We'll be updating this page regularly this week with the best of the best deals out there.

Got credit card points from American Express? These deals could get even cheaper: Apply just 1 Amex Membership Rewards point (or a few hundred points) and get up to 50% off if you're targeted for this money-saving Amex promo!

But act fast: This sale only runs through Wednesday, Oct. 8! Without further ado, here's our running list of the best travel deals from Amazon's Prime Big Deals Days.

Keep in mind that prices and availability may change slightly over time! All deals and prices were current as of 7:15 a.m. CST on Wednesday, Oct. 8.

Buy Apple AirPods from $89

In the market for a set of Bluetooth earbuds? Ready to upgrade your existing pair of Apple AirPods? You're in luck.

Virtually every model of AirPods is on sale for Prime Day, including some at record-low prices like: 

• Apple AirPods 4 for as low as $89 (or $119 for the version with active noise cancellation) – both tying record lows
• AirPods Pro 2 (the older generation) for just $169 – 32% off and one of the best prices we've seen!
• Apple AirPods Max for as low as $429 – a 22% discount

Our pick is to splurge for at least the Pros. Unlike the standard Apple AirPods, the Pros are noise-canceling, they’re water-resistant, and come with custom ear tips. Other members of our team swear by them: They’re well worth the additional money over the standard AirPods.

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 $199. That's still about $150 off the list price and the lowest price we've ever seen for one of Bose's top products with unbeatable noise cancellation. These are the quintessential travel headphones

Only Cypress Green, Moonlight Grey, Petal Pink, Sandstone, and Twilight Blue are available for $199. 

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 $28.25. That's 19% off its normal $34.99 price tag.

4 Pack of Apple AirTags for $65

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.

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 Big Spring Sale, including:

• A 10,000 mAh Powerbank (which will recharge an iPhone 15 twice) for just $15.59!
• 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 $27.99 – down from $49.99!

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 brand new 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.

This handy Kidde Carbon Monoxide Detector is just a few inches long and wide, making it easy to pack in your bag. It's battery-powered, with a warning system so you'll know when it's time to replace those AA batteries. And best of all, you can buy it for just $19.92 – 17% off the normal price.
