We all love to escape, right? I know you’re already planning your next vacation. But investing in travel gear can quickly become expensive. Things can add up. And that’s before you even get on the plane! Luckily, I shop for travel products for a living, and Walmart’s Holiday Deals event offers amazing discounts on everything from suitcases to portable chargers. I found it. You can find mileage-approved merchandise at nearly 80% off. These are my favorite products to use on this trip and on my next trip.
Here’s what you can expect on the travel front. If you’re looking for a compact but spacious weekender bag that fits under your airplane seat, I recommend this duffel bag, which retails for just $5. Need packing cubes to stay organized? Get this 8-piece set of toiletry bags, shoe bags, and more for just $14. Luggage sets seem to be on sale everywhere right now, but few are as low as $400 off like this hard-sided option from Travel House. Stolen travel technology items, including headphones, were also found.

When traveling by plane, the bag you use most often is where you keep your passport, wallet, and valuables, and when you store them, you’re likely to keep them under your seat, within easy reach.

It also has plenty of features like wet/dry pockets, a front phone compartment, and a trolley sleeve for easy carrying.
“Lightweight and durable,” one five-star reviewer wrote. “It’s easy to fold and unfold. It fits easily over the handle of a suitcase and is easy to carry on a plane. I’ve used it to hold my medication, valuables, and overnight items.”

Airplanes aren’t the most comfortable space to enjoy anything, so finding products that make the cabin a little more comfortable can be very helpful. This set includes an ergonomic neck pillow to support your neck and face, a contoured eye mask to block out the sun’s rays (especially on flights where you’ll get red eye), and an eye mask to block out the distracting (and unavoidable) rays of the plane. Comes with earplugs to mask engine noise. This set also comes with a drawstring travel bag that can hold all three items.
“This pillow is so comfortable that I want to use it even when I’m not traveling!” wrote one impressed shopper. “I bought it for myself for a 10-hour flight, but as soon as it arrived in the mail, my boyfriend needed it too.”

When we see a price drop this big, we pay attention. This 3-piece luggage set includes a carry-on, medium and large checked bag, all for just $85. The sides of the piece are hard, giving it extra protection but still being lightweight. Equipped with a safe TSA lock.
One shopper said these suitcases were “essentially indestructible” after having an accident while traveling. “I took this with me to Disneyland. No, I didn’t get on the plane, but it was amazing!” one reviewer wrote. “With luggage carriers, bags flew off the top of the car, and these things, I mean, withstood the weight. Even the wheels didn’t break. If you’re looking for durability, this is it.”
