Gifts that make every trip feel effortless
Finding the right gift for the traveler in your life can feel like packing for a week in carry-on luggage—exciting, but tricky to get just right. The good news? We’ve done the sorting for you.
From lightweight luggage to thoughtful accessories, these are the best travel gifts for every kind of special person in your life. Designed with intention (and reviewed by many), each piece helps turn travel stress into ease, organization, and a little more joy along the way.
For the Frequent Flyer: The Bigger Carry-On
For the person who is always jetting between time zones, having a durable and reliable suitcase is everything. The Bigger Carry-On fits more while still sliding neatly into most overhead bins, making it the perfect gift for those who live half their lives at the gate. Because it offers a bit more space than a standard carry-on, it works beautifully for longer trips or those who just pack a little smarter.
Built with a durable polycarbonate shell, smooth 360° wheels, and a TSA-approved lock, it’s as functional as it is beautiful. Consider it the traveler’s upgrade they didn’t know they needed.
The perfect gift for: Jet-setters, one-bag packers, business travelers, and anyone chasing Platinum status
For the Organized Packer: The Insider Packing Cubes
No matter how far they’re going, they’ll love the gift of staying organized.The Insider Packing Cubes make it easy to separate outfits, shoes, or laundry, without adding more bulk. Thoughtfully designed to keep everything organized and exactly where you want it, they make packing (and unpacking) feel refreshingly simple. Clothes stay neatly compressed, outfits are easy to find, and your suitcase suddenly feels a lot more spacious. For frequent flyers, weekend travelers, and everyone in between, packing cubes are a gift that makes every trip smoother from the moment they zip up their suitcase.
Lightweight and breathable, they tuck perfectly inside any Away suitcase (especially The Bigger Carry-On). For frequent flyers, weekend travelers, and everyone in between, packing cubes are a gift that makes every trip smoother from the moment they zip up their suitcase.
The perfect gift for: Type-A travelers, frequent flyers, and tidy souls at heart.
For the Weekend Warrior: The Featherlight Weekender
Some trips don’t need wheels—they need ease. The Featherlight Weekender is built for quick escapes, road trips, and those spontaneous long weekends. It’s lightweight, sleek, and surprisingly spacious, with interior compartments that make packing simple. The padded laptop sleeve, separate zip-around bottom compartment, and plenty of pockets make it perfect for all of your travel needs. Sleek, easy, and built for spontaneous trips or quick weekends away—it’s a reliable go-to that looks good everywhere.
Slip it over a suitcase handle or wear it crossbody—it moves as easily as they do.
The perfect gift for: Minimal packers, last-minute adventurers, and anyone who prefers to skip baggage claim.
For the Everyday Explorer: The Mini Crossbody
Compact, functional, and built for hands-free ease. The Mini Crossbody fits just the essentials—phone, passport, wallet, keys—without weighing you down. Durable, structured, and travel-ready, it transitions seamlessly from airport gate to city stroll. While it’s compact enough to glide effortlessly through crowded airports or city streets, it’s built from Away’s signature durable polycarbonate hard shell—so whether it's zipped into your suitcase or slung over your shoulder, it can handle what you throw at it.
Why it’s a great gift: Small enough for daily use, stylish enough for every destination.
Wrap it up beautifully (and make it personal)
Make your travel gift even more special and turn any of our travel bags into a one-of-a-kind treasure with a personalized touch. Imagine a suitcase with their name in a favorite color, or perhaps a monogrammed weekender. Add a thoughtful touch that says this gift was made for them, and only them, to carry on every adventure. With options like monogrammed shells, engraved aluminum, or embroidered details on bags and accessories, you can add a simple, thoughtful touch that’s entirely their own. It’s a small detail that goes a long way—creating a piece they’ll instantly recognize at the airport and reach for on every trip. Whether it’s for a big milestone, a long-planned adventure, or a just-because moment, a customized Away bag is a practical gift that still feels personal, considered, and built to last.
With up to eight letters, a choice of colors and fonts, you can create a signature look or a hidden surprise. Because the very best gifts aren’t just for travel—they’re a part of their story. Discover our personalization options and give the traveler in your life a piece that’s uniquely theirs.
