So many compartments and I was able to just throw on." —Mesha"I was looking for something to fulfill the need of carrying around my wallet, keys, phone, wipes, and a few snacks since my children are older now, and I don't want to carry around a giant diaper bag. This was perfect, and I really liked the style and material. As previously mentioned, if you are looking for something to hold a water bottle, the side pocket will NOT do that, but it works perfectly for hand sanitizer and sunglasses." —JordanPrice: $18 (available in two colors)

I've owned at least a dozen different types of car phone mounts and was constantly frustrated with how they always felt compromised in at least one way until I'd get so frustrated I'd buy another low-priced, non-branded option. I finally decided to see what a bit more money can buy, and hot dang, this thing just works! Its stable, holds tight to my vent without damaging it, is easy to release, and even easier to clamp down. It also includes a handy magnetized cord tip to keep the cord stored behind the charger. My only regret is not going for a branded option sooner. Just buy it." —AnonymousPrice: $17.99 (originally $24.99)
A waterproof pouch your phone thanks you for in advance because it does *not* wish to engage directly in water adventures on your travels, but it does want to still tag along from a safe, dry pouch that still allows you to take photos and use the touchscreen.

So much better than taking meds." —YummmPrice: $10.99 for a 2-pack
A Welly first aid kid to give you peace of mind for any bumps and ouchies that your or the kiddos might get on the go. The colorful (and secure!) bandages are so cute that you might just want to pop one on for ~vacay aesthetic~ reasons. My fam have these in every glovebox and every travel bag.

Some Cure Hydration electrolyte powder mixes in a delish berry pomegranate flavor if you are always forgetting to hydrate yourself on your adventures. These will help make drinking water ~delicious~ and help keep you guzzlin' if you usually forget while you're traveling!

A carry-on spinner suitcase reviewers love for its hardiness and it's piggy-bank-saving price.
Promising review: "Such a great bag for the price, I purchased two! Rolls well, even when super heavy.

Promising reviews: "A noise-cancelling marvel. I purchased these specifically for their noise-canceling capabilities. I have tried seemingly endless options. The sound quality is not something I can really speak to, as I am not an audiophile. However, I purchased these as a last-ditch effort to get a good night's sleep. The proof is in the full night's sleep. I am sold. It masked my partner's snoring and the TV being blasted. It couldn't fully mask my dog's barking. I would say about 80%. If you need noise-canceling, get these." —Lena B"I spent a lot of time researching the best headphones and finally chose the Bose QuietComfort Ultra. I'm so glad I did — they're perfect in every way!" —OliviaPrice: $449.99 (available in five colors)

57 Helpful Travel Products For Anyone Hopping In Planes, Trains, And Automobiles This Season

A travel brush with a hidden compartment that'll be great for hair elastics, fashion tape, local currency, and all kinds of other little things that don't quite have a place to go in your personal item. ALSO have you tried to use a mini brush to brush your hair? I've broken, like, three of them with my mane. This is also a normal-size brush. A flat RFID-blocking fanny pack can work underneath your clothes or as just a regular waist bag. So it's a little go with the flow — within reason. An anti-theft neck wallet that's also RFID-blocking so you'll more easily navigate your cruise-ship excursions without having to keep your hands hovering over your pockets the entire time. Pickpockets exist, and you've gotta be aware of 'em, but let's focus on taking in the sights. A digital luggage scale will make sure that you aren't slammed with an overweight luggage fee (ugh) or having to move stuff from your checked bag to your carry-on to avoid said fee (also, ugh). A set of three Cadence containers that are magnetized and'll stick together in your toiletries bag AND on your metal cruise ship bathroom walls. They're super sturdy, leak-proof, and even work great for a few days' worth of vitamins or holding small jewelry. They've quickly become one of my packing go-tos. A TSA-friendly toiletries set you can easily fill, clean, and then refill with your go-to regular products. And the bag is sturdy as HECK. Or if you're not in need of containers, a clear TSA-approved toiletry bag to Lego-fit all your liquid and spreadable bbs in there with ease. Some reusable bottle bags because did you even go to the Champagne region if you didn't bring back some goodies? Even better: If your bottle breaks in this, the bag catches the spill! A 2-in-1 travel pillow and blanket in case you've found in-flight options seriously lacking and can't get any shut-eye without a cozy blanket. A Trtl travel pillow that, thanks to its scarf-like construction, you can easily adjust to your perfect comfort level and tilt angle to get some Zzzzzs while someone else gets you to where you're going. (And if you run hot, there's now a ~cool~ version.) A garment and travel bag set can cover you when you've gotta keep your outfit for your college roommate's wedding festivities tidy and wrinkle-free, and you have trust issues with airline baggage checks. It'll easily fold and unfold as you need it. A quick-drying microfiber beach towel built to shake off sand and pack small in your suitcase. No need to sneak out a hotel towel to the beach! A set of Sea Bands with a little nub that targets the acupuncture point on your wrists meant to help reduce nausea. This'll be great in case anyone gets motion sick in the car or on a boatride. A portable door lock to attach to any regular old door for your hotel, vacation rental, room in a guest house, or, well, just any door. It's super easy to install and won't damage the door. It'll be a comfort for solo travelers, especially. A set of towel clips you'll be grateful you packed once the wind kicks up as you're 20 feet away tossing a football with your pals. (And you can use it to hang up your wet swimsuit after.) A *foldable* wide-brim hat for helping you keep the sun off of your face, make your outfits look even cuter, and easily fit in your carry-on without crushing it. A Baggallini anti-theft travel backpack that'll make it harder for anyone who gets some (illegal) ideas while you're marveling at [insert picturesque view]. A compact eight-compartment pill organizer so you'll have space for all the stuff you take from all the delicious food that sometimes makes you feel bad on your travels. A roomy beach bag with a waterproof section to hold your phone, Kindle, and other items that ABSOLUTELY cannot get wet. A hard-shell roller suitcase with a pocket on the front for your laptop to make getting through the TSA line much more effortless and then resting assured that it's safe in the overhead. Plus! It's equipped with TSA-approved locks! Or a wheeled carry-on bag small enough to qualify as a personal item on super stringent airlines. It can fit underneath an airplane seat! You can avoid checking a bag, glide through security, *and* don't have to hurt your shoulder by carrying a duffel bag that'd also fit strict bag measurement policies. Take that, Spirit Airlines. A pair of quick-dry water shoes can help you traverse nearly every kind of ground you may come upon — whether it's while zip-lining, walking along a rocky beach, or just walking around the cruise ship deck. A fanny pack with a ton of storage room inside that has a long enough strap to wear crossbody *or* comfortably fit over outerwear so you can use your arms to help you balance while teetering toward a glacier. If you plan on wearing it across your chest, attach your waist buckles together with a zip-tie to prevent it from getting unclipped from your back. An *very popular* off-the-shoulder jumpsuit suited for just about any sightseeing needs. But it's also comfy enough to wear while you're getting where you're going. Gentle 2-in-1 travel flossing toothbrushes that'll fold up to half their size (every inch in your luggage counts!) and really get in there to give your mouth a super-clean feeling. Like, just-back-from-the-dentist cleaning. I always pack these for trips and their tiny flossing bristles make my travel nighttime routine a lot easier and more efficient. A portable crib canopy to create a sleep pod for your little one. And it even has pouches for a monitor and fan! Sleeping in unfamiliar places is tough enough for adults. Let's make it easier on the kids too — which in turn will also make the adults happier. A set of DEET-free handy mosquito-repelling bracelets in case the thought of putting something else on your skin besides SPF (like smelly bug repellent) sounds like a total nightmare. A portable safe for securing to a pool chair to keep your valuables safe or to keep your passport in your hotel room in case there's no safe or the safe isn't working. A stroller fan with bendable foam legs for wrapping around a stroller, car seat, or pretty much anything to keep your lil' munchkin cool as a cucumber, even when it's a gazillion degrees outside. A stick of Gold Bond Friction Defense will stop chafing caused by sweat before it even starts. It's sooo good and better than any other competitor in the thigh-saving category. Toss this in your bag and apply before you go on that long, lovely beach stroll. A CarryAround foldable cup holder you'll think you're a dang genius for buying (and you'd be right) after you easily carry back four beers from the snack bar in one hand. It'd also be smart to pack this for your next all-inclusive vacation. Lumify Eye Drops beloved by the masses who've tried other redness-reducing eye drops before. Yes, these are a bit pricier than other versions. But reviewers say it's totally worth it! Oh, and don't forget that it's also made to help relieve dry eyes. (Just because you TOOK a red eye doesn't mean that you have to put up with literal red eyes.) Some anti-pickpocketing clips that'll easily attach two zippers and make it extra difficult to quickly zip open. An Arden Cover anti-theft *and* waterproof vegan-leather purse that won't *look* like an anti-theft bag — in case that's the reason you don't already own one. Gotta love a bag that'll get you through sudden rain. An Airfly wireless transmitter that'll let you connect your Airpods or any wireless headphones to your airplane without Bluetooth! An Apple AirTag for each bag to give you some peace of mind while you wonder how your checked bag is doing in the hold below. An I Dew Care "Tap Secret" mattifying powder shampoo to tackle greasy roots without the aerosol or benzene formula. This'll even be easy to take to the bathroom toward the end of a red-eye so you can deboard feeling a bit fresher. A travel scarf with hidden storage in it that'll keep your hands free for taking pics without having to stick your phone, wallet, and keys in your back pocket. A set of compression bags that'll, yes, help you pack more stuff into your suitcase but also keep your clothes airtight against any spills. OR keep your dirty clothes away from your clean clothes and vice-versa. A fold-flat jewelry organizer if you've given up on a blocky jewelry organizer. (Same!) This design will let you easily slip your baubles into your personal item without hogging a bunch of space. A set of cooling patches can work some soothing magic for a variety of uses including (perhaps most importantly), sunburn. But it'll also help with itchiness from bug bites and poison ivy. And! They're TSA-friendly. So you can probably leave your aloe vera gel at home. A portable blackout curtain to suction onto where your staying's window to give you some deep DEEP darkness you need for sleeping. Collapsible travel hangers will help you better organize all your beautiful ensembles *and* have a legit place to hang up any clothes you launder while you're on your luxurious two-week vacation. A 4-in-1 travel adapter that'll work for a wide range of countries because you shouldn't have to google which adapters you need before every international trip. There are better things to do, like talking yourself into packing that one dress you've only worn once but MIGHT wear on this vacation. A simple luggage strap will hold your essentials like a travel pillow, jacket, personal item, and more as you scoot along through the airport and once you land. Here's to quickly gathering all your stuff post-screen and freeing up those hands! A trifold travel wallet so all your important documents are in one place and you're not wearily holding up the line when it comes time to show the TSA agent your passport and boarding pass. A pack of LeakLocks Toiletry Skins you can slip onto the tops of your full-size toiletries because, yay, you don't have to worry about liquid toiletry limits on a road trip! These little things catch any spills before they can get all over your PJs you threw in the same bag with your full-size shampoo. An electronics organizer with a place for just about every one of *your* and every member of your family's devices and corresponding cables so you don't get everything tangled up while searching for that ONE cord. A weighted sleep mask that'll help block out the reading light and/or sunlight from your neighbor's open airplane window shade while you catch up on some of that sleep you sacrificed to get the early flight. Oh, and it's weighted! A soft faux-leather tote will be the perfect personal item on the plane so you don't even have to pack it in your carry-on! And it would be useful as a day bag (of course keep your valuables zipped up concealed and tucked away inside) with plenty of room for your souvenirs. A mini lightweight flat iron to help you get your signature smooth locks, or at least tidy up your blowout you're really banking on lasting for a few days. A set of affordable, highly popular wireless Bluetooth earbuds some reviewers compare to AirPods for significantly cheaper. I was able to wear mine comfortably under my bucket hat while I slept on a very rocky bus ride from the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in Iceland. And while I was out exploring, the charging case easily fit in my coat pocket. A luggage-mounted cup caddy with a pocket for your bagel or croissant (look at you being fancy so early in the morning!) so you can steer your way to your airport gate with your caffeine in tow. A Venus travel razor that'll spare you some precious space in your bag without sacrificing quality. On a recent cruise, it didn't take up too much room on the minuscule shower shelf so I wasn't fighting for space *as* much while feeling like Buddy The Elf in the shower. An airplane seat back organizer because those seat back pockets are NEVER as big as you need them to be. With this, you can actually store your snacks, water bottle, and so much more without having to get up and get stuff out of the overhead throughout your flight. A pack of toilet seat covers can create a (colorful) barrier between your toddler's curious hands and public toilet seats at rest stops. A set of Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier packets, an electrolyte drink mix infused with potassium and vitamin C you can mix into a bottle of water to help speed up your hydration. After all, guzzling water on a flight and then having to spend half the flight in the bathroom line is never fun.

Cariuma Is Hosting an End-of-season Sale With Comfy Travel Shoes Up to 50% Off—Shop the 10 Best Deals

According to celebs and Travel + Leisure editors alike, Cariuma sneakers are the best choice to pack for your travels, no matter what your vacation has in store. Although the sustainably-made shoes are well worth their full price tags, Cariuma is currently hosting a rare end-of-season sale offering up to 50 percent off select styles, making now the best time to add a pair to your packing list if you're ready for straight-from-the-box comfort. From the shopper-adored Oca Low style to a Simpsons-inspired spin on the Naioca Pro skater sneakers, there's no shortage of travel-ready shoes on sale at Cariuma right now. With neutral shades and bright hues fully in stock, keep reading to find the 10 best footwear deals worth shopping to round out the season—starting at just $45. Breathable, lightweight, and endlessly supportive, these knit white sneakers are the dreamiest addition to your summer footwear collection now that they're on sale for 50 percent off. In classic Cariuma fashion, the insoles are crafted with moldable cork insoles that form to your unique foot shape for a perfect fit, while the exteriors are designed from self-regenerating bamboo and recycled plastics that give them an ultra-sustainable spin. The super light construction ensures they won't bog down your suitcase (although they're likely to become your top pick to wear during travel days, anyway), and the monochromatic design ensures they'll be easy to style with everything in your wardrobe. If you're instead looking for a pair of white sneakers with a little more contrast, these pebbled leather Cariuma shoes with gum soles should satisfy you—and they're also on sale for 50 percent off. The Oca Low style is one of the most popular selections on the Cariuma site, and shoppers adore it for its low-profile design and endless comfort, tied with their high-quality construction. The uppers are made from unbelievably supple pebbled leather that adds a luxe touch to these otherwise basic shoes, while the outsoles are fitted with slip-resistant rubber to keep you safe on everything from cobblestone streets to slick airport tile. Luckily, they're even available in a full range of sizes from 5 to 12.5, so you should have no trouble finding your perfect fit. After wearing these sneakers during a walking-heavy trip to Norway last year, I can confirm that the Uba Leather Sneakers are well worth the investment—and now they're half off. These skater-style shoes err on the sportier side with a chunky profile that instantly adds a cool factor to even my simplest jean and T-shirt pairings. But while they're not designed like traditional walking shoes, these sneakers are fitted with deep cupsoles that cradle your feet, as well as cork insoles that mold to your foot shape for a more comfortable wearing experience. The leather exteriors are sturdy thanks to their high-quality craftsmanship, and they're easy to slip on and off in a hurry, which is great for getting through TSA during international adventures. Shoes may now be allowed through TSA during domestic flights, but international trips will still likely require you to remove your footwear (that is, unless you're a TSA Pre-check or Clear member). So, make things easier for yourself by investing in a simple pair of slip-on shoes like this gorgeous brown leather option that's sitting at a new low $70 price tag. The heels are designed with loops to help slide them on in a rush, and the stretchy uppers further aid their convenience as travel day footwear. The soft, supple leather exteriors will make these shoes one of the most well-crafted pairs in your collection, and you'll find the neutral coloring makes them a versatile pick regardless of your style. If your footwear selection is lacking personality, these leopard-print sneakers will quickly remedy the issue, so now, while they're on sale for just $45, is the best time to shop. The ultra-popular Oca Low style will prepare you for just about anything on your travel agenda with its supportive cork insoles and lightweight exteriors, and the grippy rubber outsoles add function to the mix. They're sustainably made with organic cotton canvas uppers and lining, and best of all (as with all other Cariuma shoes), with every pair of sneakers purchased, the brand plants two trees in the Brazilian rainforest to aid in reforestation efforts. Simple and sporty with a beautiful pop of pink, these leather and suede Cariuma sneakers are packed with personality and will look just as nice paired with your favorite denim shorts as with a flouncy mini dress. Padding at the heels makes them comfy straight from the box, which is essential if you're snagging a new pair of shoes right before a big trip with no time to break them in, and the combination of leather and suede allows them to stand out from other pairs in your collection. Plus, at 50 percent off, they're practically a steal (and they're fully stocked in sizes ranging from 5 to 12). With a dark, moody color palette, these elevated skate-style sneakers will bring a cool, vintage feel to your favorite travel outfits without sacrificing comfort—just don't wait too long to shop since select sizes are selling out fast. With insoles crafted to cup the feet and a highly supportive yet flexible design, you'll find sightseeing days and walking tours feel like a breeze. Suede and mesh exteriors remain breathable in the summer heat to keep your feet cool and comfy all day long, and best of all, they're currently priced at just $65. Fans of The Simpsons will want to jump at the chance to snag the Naioca Pro Bart Simpson sneakers while they're on sale for a mere $53, and not only are they stylish, but they're also a practical choice to travel with. This style of skate shoes is made with a smooth suede exterior and adorned with the image of Bart Simpson holding his famous skateboard. But while the design is bold and out there, the craftsmanship remains as reliable as ever, boasting outsoles made from slip-resistant rubber and insoles crafted with cork and bio-based foam that creates a truly personalized fit. Now you can shop them in sizes ranging from 5 to 9.5 in women's and 5 to 8 in men's, so don't let these novelty sneakers sell out without snagging a pair of your own. Add a pop of color to your packing list this summer with these darling rose-colored Salvas sneakers that are a sweet pick while they're on sale for $70. The chunky, skater sneakers are built with comfort in mind thanks to deep cupsoles and cushy cork insoles, while the outsoles are grippy enough to keep you secure even on rain-slicked terrain. Wide openings make them easy to slip on and off (not to mention comfortable straight out of the box), and pebbled leather exteriors are sturdy and well-crafted to remain in pristine condition even with regular wear. Colorful sneakers are all the rage this season, so get in on the trend with this unique pair of your own. Featuring a convenient slip-on design and breathable knit exteriors that are tailor-made for the summer heat, the Ibi Slip-on Rose Knit sneakers are a must-have addition to your shopping cart while they're on sale for $65. They're far more casual than other footwear offerings from Cariuma, making them ideal to style with your coziest airport outfit during your next long-haul flight. The ultra-lightweight construction ensures they'll hardly weigh down your luggage while taking up minimal space, and they're even woven from self-regenerating bamboo and recycled plastics, along with other sustainable materials like cork insoles and outsoles made of sugarcane-derived EVA. In short, they're good for the planet and your summer packing list. Love a great deal? Sign up for our T+L Recommends newsletter and we'll send you our favorite travel products each week.

TSA Warning—All Smartphone Users Must Stop Using These Chargers

Be warned before you head for the airport. It's holiday season. And as millions of travelers prepare to jet off from airports across the U.S. and beyond, the Transportation Security Administration's recent phone charger warning for airline passengers has suddenly been given some added urgency. The security agency has told airport travelers to 'bring your TSA-compliant power brick or battery pack and plug in there,' rather than use public charging points. 'When you're at an airport, do not plug your phone directly into a USB port.' This relates to so-called juice jacking, which along with the overhyped threat from public WiFi is guaranteed to irk cybersecurity professionals. But just as TSA's airport WiFi warning has been reinforced by the security industry, so it is now with charging. 'Public USB ports should never be treated as safe,' warns NordVPN's Adrianus Warmenhoven (via ZDNet), following its new report into the threat from choicejacking. This enhancement on juice jacking can bypass the protections in your smartphone to trick it into accepting a data cable connection when it shouldn't. Warmenhoven describes choicejacking as 'a dangerous evolution in public charging threats. With a single deceptive prompt, attackers can trick people into enabling data transfer, potentially exposing personal files and other sensitive data.' Per Hackread, 'the rise of choicejacking reinforces what cybersecurity experts have said for years: public USB ports should not be trusted. Even at airports, hotels, or cafés, a compromised charger could be waiting to hijack your device.' That's debatable. Most public charging warnings are met with a fair amount of cyber derision. It's a blunt force attack. You're only likely to be specifically targeted by a malicious charging point or cable if you're in a high risk vocation or location. But what choicejacking has done is shown how a phone can be tricked into thinking a physical connection is one thing — a keyboard for example, while in reality it's something else. And data can be stolen as a result. If you consider your risk profile to be high, this should be a consideration. Use your own charger and cable. And bear in mind that when your phone is unlocked while charging, it's more vulnerable to this attack — if juice jacking attacks really exist, of course.
