Tuesday kicked off Amazon’s annual Prime Day Big Deals event – the second of two annual Prime Day sales. Whether you’re looking to treat yourself or get a gift for your favorite traveler, use our roundup of Amazon travel gear deals to zero in on the deals worth caring about.
We’ll be updating this page regularly over the next few days with the best deals available. But make sure to check the Amazon Prime Day sale page throughout the day as new sales, discounts, and offers are constantly being added. You’ll need to be an Amazon Prime member to get in on these deals – you can get a free 30-day trial of Amazon Prime if you don’t have it already.
Got credit card points from American Express? These deals could get even cheaper: Apply a few hundred points and get up to 50% off if you’re targeted for this money-saving Amex promo!
Plus, make sure to check your Amex offers. There is a new offer for Amazon purchases, allowing you to earn 1,000 Membership Rewards points after spending $40 or more (which you can use up to three times). Another, similar offer gets you 1,200 points after spending $150-plus – which, again, you can use up to three times.
But act fast: This sale ends today – Wednesday, Oct. 7! Without further ado, here’s our running list of the best travel deals from Amazon’s Prime Day.

- Apple AirPods Pro 3 for $179.99 – a 28% discount
- Apple AirPods Max 2 for as low as $429 – a 22% discount
Bose QuietComfort Noise-Canceling Headphones
Bose makes some of the best noise-canceling headphones for frequent travelers in the world. Prices on one of their best Bluetooth headsets don’t get much cheaper than this.
You can currently buy a pair of Bose QuietComfort noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones for as low as $169. That’s a record low price – and nearly $200 off the list price – for one of Bose’s top products with unbeatable noise cancellation. These are the quintessential travel headphones that our entire team swears by.
Buy them on Amazon from $169 (was $359)
AirFly to Connect Your Bluetooth Headphones
A set of Bluetooth headphones alone won’t do you much good on the plane – few airlines offer Bluetooth connectivity with their seatback screens. Here’s the solution.
You can buy the AirFly SE Bluetooth transmitter and receiver kit for just $26.55. That’s 24% off its normal $34.97 price tag.
Buy it on Amazon for $27.95 (was $34.97)
Just plug this handy dongle into the audio port on your screen, connect your Bluetooth headphones of choice, and enjoy! This version comes with a handy carrying case as well as an audio adapter, which you may need on some planes.
The upgraded AirFly Pro 2 Deluxe – with a longer battery life and ability to simultaneously connect two Bluetooth headsets – is also on sale for $48.99, a 30% discount for Prime Day.
Concerned about your luggage getting lost? Apple AirTags are a must-have travel accessory, and they’re on sale at their cheapest-ever price right now.
You can buy a four-pack of AirTags (2nd Generation) for $89 – down from the $99 list price. This is one of the best deals we’ve seen on Apple’s latest and greatest location-tracking technology.
Buy them on Amazon for $89 (was $99)
Anker Power Banks Up to 55% Off
Anker makes some of the best power banks to keep your devices charged while on the go. And a metric ton of them are on sale for this Amazon Prime Day Sale, including:
- A 10,000 mAh Powerbank (which will recharge an iPhone 17 or 18 twice) for just $18.99!
- A 5,000mAh charger (good for up to one full iPhone recharge) that triples as a magnetic stand and phone holder for as low as $24.68 – down from $47.99!
- A 10,000mAh Qi2-certified 15W portable magnetic charger. If you have an iPhone with Magsafe, this is a handy travel accessory priced at $63.99 – down from $79.99.
Anker Universal Power Adapter
Long gone are the days when you needed a four-piece system to stay plugged in across the globe. There are plenty of single-unit options that allow you to charge your devices no matter where you rest your head. Our new favorite is the Anker Nano Travel Adapter, which is on sale for just $19.99 – 23% off.
This adapter is a fraction of the size of even some of the best models on the market. Yet it’s still got plenty of ports to keep you charged: Two USB-A slots, two fast-charging USB-C sockets, plus a standard AC outlet to plug in bigger devices.
Unless if you’re traveling with heavy-duty electronics, this can be the one-and-done solution for staying powered up on international travels.
Buy it on Amazon from $19.99 (was $25.99)
Samsonite Luggage for 40% Off!
Samson? Samsonite? We were way off.
Anyway, Amazon’s got a huge sale on luggage from one of the most trusted names in travel gear. You can currently buy a Samsonite Omni 2 24-Inch hardside checked bag for just $119.98 – 40% off the normal price!
Get it on Amazon from $119.98 (was $209.99)
Away Carry-On Luggage under $200
Away makes some of the best bags you’ll find with a stellar warranty. If you’re in the market for a carry-on-sized bag, this is a great opportunity to pick one up. Amazon is selling both the Away Sky Blue and Palm Green colors for just $192 – a 30% discount from the normal $275 price tag.
The Sky Blue color is on sale in the large checked bag size (29″) for just $304 – a 30% discount from the typical $435 price point.
TRTL Travel Pillow for Under $50
It may look goofy, but travelers swear by the TRTL travel pillow. And it’s on sale for 20% off, bringing the final price down to $47.99.
That’s a nice discount from the usual $59.99 price tag. Several members of the Thrifty Traveler team use this pillow during long-haul flights and will never use another travel pillow again.
Buy it on Amazon from $47.99 (was $59.99)
Bottom Line
Don’t wait on any of these deals: They are only good through the end of the day (Wednesday, Oct. 7) … but they could disappear even sooner as items sell out. Make sure to check the Amazon Prime Day page throughout the day as new offers are constantly being added.
We will be updating this page as more deals come and go.

Sorry about that! Our link has been updated.
Looks to me like the cheapest price on Amazon for The quiet comfort headphones is $229 unless your link is mistaken
My AirPods Pro died after nearly two years of use (I purchased them from the Apple Store). I used them most days for one to three hours a day. I also have the Bose noise cancelling headphones that I purchased a year prior to my Apple AirPods. My Bose are still going strong.
How do you carry the carbon monoxide detector when there are no batteries allowed?
You can put it in your carry on.
Great to see an article on this. If there’s a good buy on a wallet/money clip that you guys best recommend for travel could you add it to the list?
I love getting your emails! Great information and travel deals. And today’s article for Amazon Prime allowed me to see and buy the deal on Bose headphones. Thank you.
Great to hear, Roy!
