The best Prime Day travel deals
Travel is rarely as simple as grabbing a bag and heading out the door. Now, you likely have to make sure you pack your laptop, tablet, earbuds and phone — and you can’t forget the chargers. This case keeps all of the cables neatly organized and even has different layers and compartments to make sure nothing gets tangled.
“This is perfect for all the cords and gadgets for a flight,” one five-star reviewer wrote. “It’s about the size of my hand, and even comes with a wristband. This is very lightweight, but really nice quality.”
It’s not often that you find a genuine leather wallet at such a great price — and right now it’s nearly 40% off for Prime Day. There’s space for cash and cards aplenty, and it’s available in over 30 colors.
One of over 40,000 five-star reviewers said this is just what they needed for their long trip. “We just spent three weeks backpacking through Europe, and this was very useful,” the shopper wrote. “I needed a small, thin wallet to hold my bills and main cards in the money belt. … This minimalist wallet did the job.”
Having to endure a long flight with no in-flight entertainment is a bummer. (Of course, sometimes the entertainment that is available is also a bummer.) Here’s your plan B: This phone holder lets you prop up your device to watch your favorite shows or movies, hands-free and at eye level. It easily attaches to your tray table or luggage handle, so it’s a no-brainer, space-saving add-on. Flight crew members like it so much, they use it for travel and keep using it once they’re back home.
“As a commuting flight attendant, [this] comes in very handy,” one impressed shopper wrote. “At home, I like it propped up on the counter.”
Traveling is always smoother sailing when all of my documents and credit cards are easily accessible. This faux leather passport case also functions as a wallet, so you’re able to store your passport, credit cards, some cash, driver’s license, boarding pass and even your SIM card all in one pouch. It’s also waterproof and has an RFID-blocking shield to keep your data safe.
We are, of course, fans of all these great features, but we also love the 45 gorgeous colors — and we’re pretty big fans of the 44% discount.
“It’s always a hassle in the airport keeping track of everything, but this helps keep it all in one place. I even had vaccination papers I needed that fit well inside,” one shopper wrote.
If your feet swell when you fly, you’re not alone — it’s caused by cabin pressure, and investing in some good compression socks is an easy fix. They help increase blood circulation, especially if you’re on a lengthy flight and will be sitting for hours on end. These popular compression socks have over 59,000 five-star reviews and shoppers say they’re great for bigger calves too.
“Best compression socks I have ever bought,” one happy traveler said. “These are great quality and easy to put on but do not ‘strangle’ my calves. The compression is consistent after using and washing for months — they do not lose their elasticity.”
If you’ve ever tried to settle in for an in-flight snooze, you know it’s a challenge. Travelers say this 100% memory foam neck pillow is the closest they’ve gotten to sleeping on a real pillow while they’re on a plane. It even comes with a drawstring carrying bag for you to store it once you land.
“I’ve gone through several different kinds of neck pillows and this is my favorite,” one flight crew member wrote. “I have a bad neck (arthritis and a reversed C-spine). I had to sleep with it once in a hotel because their pillows were dreadful and found it more comfortable! As a flight attendant, I recommend!”
Looking for a handy no-frills lightweight tote bag that’s just the right personal item size? This quilted option fits the bill and has the right amount of space for all the essentials. It has one roomy main compartment, three interior pockets and a sleeve that fits up to a 15.6-inch laptop.
The price has fluctuated over the past four months, but this sale price remains its lowest during this time.
“It worked great for under-seat storage on the airplane and in the trunk of the car,” one five-star reviewer wrote. “I’d like to get a second one in a different size now.”

Travel backpacks tend to be a bit bulky, the more you stuff in them. This one, though, maintains a sleek and slim profile, but don’t let its svelte form fool you — it has much more space than meets the eye. It has three separate zippered full-sized compartments: the first is large enough to fit a pair of shoes, the second is the perfect main size for storage headphones and clothes and the third has a couple of deep sleeves for storing a 15.6-inch laptop and a tablet.
“I love the way it looks, the flexibility and amount of storage, the internal pockets, and the straps,” one reviewer wrote. “It’s proven to be water resistant, super easy to clean, and holds a surprisingly large amount of stuff.”

Travel experts and frequent fliers say packing cubes are one of the easiest ways to stay organized. If you tend to overpack or always seem to forget something, they can keep everything tidy and easy to find. In addition to an array of bags in various sizes, this eight-piece set includes a toiletry bag, a shoe bag and a sock bag.
“I’m getting ready for flight attendant training and wanted to buy these to help me organize the many things I need to bring,” wrote one reviewer. “What surprised me is that both pairs of high heels fit in the shoe bag.”
This hanging toiletry bag strikes just the right balance between roomy and compact, and it has loads of convenient features that seasoned travelers love. In addition to the six built-in pockets and multiple slots, it comes with a detachable, transparent cosmetic bag that’s TSA-approved, making a trip through security speedier.
Several flight crew members praise this well-designed bag for simplifying traveling with toiletries. “As a flight attendant, this bag has saved me so much time and packing,” one travel pro wrote. “No need to have several different bags to pack your toiletries because this bag has so many compartments.”

If you’ve been meaning to upgrade your current luggage, this two-piece set is screaming your name — and at just under $35, this is the lowest price we’ve seen this carry-on bundle in years.
It comes with a 20-inch suitcase that’s just the right size for those cramped overhead storage compartments, plus a personal item bag that slides over the carry-on’s handle with a trolley sleeve. Each piece has external zippered compartments to store your wallet, passport or any other essentials while you’re running to your gate.
“I’m a flight attendant and I absolutely love this luggage set,” one travel pro wrote. “Sure, there are other brands to recommend, but this was a pleasant surprise. I am shocked at how durable and dependable this set is.”
When it comes to luggage recommendations, flight attendants’ opinions rank at the top of our list. It’s no secret that Travelpro is professional fliers’ favorite luggage brand, thanks to its durability and lightweight build. One of its most popular carry-on models is 36% off for Prime Day. To put it into perspective, it hasn’t been this affordable in over three months!
This 20-inch carry-on is on the smaller side, so it won’t take up much space overhead, allowing you to fit your personal item beside it to give you all the legroom you need at your seat. Pro tip: If you’re flying on a small commercial flight, this bag won’t give you any issues with overhead storage.
“As a flight attendant, this fits even in the small 200 bins if not overstuffed!” one five-star reviewer wrote. “Super worth the investment.”
You really can’t go wrong with Samsonite. This luggage brand is one of the most recognizable and trusted in the world — it has been around for years, and its pieces are extremely durable, fans say. If you’re looking for a hard-side checked luggage piece that can take a beating in baggage claim while keeping your things safe and secure, this is the one to buy. It’s also expandable, allowing you to fit more by just undoing the extra zipper.
One shopper who traveled to three countries and six airports over six months with this suitcase said it stayed dent-free. They added: “It doesn’t weigh much, and is easy to maneuver with one hand. The extended handle doesn’t warp or bend when you have a very heavy amount of clothes and gifts in it.”
Get two pieces for just a little more than the price of one with this Prime Day-exclusive Samsonite pair. This set comes with a carry-on and medium suitcase — both hard-sided. Prices vary, depending on which of the 13 colors you choose, but this Caribbean Blue variety is a nearly 55% off, which is the lowest price we’ve ever seen for these.
“The size of both is perfect!” one impressed shopper wrote. “The wheels were very hardy. It got through the airports, cruise ports, ship and back home through the snow with no issues at all! Very durable.”
One of the best Prime Day travel deals of the bunch, this two-piece Samsonite luggage set comes with everything you need for your trip: a carry-on and a large checked suitcase. Each piece is expandable and has whisper-silent 360° spinner wheels. Both suitcases also have divider pockets and cross ribbons for easy built-in organization.
“I can’t say enough good things about my Samsonite hard luggage,” one impressed reviewer wrote. “It’s incredibly durable and built to withstand even the toughest travel conditions … The wheels glide smoothly, making it easy to maneuver through airports and crowded streets.”
