over a blue light.

Keeping with the electronics theme, the flight attendant shows how travelers with small children can keep their hotel room childproof by using duct tape to cover the outlets.

Another use that Cici demonstrates is to take a piece of duct tape to "repair a broken bag strap" and then roll up a piece of duct tape to create a "fluff collector" to remove hair from your clothes.

She also says that a piece of duct tape can be used to repair the edge of your pants if it "comes out or maybe they're too long."

Moving on to shoes, Cici shows how duct tape can be used to fix shoes if the heel is broken or another area needs repair.

Finally, she says that tape can be used to hide things in your hotel room.

After Cici shared her duct tape tips, she was inundated with other suggestions from viewers. One commenter suggested that it could be used as a "deadbolt over the door [in a hotel room] so people can't open it." Another viewer said that the tape could be used to keep curtains or blinds closed in a hotel room, which Cici praised as a "great idea!"

Others said they were also strong supporters of duct tape. One user wrote: "I never travel without duct tape. You can buy minimal rolls at the dollar store. Buy a dozen and keep them handy."
