15 Amazon October Prime Day Travel Deals Editors Love

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days — often referred to as “October Prime Day” — is kicking off tomorrow, but we’re already seeing massive savings on tons of travel-related goodies. If you want to take advantage of these early Prime Day deals, I’ve rounded up the best picks, according to my experience as a travel editor who has covered this sale for over three years. 

I have a few trips coming up before the year ends, including London in November and Disney World and Universal Studios Florida in December. Both of these excursions require stocking up on travel essentials like comfortable shoes, packing accessories, and travel outfits I can wear during my flights and once I reach my destination. Ahead, you’ll find the best Prime Day deals I’m shopping and you should check out, too. With prices starting at just $7, stock up on everything from matching sets to compression packing cubes.

PrettyGarden 2-piece Sweatsuit Set

Having a go-to matching set to wear on the plane can make travel days so much easier, and this comfortable sweatsuit is the perfect option at just $35. With a loose-fit design, this two-piece set won’t feel restrictive when sitting on the plane for hours, and you can wear a short-sleeve shirt underneath to take off the sweatshirt if you get too warm. The ribbed fabric, half-zip front, and cuffed ankles add a stylish touch to the ensemble, so you’ll look put together even after an overnight flight. There are 20 colors to choose from, and the top and bottom are easy to mix and match with other items in your travel wardrobe.

Apple AirTag 4 Pack

One of the top recommendations for travelers shopping this Prime Day is to stock up on Apple AirTags. You can get a pack of four for $79, which means each one comes in at just under $20. (Single AirTags are also on sale for $25 a piece, but clearly, this is the better deal!) These are some of Travel + Leisure editors’ favorite luggage trackers because of how compact they are, so you can keep an eye on everything from your bag to your wallet. 

Baleaf Women’s Wide-leg Pants

My favorite type of travel pants are those that toe the line between sweatpants and “regular” pants. These Baleaf pants are the perfect option because they are structured, so you’ll look put together, but they’re made of soft, stretchy fabric for ultimate comfort while sitting. They feature a drawstring and large side pockets, so you can customize the fit and hold important items like your phone. The quick-dry fabric means you can even hand-wash them when you reach your destination to wear on the plane back.

Nortiv 8 Women’s Slip-on Walking Shoes

Earlier this year, one T+L contributor wrote about the Nortiv 8 brand on Amazon and raved about how these affordable shoes provide enough support for walking, exploring, and even working out. Now, for $36, you can get these comfortable walking shoes with an impressive feature: a hands-free design. You can easily slip them on and go, making them perfect for going through TSA. The knitted upper and mesh lining also help with airflow to prevent your feet from overheating, even when you’re doing a lot of walking.

Cushionaire Women’s Hana Cork Footbed Clog

Another shoe to add to your travel wardrobe is an easy-to-slip-on clog, like this pair from Cushionaire that’s only $40 right now. With supportive insoles, these shoes are so comfortable that even nurses report wearing them for long shifts without pain. The footbed is designed to contour to your foot over time, so they’ll feel even more comfortable and supportive as you continue to wear them. With 14 shades to choose from, these Cushionaire clogs are also the perfect shoe to stock up on for ultimate travel wardrobe versatility.

Matein Carry-on Backpack

A carry-on backpack is one genius way to avoid extra luggage fees and lugging a bulky weekender bag through the airport. This popular Matein backpack is 20 percent off for Prime Day and is designed to fit both in the overhead compartment and under the seat in front of you, so it can work as your personal item on most airlines. With plenty of pockets and compartments to stay organized, this backpack is capable of carrying a week’s worth of clothes, according to reviewers.

Bagail 4 Set Compression Packing Cubes

For just $17, overpackers can finally get everything they need into one bag, thanks to these Bagail packing cubes. I started using compression packing cubes last year during a trip to Italy, and I’ve never looked back. I was able to fit 10 days’ worth of clothes into my carry-on suitcase — including heels and a dress for a wedding — thanks to the compression design. I also love that these packing cubes keep my clothes organized, which is especially ideal when you’re traveling to different places during your trip — I went to Venice, Florence, and Lake Como on this trip, and my luggage stayed neat the entire time. This set includes four cubes of three different sizes, perfect for holding everything from jeans to underwear and socks.

Suuson Upgraded 3-in-1 Car Phone Holder Mount

If you’re planning any road trips this fall (there’s still time to catch some gorgeous foliage), then investing in a phone holder for your car is a smart (and safe) idea. This mount is an incredible 81 percent off after using the on-site coupon, making it just $12. It can be mounted two ways: attached to your air vent or suctioned to the windshield or dashboard. The arm is also adjustable so you can customize it for the best angle while you drive. 

Redfly Travel Bottles for Toiletries

Never buy expensive travel-sized toiletries again thanks to this bottle set on sale for just $7. It features four squeezable bottles that neatly pack away in the included clear toiletry bag. Each three-ounce bottle is easy to fill, while the silicone tube makes it a breeze to squeeze out liquids. Each bottle is a different color so you can distinguish your shampoo from your conditioner from your face wash, and the caps have a three-layer leak-proof design so you won’t have to worry about spills. 

Travel Inspira Luggage Scale

There are several reasons why this $10 luggage scale is the top-rated one on Amazon: it’s compact, easy to use, and accurate. If you’re headed out on a long trip, chances are you’ll return home with more than you brought (hello, souvenirs!). Packing this luggage scale will ensure that you don’t go over the weight limit — and if you are over, you can add a checked bag to your ticket before paying pricey fees at the airport. 

Lillusory Oversized Soft Knit Cardigan

With temperatures cooling down, you can’t go wrong with packing a soft, cozy cardigan on your next trip. On sale for almost half off, this Lillusory cardigan has a comfortable oversized fit, as well as deep pockets for holding your phone. It’s available in over 20 colors, including neutrals, eye-catching hues like hot pink, and stylish stripes. Wear it on the plane for a top layer to take on or off, or pack it in your bag to bring out on a chilly evening. And be sure to add the on-site coupon for an even greater discount.

Banelu Small Sling Backpack Crossbody

Whether you’re hitting theme parks like I am this December or you’re planning on long days of sightseeing, this sling bag is a great choice for easily toting your belongings around. The nylon material can withstand a lot of wear and tear, from rainy days to spills, and the adjustable strap will allow you to get the perfect fit. With an average 4.4-star rating, this crossbody is praised by shoppers for being surprisingly spacious and comfortable for all-day wear. At just $9 for Prime Day, it’s a no-brainer to add to your cart.

Miroposs Rechargeable Makeup Mirror

I’ve had enough traveling experiences where there’s either poor lighting or not enough mirrors to properly do my makeup. A light-up travel makeup mirror is the solution, and this one, which is on sale for $17, is a perfect pick. It offers three light settings — cool, warm, and natural — and it props up on its own so you can stand it just about anywhere. It also includes a 10-times magnifying mirror if you’re doing your eyeliner or tweezing your brows. Shoppers rave about the long-lasting battery life, saying they could go weeks without needing to recharge.

Anker USB-C Portable Charger

Portable chargers are a must-have for travel days when your battery life is drained by using Google Maps. This Anker portable charger is so convenient because you don’t have to worry about packing your cord — it plugs right into your phone. It works quickly, and it holds up to a 79 percent charge, depending on your phone type. The USB-C design means it’ll work on newer iPhones, AirPods, and Android devices, so make sure you have the right charger before getting this (Anker’s lightning port charger will work on older iPhone models).

Bagsmart Large Gym Bag

I love a travel bag that can do double duty in my non-traveling life, too, like this quilted option from Bagsmart. With one large main compartment and nine pockets, this bag has enough space to fit your belongings and keep them organized. You can also tote it two ways, either with one shoulder strap or two carrying handles. Yoga and gym goers will like the buckle on top, which can hold an exercise mat. The size pocket can also hold your water bottle, perfect for both traveling and going to the gym. For under $40, it’s a total steal for a spacious bag.
