If you’ve fallen victim to subpar suitcases that can’t withstand basic travel — broken wheels, scratched exteriors, handles that don’t have much give — it may be time for an upgrade.
Luckily for you (and us), top travel brand, Away, is now available on Amazon. Right now, a variety of their bestselling products are available on the retailers’ site, from classic carry-ons to a cosmetics case.
No matter if you’re taking a quick weekend getaway or traveling for over a month, Away has product offerings for every type of trip. See below for editor-loved picks and other must-have travel items.

Away Small Toiletry Bag
Meant for shorter trips (think long weekends, overnighters, etc.), this toiletry bag is perfect for stashing everything you need in a pinch.
It unzips to reveal two pockets: a mesh one on one side, and a clear zippered pocket on the other. It’s small enough to store medicine, small makeup products for quick touch-ups, sanitizing wipes and more you may need within reach.
Away Cosmetics Bag
Away is hoping to resolve organization woes with this cosmetics bag — helping you say goodbye to out-of-place products.
It has spots to store five makeup brushes, which can also be removed to fold up into the larger zippered compartment. Said compartment can fit everything else you need — shampoos, concealers, makeup wipes and more.
Away The Everywhere Zip Backpack
Whether you’re using this backpack as your everyday work bag or for overnight trips, it promises to keep everything inside safe thanks to features such as water-repellant fabric and magnetic zippers that lock into place.
A mesh fabric lines the backside as a means of preventing heat from getting trapped. Reviewers call this bag a “game changer” due to how much they’re able to fit inside.
Away The Everywhere Bag
It’s hard to resist a duffel bag that comes with all the bells and whistles. Its features include a designated padded laptop pocket, removable crossbody strap, an interior key ring for keeping keys safe while you’re away, multiple interior pockets, a trolley sleeve for remaining hands-free and more.
It also slides easily under airline seats to serve as a personal item, and reviewers rave about its “sturdy” construction and overall “durability.”
Away The Carry-On
Writer Emma Stessman has nothing but great things to say about this suitcase, which she says is one of the best birthday presents she’s ever received.
“I almost always exclusively travel with a carry-on,” she says. “And this one manages to fit everything I need, including multiple full outfits and shoes. I’ve used it on countless vacations at this point, from two-week beach vacations to weekend roadtrips, and it has remained in surprisingly good condition.”
Away The Bigger Carry-On
The bigger version of their standard carry-on luggage meets the standards of 28 major airlines, including American Airlines, Delta, United and more.
Buckles on the inside help to compress clothing when strapped in, helping you pack as much as you can (even though the brand recommends using this suitcase for trips as little as four days, or as long as seven). This is “all I use,” according to editorial director Adrianna Brach.
Away Medium Checked Luggage
For longer trips, put your trust in this medium-sized checked suitcase. It’s made out of a durable, polycarbonate shell and has a TSA lock for added security.
The brand suggests using this suitcase for two-week trips, and thanks to an interior panel that has three mesh pockets, you’re able to maximize space, fitting charging cables, socks and more within.
Away The Large Checked Luggage
Family vacations just got a whole lot easier. This suitcase is designed for trips longer than two weeks — able to fit almost 100 liters worth of clothing, shoes, gear and accessories.
It includes the same features their suitcases are known for — a TSA lock, compressive buckles, mesh pockets and a durable exterior.
Away The Trunk
For trips longer than three weeks, this XL suitcase (the largest that Away offers), features a handle on the bottom to make it easier to pull in and out of the car or baggage claim.
While its size may lead you to believe this suitcase could be difficult to navigate through the airport or around the hotel, its 360-degree wheels will prove otherwise, providing an “easy spin,” according to our editors when we tested Away suitcases during Shop TODAY’s 2024 Travel Gear Awards.

Baodini Travel Mini Umbrella
This compact umbrella is easy to tuck away in case of emergency — in a work bag, diaper bag, or in the side of your car door. It’s a little bit larger than an iPhone, and comes with a carrying case for when you’re not using it.
Goaus Passport Holder
In case you missed the deadline to renew for a REAL ID — you’re going to need a more secure spot to store your passport. This holder earned the award for best innovative tech accessory during Shop TODAY’s 2025 Travel Gear Awards.
We especially love how it has a designated spot for an AirTag — serving as extra protection should you misplace it or leave it at home.
Iniu Portable Charger
This was our top pick for a portable charger — it managed to take a phone from 0 to 85% in just 90 minutes, and still had battery left over to keep going if need be.
Gonex Compression Packing Cubes
These packing cubes earned the award for best value compression packing cubes. I’ve owned these for about a year, and as an overpacker, I can attest to their durability.
They have two zippers — one traditional one that zips up the cube itself, and another one that compresses the cube, helping you fit more within.
Loop Quiet 2 Ear Plugs
Associate editor Shannon Garlin is a big fan of Loop ear plugs — primarily for sleeping, but also for drowning out noisy neighbors or pesky passengers on planes.
They’re made with a comfortable silicone that helps them sit securely in your ears, and come with multiple sizes so you can find a preferred fit.
Case-Mate Phone Crossbody Chain
Long gone are the days of misplacing your phone. Easily keep track of it with this crossbody-like keychain that clips into the bottom of your phone, without blocking the charging port. It can be worn one of two ways: over your shoulder or diagonally across your body.
Bombas Everyday Compression Socks
“My calves were pretty sore from a workout the day before and I feel like the socks helped to lessen the achiness I felt,” says Stessman, who was “seriously impressed” with these compression socks. “While you can definitely feel the compression, it wasn’t overly tight. Meaning, I wasn’t in any rush to take them off.”
They’re made primarily out of Supima cotton, and don’t have a toe seam, which Stessman named one of her favorite features.
