Travel card games?

What are some travel games cards or otherwise that you like to play on trains and planes?. I am looking for a card game for 2 people, maybe even a D&D type one. I have been interested in picking up a cribbage set also.

Cribbage is great and would be my choice. If "D&D" means Dungeons and Dragons, others must offer their opinions.

We like Iota on trains with tables between us. But it requires too much space for plane tables. It's a quarter size deck so it takes less than a square inch of travel space. The game is like dominos on steroids.

Why not just take a small deck of cards and play gin rummy, crazy eights, fish, etc?

We play cribbage when camping, since it's so packable. Also Bananagrams.

We like Quiddler. It is a word game with cards that takes about 15 minutes for a round.

We bring a deck of cards and play cribbage ( you don't need a board, just a pen and paper to keep score) and gin rummy. We also have a travel Scrabble board that always goes with us. It's only about 3" x 6" when folded. The tiles have magnets, so they won't slide around the board. And everything fits into a cloth sac.

We have a small folding plastic cribbage board which holds the cards which travels a lot with us. Mostly though we look out the windows at beautiful train scenery or use small electronic devices.
