33 Incredibly Smart Travel Products You’ll Wish You Bought Sooner

Review: "Saw another traveler using one of these on my last flight and had to have one. They work great! I even used it on the chair in the airport at my gate! I had a little girl watching a movie with me over my shoulder lol. You'll get a ton of jealous/curious looks. I even had 2 people on my flight ask me about it. Just know, when you reposition it, the clicking is a little loud. Seriously, buy this now!" — Amy

Review: "I travel quite often and this made me feel safe. The video was very helpful with the instructions and I had no issues installing it." — Bowmangirl

Review: "I hate using plastic bottled water and throwing away so much plastic. I’ve been using refillable water bottles for years and wanted something for airport travel. This bottle does the job as I can throw it in my carry-on, empty and folded, and fell from water fountains around the airport... I will keep using it for airport. Travel as it does a great job." — Andreea

Review: "If I could be the spokesperson, I totally would. This is pure genius. Creating ample space, so that I don’t have to use the tray table, or when one is not available. I have loaded so much stuff onto it, including, placing items in between the window and the actual holder. I’m surprised as to how much weight he can actually withstand. I never have encountered a crewmember that has told me to remove it at any time. Most crewmembers actually get other crewmembers to take a look so they can take a picture because it just blows their mind." — Amazon Customer

Review: "This product is amazing! Its small and compact and the perfect item to keep everything organized for traveling! We are headed to Disney and needed something easy and durable for in the park! It’s easy to open and close, and stays shut well! Very impressed with the quality and extremely functional fits easily in a purse or even a fanny pack!" — Brittany & Phillip

Review: "Loved this! It felt so much better to have a foot rest and kept my feet warm as well when cabin was cold. Easy to pack, but even easier if you line your bag instead of using the included bag. Love this item! Game changer for me." - caltic

Review: "These bags are amazing! You save a ton of room in your luggage by using these. I have pack cubes and nothing wrong with them and I'll continue to use them, but for jeans and shirts, this is the way to go! In the pictures I have male clothing, 9 jeans, 15 shirts (different thickness.)" — IshopALOT

Review: "Anyone who travels a lot will love this product! This was a great purchase! It's a great size and I love that it is two sided, so more space for all your wires! There's even space for you to put your power bank in, which is great for traveling." — MysteryChick

Review: " I recently took a LifeStraw out for a test on a backcountry hike in the Rocky Mountains. Every stream, lake, or other water source that I came across I stopped for a drink. I was drinking fresh snow melt and also from lakes that are home to beavers and other wildlife. There was no added taste to the water and I didn't get sick during or after the trip... Overall, the LifeStraw is awesome and I recommend it to every backcountry hiker that I know." — Charlie

Review: "Absolutely love this travel razor! I originally purchased this for an upcoming trip but I love it so much I am now using it as my daily razor! Personally, I think it's a better fit in my hand than a regular longer handled razor." — Amy Martinsen

Review: "My daughter and I tend to travel a lot, so it is essential for me to have everything she needs in one place since sometimes we leave out of town last minute. I bought it because I wanted to be able to see everything she had to ensure I was never missing anything, and i am happy with my decision... I don’t think I could ever go out without having it. It makes trips so much easier because I know she is good and has what she needs for our time away. Highly recommend!" — Glenda Cordoba

Review: "I love these atomizers. They are easy to fill, and great for travel or to keep in my purse when I’m out and need a fragrance refresher. I had no leakage when filling them, and none leaked in my purse as a few have mentioned. The colors are very pretty and I decided to label them so I can remember which fragrance it holds. They are lightweight which is good. I also purchased a second set to have enough for all my favorite fragrances." — CCH

Review: "These waterproof phone pouches are great. The picture and video quality are very nice. I was afraid that the sounds were going to be too muffled in the video but I think it sounds great. I also utilized them for storing our hotel keys, car keys, debit cards and cash while jumping the waves. Definitely a must have for your upcoming vacation!" — WD

Review: "I purchased this portable charger for a trip to the UK just incase I found myself needing to charge any of my devices.. and honestly I'm so happy I decided to purchase, this small compact charger came in so handy while I was out in about in Central london, whether I needed to charge my phone or camera it came in super handy. Also the build of it is very good, has a good weight to it and doesn't feel cheap, small and compact to fit in a crossbows bag or fannypack, and charges devices super quick!!" — Bradee

Review: "I usually get luggage locks that have a key, but I’ve been traveling more so it was becoming a hassle. The combination was easy to set, it looks well made, and is pretty sturdy." — Victoria

Review: "I read a glowing review about the Trtl pillow a while back, added it to my Amazon cart, and forgot about it. Having several upcoming international flights, I decided to give it a shot. I’m so glad I did! Most travel pillows hurt my neck but this one is very comfortable. It was a little tricky to use initially but I love it now that I got the hang of putting it on. Strongly recommend!" - Kristen

Review: "I love this mask. It’s light, comfortable and stays in place. The strap is nice and adjusts to your size comfortably... The fabric is soft and the mask itself is a soft memory like foam. It comes with one pair of disposable ear plugs and a satin bag. I bought one for my mom and I ended up buying myself one too cuz I loved it so much!" — BlancoM

Review: "I have both a 40 oz and a 32 oz water bottle because sometimes I need to carry extra water and it's not always easy to carry multiple water bottles around with you. This bag makes it easy to walk around anywhere or hike a trail with a bottle of water plus ID and keys and any other necessities. I'll use it on flights as my purse too, and pack my real purse inside of a carry-on. I love it!" - Diane Jarecki

Review: "Update after a travel: took it on my trip to Europe. I went carry-on only and this tube was a true gem! I fit one full outfit in it and it’s so valuable when traveling with only carry-on luggage. On the plane I used it as an arm support? It’s really helpful on a 10 hours flight. Definitely worth to add to the travel set up! What an excellent idea to take something out of the weighted luggage!!!" — Happy Shopper

Review: "I got my iWalk before heading to Arizona to see the Grand Canyon and let me tell you, this is definitely a smart purchase. I loved it so much I ordered a second one for my nephew. I love that it's small enough to throw in your pocket or purse. This makes a great addition to your travel items and holds a charge very well." — treblecl8f

Review: "This product worked flawlessly! I travel often for work, and hated that I couldn’t use my Apple AirPods on the airplane to watch in-screen entertainment movies, until I discovered the AirFly Pro. I paired these with a dummy device before traveling in order to create the initial connection. Once I got on the airplane, I plugged the AirFly Pro transmitter into the headphone jack, turned on my AirPods, and it instantly connected." — Bill MacDonald

Review: "These sleep headphones are just what I was looking for to take with me when I travel. I like that I can comfortably wear them and listen to some white noise that helps me drift off to sleep. They are lightweight and a soft material. I would recommend!" - Anne

Review: "These travel bottles are a game-changer! Compact, leak-proof, and easy to fill, they've become my go-to for every trip. The silicone material is durable yet flexible, making them a breeze to squeeze out every last drop of my favorite toiletries. No spills, no mess—just convenient travel essentials. Highly recommend" - Sydney Hobbs

Review: "I have traveled quite a bit with this charger and I can confirm it is super durable. While I try to be gentle with my things, it’s inevitable, especially when traveling with a toddler, that things take a beating. The quality is unmatched... I highly recommend this charger, especially if you intend to travel with it." — Nicole

Review: "Love this little travel jewelry box! Holds several necklaces, rings, earrings and more. Perfect size to take when traveling!" — Lauren Bryan

Review: "We needed something small to carry the car seat around the airport and then on the plane this worked out perfectly. The fact it packs down to square makes it super easy. The included bungee cords were enough but you need to configure them correctly." - Jacob W

Review: "Great fit and way to organize packing. I was able to fit size 10 men shoes and Dr. Martens (low top) but if you know Martens are bulky shoes but they were able to fit inside." — Tisha

Review: "I travel a lot and always find myself trying to weigh my luggage on my bathroom scale. This is so easy and hooks onto any size suitcase handle. I tried it when traveling this week and it came out the same weight as the airline scales. It is easy to read and says 'hold' when it is ready." — kathy cavanagh

Review: "I love these bands and held my very heavy towel to the beach loungers at the pool and beach. I even looped small items through them such as a headband, sunglasses, and smaller hand towels instead of putting them on my lounger or on the sand. They don’t break in the luggage like clips do." — airforcebrat

Review: "We used it on a recent air travel trip that had 1 layover. The GB Pockit all city was perfectly easy to fold and unfold in a flash. Perfect size to store in overhead luggage bin on Southwest. My child is 5 years old for reference, about 43” and 38 lbs. The underneath storage is small but useful." - Jennifer

Review: "I'm obsessed with having a properly packed suitcase, and getting the most amount of clothing in the smallest bag possible is a fun challenge for me... These long, skinny but DEEP packing rectangles, allowed me to fold my shorts and dresses for vacation, the way I wanted to, with minimal wrinkles. Each 'cube' got a clothing type, and it was so easy to stay organized. My traveling partner was jealous that I could fit like 2 weeks worth of clothes in a carry on. Love them." — Amanda Riggs

Review: "We used these on our trip to Europe! They were used in our suitcases! the app was easy to use and we were notified every time our luggage was moved! I also put them in my purse when we were traveling just in case l need to locate it!" — KS2018

Review: "Wow, what a difference this made while traveling. Kept my hands free, and I didn't have to keep going in my purse/backpack for phone,, travel documents or passport. I will not travel without it. I bought it on a whim but didn't realize how much I really needed it. I kept it on my carry on, and it was no issue at all when boarding the plane to remove it (with a line of people behind me waiting for me to put my carry on in overhead container). I just took out my drink and slipped it up and off the handle." — LisalouRN
