This luggage is ready for adventure. At 12.4-pounds, the hardside zip-up spinner is sturdy enough to keep its contents secure, yet is still light on its feet with 360-degree wheels. The split-open clamshell main compartment gives you the flexibility to pack however you wish, whether you prefer to roll or stack your clothing. Plus its divider panel has a zip enclosure and pockets for shoes. Best of all, it’s also expandable to make sure no souvenir gets left behind.

Finding an ideal water bottle on the go can be tricky. Some are too hefty, others spill easily. The solution? Owala’s FreeSip. The two-step closure, with a snap carrying handle that doubles as a lock, plus a one-touch button that opens the main compartment, assures that not one drop of liquid will sneak out. You have the option of sipping through the built-in straw or taking a swig through the larger opening, and the triple-layer insulation keeps your liquids cold for 24 hours.

The puzzle of figuring out how to most efficiently pack differently shaped items into one boxy suitcase can be frustrating—until you discover the beauty of packing cubes.

Each has a handle so you can quickly transfer your items from your suitcase to a hotel room drawer, making packing and unpacking a cinch.

Whether you’re looking to catch some Zs aboard a train or in a hotel room, this four-piece set has everything you need to ensure you don’t lose sleep while away from home. Its main attraction is the memory foam pillow that’s designed to cradle your entire head and neck, and even has a snap closure to make sure it stays in place. But it also comes with an eye mask and earplugs to block out any distractions, as well as a mesh carry case so everything stays together.

This set of eight containers makes sticking to the TSA limits simple. With two 3-ounce flip-top bottles, a 3-ounce tube, a 2-ounce spray bottle, and three various sized jars, the lightweight containers are easy to refill between every trip. Labels are included for easy identification.

Never get left out in the rain with this packable umbrella that’s only eight inches when folded, but opens up to 39-inch coverage. The top is coated with a special layer designed to wick away water, and the Totes lifetime warranty offers peace of mind that the umbrella won’t break at the first strong breeze.

This Walmart exclusive toiletry bag is packed with pockets to keep your self-care essentials organized, including four interior pockets in the main compartment and two zippered side access compartments. Durable and lightweight, the bag also has a built-in metal hook so it can be hung up anywhere for easy access.

International jetsetters are well aware of the hassle it can take to plug in your devices with various outlet types around the world. This single device combines the four most common plugs into one unit, and includes a USB port to charge electronics. Plus, it has a surge protector so varying voltage won’t fry your gadgets or curling iron.

Small but mighty, this one-pound power bank has a 20,000 mAh “ultra-high” capacity, meaning it’s able to power your phones and tables several times over. It optimizes charging based on your device’s requirements, and features two USB ports, so you and your travel buddy can charge at the same time.
