Why pack this: Compact universal multi-charger
This universal multi-charger can power up to seven devices with its two USB ports, four universal adapters, and a single US adapter. Both the input plug and output socket faces are universal, so you don’t have to worry about socket compatibility. Finally, the retractable power cable stretches 92cm, making it more versatile across different spaces or hotel rooms configurations. Buy here
Why pack this: Multi-purpose travel kettle and thermos for hot water on the go.
Whether you're travelling with a baby or don’t want to use the hotel room’s kettle, the Iona mini travel kettle allows you to boil and store hot water on the go. The 400ml capacity is sufficient for making baby formula or a cup of tea. Those travelling to cold climates would also appreciate having a hot drink at their fingertips thanks to its thermal flask build. One thing to note: This 220-240V kettle does not have universal voltage, so an adaptor may be required depending on where you’re travelling to. Buy here
Why pack this: Insulated and leakproof water bottle
Staying hydrated while you’re travelling can be a challenge. This is made more challenging if you're in a country where tap water is not safe to drink, in a remote area, or want to stay hydrated on the plane. The Hydro Flash bottle has a capacity of 950ml and its double-wall vacuum insulation keeps hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for 12 and 24 hours, respectively. Shop here
Why pack this: Lightweight sleep aid for those sound sensitive
White noise machines promote relaxation and restful sleep by masking distracting background noises and reducing the brain’s response to sudden sounds. So if you find yourself having trouble falling asleep abroad, perhaps the Oria white noise machine might help lull you to sleep faster. The palm-sized device weighs 72g hardly takes up luggage space, and is fitted with 10 sounds and seven ambient light colours that you can adjust to your preference. Buy now
Why pack this: Enjoy in-flight entertainment using your own earpiece, not the plane’s
Put plainly, wired headphones that airlines provide to access their inflight entertainment aren’t ideal. It makes your ears uncomfortably warm and the sound quality is terrible. Instead, plug in the Airfly to listen with your favourite wireless headphones or earbuds as it bridges between the two using Bluetooth. The SE model allows you to pair with one earpiece, while the Pro series connects to a maximum of two devices. Buy here
Why pack this: Reduce swelling and prevent deep vein thrombosis on flights
Compression socks may not seem like an in-flight necessity, but wearing them might save your life. The compression helps prevent deep vein thrombosis, where blood clots form in your legs due to prolonged sitting, such as on a flight. The clot could then travel to the lungs, heart or brain, causing severe damage. The Anomeo compression socks consequently support blood circulation and reduce swelling in your legs too. Buy here
Why pack this: Organise to maximise luggage space
The Peak Design packing cubes are constructed with an expansion/compression zip to maximise the amount of clothing you can pack while minimising the amount of luggage space it takes up. Pro tip: Use packing cubes to organise outfits by the day and keep clean clothes separate from dirty ones. Buy here
Why pack this: Handy if you’re packing light and need to wash your clothes, or if there’s a laundry emergency
Clothes undeniably occupy the bulk of our luggage. If you want to reduce the number of pieces you have to lug with you, then bring these laundry detergent sheets with you. These weigh next to nothing and can be used for both handwashing and machine washing. Each sheet is perforated down the middle, allowing you to adjust to your load size. Buy here
Why pack this: Expandable duffel bag for extra luggage space
This Samsonite duffel bag folds into a hand-sized pouch and expands into a large bag, ready for you to lug souvenirs and other keepsakes you've purchased on holiday. It is made of sturdy 600D PU, so the bag retains its shape while resisting damage. Buy here
American Tourister Brink 3 Pc Set A (55/70E/80E T) (RRP $219)
Why buy this: Quality luggage in multiple sizes
A sister label of Samsonite, American Tourister has been known for its quality and wallet-friendly luggage. Its luggage is now even more affordable with deals, so score yourself the three-piece set to replace the old, rickety pieces that you’ve been using and abusing.
The three-piece set includes one cabin and two check-in luggage pieces, all constructed with a durable ABS shell, a TSA-approved combination lock, antimicrobial-treated lining, and double wheels. There is also a three-year global warranty. Choose between dark green and deep water blue. Buy here
