Jisulife Handheld Mini Fan

With more than 45,000 five-star reviews, this handheld mini fan is fit for summer travel in hot and humid conditions. The compact device is a fan as well as a flashlight and backup power bank. Offering up to 19 hours of cooling time on a single charge, it’s conveniently rechargeable via USB.

Bagail 8-Piece Packing Cube Set

Packing cubes are a great way to stay organized. This comes with eight different pieces so you can have one each for shoes, toiletries, and laundry. See what’s inside each by way of breathable mesh panels, so there’s no guessing the contents of each cube. Keep everything tidy during your journey as well as at your destination. 

Faleave 2-Piece Sweater Set

I’m a travel writer and this outfit is my open secret to looking polished on-the-go while still feeling as comfy as I do in sweatpants (or pajamas). I have the set in apricot, which looks more like an off-white. On a recent trip, I swapped flats for wedges and headed straight from the airport to dinner wearing this versatile outfit. 

STM 3-in-1 Charge Tree

With this three-in-one charging gadget, you can charge your phone, AirPods, and Apple Watch all at the same time. The design is compact and foldable, so you can slip it into your suitcase easily with minimal bulk and fuss. Reviewers say it’s “compact and easy to use.”

TIJN Classic Aviator Sunglasses

Sunglasses are a packing essential, especially in the summer. But, they can get expensive — which makes it disheartening when they get lost or scratched. Stocking up on an affordable pair (while they’re on sale for even less) is a clutch move. The alloy metal frames and lenses are scratch-resistant, and the lenses have UV400 protection coating.

Aerothotic Strappy Sandals

Traveling almost always calls for more walking, so it’s good to have a pair of supportive shoes. This lightweight pair provides excellent arch support, an adjustable buckle for a bespoke fit, and a footbed that cushions the whole foot, from toe to heel. “They offer unparalleled comfort, durability, and style at a fraction of the cost compared to other brands,” said one five-star reviewer among this popular sandal’s 4,300 reviews.

Bandesun Snackle Box

Multicompartment plastic boxes are trending on TikTok as a way to organize lots of snacks into delightful, securely-packed surprises. Especially fun for little kids to uncover one at a time throughout a long flight, this box contains eight compartments. It’s also great for keeping other non-edible bits and bobs organized during travel, like jewelry.

Travel Inspira Digital Luggage Scale

If you’ve ever frantically rearranged things in your suitcase on an airport floor while dealing with overweight luggage and an impatient queue forming behind you, you know how helpful a personal luggage scale can be. This one is compact, lightweight, and a tiny fraction of the cost of overweight bag fees.

JREN Kids Tablet

Whatever your attitude about kids’ screen time at home, chances are you tend to relax your policies when you travel — especially for long flights or car rides. This tablet offers a way to keep the littles entertained with games, videos, and more. You can manage screen-time limits and install other parental controls, too.

Aosu Wireless Camera Doorbell

It can be hard to relax while you travel if you’re the type to worry about the state of things back home. Prime Day is an excellent time to get a video doorbell to help allay those concerns from afar. Keep your eye on your place and even interact with potential visitors from wherever you are with this smart gadget. You’ll get a live view from your doorbell along with the ability to arm and disarm it from wherever you are in the world. The doorbell is on sale, but your peace of mind is priceless. 

Riemot Luggage Handle Cup Holder

If you’re not sprinting with a cup of coffee toward your departure gate, are you even traveling? This simple-yet-effective tool helps make that situation much more manageable. It connects easily to the handle of any rolling luggage, providing pockets to hold two drinks, plus a third pocket for other essentials. Adjust the band easily to get a snug fit on most luggage handle types. When you’re not toting around a latte, it’s a great place to keep your important travel documents, phone, and AirPods.

INIU Portable Charger

A backup charger may just become an essential item on your packing list. Doubt it? Just wait until you’re abroad, trying to order an Uber after a long flight with your phone on 1%.  With well over 100,000 ratings, this popular charger can keep you juiced up, helping you avoid sticky situations. It has USB-C ports both in and out.

Yesno Wide-leg Jumpsuit

This wide-leg jumpsuit is perfect for long flights or road trips. It’s also a versatile option you can easily dress up and layer. The straps are adjustable and it even has pockets to stash all your travel essentials. The breezy, loose-fitting outfit helped one reviewer stay “relatively cool in 85-degree heat in the blazing sun.”

AirGlo Portable Phone Stand

This phone stand is actually the brainchild of a flight attendant. It’s a compact, affordable gadget to help you watch movies and TV shows on long flights with your personal device, in case there’s no in-seat entertainment unit. One five-star rating praised its “amazing functionality” — for propping up other items, like a mirror, for getting ready on-the-go.

Bostanten Crossbody Bag

A crossbody bag is a stylish way to keep valuables close to your body, and away from pickpockets. This one is made of cruelty-free faux leather, so it’s durable and reasonably priced. It has five pockets and five built-in card slots as well as a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap. “Everything I need for going exploring in a new city is easily-accessible without being clunky,” one reviewer wrote.
