Now that we’ve almost made it to Memorial Day Weekend, my inbox and newsfeeds—as I’m sure yours are, too—are starting to be infiltrated by sale messaging. While I can take or leave most of the offers, I do think this is the perfect time for travelers to invest in luggage.
And when it comes to luggage, I’m a firm believer in two ideas: 1) Quality over quantity—the more options you have, the more likely you are to face packing decision paralysis; 2) Never buy a suitcase, duffel, toiletry bag, or tote before it’s marked down. That said, I was waiting for Away, my personal favorite luggage brand, to announce its Memorial Day sale—and it’s officially here.
Through May 26, the brand is offering up to 25% off select suitcases and bags (and no, this isn’t sponsored). I just wholeheartedly recommend the suitcases; I’ve repeatedly written about them for both Travel + Leisure and Condé Nast Traveler.
If I were in the market for a new carry-on this weekend, I’d snag either the Bigger Carry-On Flex or the Bigger Carry-On. I truly think they’re the most spacious carry-ons, and I bring the Bigger Carry-On on almost every single trip.
Below, I rounded up a few more favorites from the sale—and you can shop the entire selection here.
Away Large Check Suitcase (I’ve used this for a solid six years without any issues)
Away Featherlight Crossbody (the MVP of my trip to Alaska last year)
Away Small Toiletry Bag
