One of the most common types of boards is a travel chess set, which is meant to be taken with you and either played on-the-go or at least capable of being set up at a moment’s notice while you are traveling.

Let’s take a closer look at what you need to know when you are looking for travel chess pieces and boards that are perfect for your needs.
The first thing you need to consider is whether or not you need a magnetic travel chess set versus a non-magnetic travel chess set. Magnetic boards and pieces are perfect for when you plan to actually play while on the go, such as when you are in the backseat of a car or on a train or plane or will otherwise be in motion. The magnetic boards and pieces will make sure that your game doesn’t slide around as you travel. If you don’t plan to be playing in motion or you don’t mind a bit of risk, then a non-magnetic travel chess set is an acceptable option.
