The Latest and Greatest Travel Products You Need But Probably Don’t Already Have

11 of The Best Travel Products You’ll Need To Get in 2024

Traveling to new places is fun but sometimes the getting there is challenging. After traveling to 28 countries and countless U.S. cities with our now 10 year old daughter we’ve learned a thing or two about how to make travel more comfortable and packing more space efficient.  And after trying and testing out all the latest travel gadgets and sometimes useless travel products out there nowadays, I can confidently share with you only the best that have made it past the rugged travels, the test of time and comparison shopping. And I’m not talking about my favorite little candle, scarf or blanket here.  I’m talking about the latest advances, upgrades and inventions that you probably don’t already have! Here are the fab finds that should be on YOUR travel shopping list for 2024.

1).  Rydir wraps 

Don’t you hate when you’re taking a turn with your rolling suitcase and the bag you had on top falls over spilling all its contents?  To prevent this, and to prevent the clumsiness of having to carry all the extra things you want to carry onto your plane (but that won’t fit into your carryon suitcase), you might think buying that clip, the cup holder, or baggage straps are a good idea.  But those only specialize in holding one thing.  The Rydir wrap will hold it ALL and more.  travel hacks, travel products, best travel productsIt holds weirdly shaped items like the Vietnamese cone-shaped hat I bought while traveling Vietnam (pictured above for instance).  And it will keep your hands free of having to carry the blanket,  the neck pillow, and the water bottle at the airport.  It’s such a simple invention with its stretchy tube top-like design. But it brilliantly holds so much while also packing away into a weightless, bundle when you don’t need it.  AND did you realize, it doubles as cover for your precious designer bags?  I always found it so cringy that you end up having to stowe away your bag under the seat.  This will protect your purse.  Simply wash the Rydir afterwards.  

2).  Universal power adaptor

Back in the day, you might have had to purchase and collect separate adaptors based on whatever country you were planning to visit.  No need to stock a full suite of power adaptors anymore.  Buy this all-in-one and just store it in your suitcase and you’ll be ready to safely charge up at every destination.  Every frequent flier needs this!  Here is the best-selling, highest rated one that covers more than 200 countries.  It’s on sale now here. 

3).  Upgraded packing cubes 

Upgrade your old packing cubes to the latest compression packing cubes with hanging hooks and you’ll never look back!  Pack more in with the zipper compression and layering system. Then at the hotel, forget individually transfer items into the closet or cabinets.  Just pull this out and hang.  Instantly, you’re unpacked AND organized. You no longer have to throw around all the contents of your luggage to find what you were looking for!  It makes repacking so quick and mindless too. travel hacks, packing cubes, best packing cubes, pink packing cubes, compression packing cubes

IDEA!  Add 1head-to-toe fully styled outfit for each tier.  Or use each layer to easily organize each family member’s beach/swim items….or maybe it’s the underwear/sock drawer for each person.  Tell me in the comments how you’d you use this convenient system.  It’s 20% off right now, so add to cart ASAP here!

4).  Amazon FireTV stick 4k Max streaming

My husband showed me the joys of this remote and magical USB stick so I have to give him credit for this fab find.  You know how when you travel, you have to either sift through all the shows in another language, or if you’re in your country, you miss getting to skip through all the commercials and having access to your favorite streaming services?  No need to splurge on expensive on-demand movies. No need to pine over your missed favorite shows. This small USB-powered device gives you access to all your favorite pre-recorded shows and movies wherever you are in the world. It’s currently on sale here.

5).  Digital luggage scale

Overweight baggage fees are bound to happen when you stuff your baggage, shop at your new destination and then have no way to weigh your check in bags. Save yourself the overage fees at the airport and the embarrassment of having to unload your suitcase in front of everyone by buying this cheap, portable luggage scale. Just $6.99 HERE.travel hacks, travel must haves, weigh our luggageYou’ll use this every trip!

6).  Noise cancellation headphones and earplugs

No matter whether it’s a crowded, train or bus, a crying baby on a plane or too thin hotel room walls, there will be a time when you simply want to drown the noise out. Concentrate, sleep and rest better with these noise cancelling headphones which of course will double as your personal speakers for that music, podcast or ebook you are into.  BONUS!  You can tune out the kids when at home too! best travel hacks, best travel products These pretty blue ones are currently on sale with amazing reviews and are on my list!

7).  Best neck pillow

Do you still have the standard, U-shaped neck pillow?  Then you know the frustration of it not offering enough support to keep your head neck and chin in place and/or the discomfort of the back of the neck being so full that you end up having your head pushed forward because of the position of the airplane seat.  Time for an upgrade!  This Bcozzy is a total game changer for stability, versatility, and comfort.  I attribute my full night’s sleep to it in fact during my last international trip!  Trust me and the almost 29,000 fans who’ve reviewed it positively!  It’s also machine washable, and it comes in variety of sizes and colors too. I’m getting an extra one in a kids’ size cuz it’s perfect for car rides too! Shop here. TRAVEL HACKS, TRAVEL PRODUCTS, AIRPLANE PILLOW

8).  Hanging amenity case

Hotel counter space is notoriously small especially when you’re traveling with others.  Avoid having to fight for space on the counter to lay your toiletries down with the latest hanging models.  Hold all your hair, beauty and skincare needs without taking up any valuable space.  You can easily hang it from the bathroom mirror or any door and all the little compartments will make getting ready so much easier.  Here is a chic one at an affordable price with clear lining so you can easily spot what you need.  What color would you pick?   Beige, black, pink, mauve, grey or this blue (my favorite)?travel hacks, makeup organizer, amenity case, chic amenity case, toiletry organizer

9).  Best portable charger + electronic organizer

The organizer is a must with all the cords, chargers and adapters a family needs these days.  Never get all your cords and chargers tangled again and never fumble around trying to find your airpods at the bottom of your bag.  It is waterproof in case of spills too.  Pick your favorite color here. organizers, cord organizer, travel tips

10).  Just 1 cordless, rechargeable toothbrush for the whole family

No need to bring the toothbrush charging attachment anymore, and no need to pack separate toothbrushes for everyone, just different heads.  Pack one of these battery operated toothbrushes that come with its own cover instead and one charge will last 90 days. It’s on sale and comes in a variety of colors here. trAVEL HACKS, MUST BUY TRAVEL ITEMS, BEST TRAVEL PRODUCTS, CORDLESS TOOTHBRUSH
