At TPG, it’s no secret that we love a deal. Whether it’s for discounted flights or hotel stays, we’ve got you covered. And now, we’ve rounded up the best Cyber Monday deals on luggage, headphones and other travel accessories.
Some of these deals are continuing from Black Friday, so be sure to browse before it’s too late.
Headphones
Apple AirPods Max Wireless Over-Ear Headphones
Apple AirPods Max Wireless Over-Ear Headphones. APPLE
Though still pricey, Amazon’s Black Friday sale is one of your best chances to save money on Apple’s noise-canceling, over-ear headphones. They’re currently on sale at a slightly discounted price of $449.
These are particularly known for their Apple-designed, high-fidelity audio with three different settings. Settings include spatial audio that provides theater-like surround sound and computational audio that combines acoustic design, as well as the Apple H1 chip and software.
Their knit-mesh canopy and memory foam ear cushions pledge an “exceptional fit,” offering up to 20 hours of listening time. Plus, if your battery is running low, you can store these in ultra-low power mode to save some juice with their corresponding Smart Case, as you would with your iPhone.
If you are an Apple fan (who isn’t these days?), use these headphones to easily share audio between your devices, including iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and Apple TV. Get these in silver, green, pink, sky blue and space grey and save $100 off their usual $549 price tag.
Since these are on Amazon, you can sometimes stack on one of the many ways to save on Amazon to get an even better deal.
We would be remiss in creating a headphones roundup if we failed to include Beats from Dr. Dre. Though the rapper sold his company to Apple, these wireless Bluetooth headphones are compatible with both iOS and Android devices. They offer up to 40 hours of battery life — more than any other headphones on this list.
Their design is not only sleek but practical, with comfort-cushioned adjustable ear cups, equipped with the sound and design you’ve come to expect from Beats, including on-ear control and fine-tuned acoustics that claim to “maximize clarity, breadth and balance.”
Perhaps the best part is that you only need to charge these headphones for five minutes to get three hours of playback.
With a Cyber Monday price tag as low as $114.95 for the silver headphones and $149.95 for rose gold on Amazon, you'll want to grab these before they run out of stock. The blue and citrus-red ones are currently out of stock.
Bose QuietComfort 45 Bluetooth Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones
Bose QuietComfort 45 Bluetooth Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones. AMAZON
Another strong option for noise-canceling headphones on sale comes from Bose. The company says these headphones are the “perfect balance of quiet, comfort, and sound,” thanks to the tiny mics that measure outside noise.
High points of these headphones include their 30-foot Bluetooth range (connecting up to 30 feet away) and compatibility with the Bose Music app. Also, they have two settings: quiet and aware. The latter allows you to bring the outside in so you can hear your environment and music simultaneously.
Just 15 minutes of charging yields up to three hours of playing time, but if you’re on the go without a charger, you can plug in the included audio cable to listen in wired mode. Expect up to 24 hours of battery life from a single charge.
Choose from triple black, midnight blue, eclipse grey and white smoke, all reduced from $329 on Amazon to $229, $20 cheaper than they were on Black Friday.
Sony Wireless Premium Noise Canceling Overhead Headphones
Every seasoned traveler has come to rely on their favorite pair of headphones, and Sony’s noise-canceling overhead ones are a fan favorite. With up to 30 hours of battery life, touch sensor controls for volume, voice assistance and speak-to-chat technology, these headphones provide a seamless listening experience.
The updated design relieves pressure on your ears and the headphones only need 10 minutes of charging for five hours of playback. So, you’ll be comfortable listening for hours.
The blue version is currently on sale at Amazon for $228, reduced from its normal price tag of $350.
The Medium. AWAY
Thanks to its limited-time sale, shoppers can get $50 off when they buy two Away suitcases or $100 off if they buy three bags by Nov. 28.
Since coming to the forefront in 2015, the hard-shell Away suitcase has become ubiquitous throughout airports and a staple brand among many TPG staffers.
Known for their reliability, Away bags all have sturdy handles and are easy to roll, regardless of the climate, from airport carpets to old European city centers.
With a variety of colors — including limited-edition bling, dotcom, cyber and jinx — you could use this sale to mix and match. Plus, some Away accessories, including toiletry bags and packing cubes, are 40% off this week as well.
CARMEN CHAN/CALPAK TRAVEL
On Cyber Monday only, get 75% off all Calpak products, including luggage, backpacks and travel accessories, by simply entering your email address when prompted.
This is a huge discount on some of the brand's most coveted items, including duffle bags, backpacks, mini- and full-size clear cosmetics cases, a packing cubes set and a belt bag. There are also various suitcases, including checked, carry-on, hand-held and rolling options.
MONOS/FACEBOOK
In case you need another luggage option to consider, Monos is offering shoppers up to 30% off sitewide; this includes hard-shell suitcases, backpacks, duffle and weekender bags. You must enter promo code CYBERWEEK2022 at checkout. This deal is available for purchases made by Dec. 4.
Samsonite Omni PC Hardside Carry-On Expandable Luggage with Spinner Wheels
Samsonite Spinner. AMAZON
This 20-inch Samsonite Spinner is a solid carry-on option for those who mostly travel domestically, as it meets most carry-on size restrictions set by U.S. carriers for domestic travel.
Like all Samsonite products, this bag comes with a 10-year warranty, though its “micro-diamond polycarbonate” promises to be scratch-resistant. Also, this particular suitcase expands, allowing you to pack more. You can organize those extra items using a mesh divider and cross straps in the main compartment with a zipped pocket.
ROAM
For purchases made on Cyber Monday, Roam Luggage is offering customers a free Market Tote ($125 value) or Travel Pouch Set ($95) with the purchase of any piece of customizable hard luggage, backpack or duffel bag.
Roam’s luggage, backpacks and duffels are made to order and are fully customizable. You can choose from a variety of colors for the body of your bag, the wheels and even the zipper; you can also add a monogram to create a bag that matches your personality.
SOLGAARD
Solgaard’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale lasts through Cyber Monday or while supplies last. You can pick up sustainable luggage, bags, accessories and personal solar/tech products that are made with ocean-bound plastic.
According to the brand, for every product purchased, it pulls the equivalent of 229 ocean-bound plastic bottles (5 pounds) from rivers and waterways around the world.
Solgaard’s Carry-On Closet is ideal for travelers who never check a bag and prefer not to unpack at their destination. For example, the medium suitcase is on sale for $229 versus its everyday price of $275. The large is on sale for $249 versus the normal $295.
No code is necessary, and you'll get a free gift with purchases over $200.
Dagne Dover’s stylish yet functional bags have made their way into the closets of many TPG staffers. We love the brand's fanny packs and you don’t need to be traveling with a child to appreciate the organizational efficiency of its diaper backpack.
Now through Nov. 30, you can use code BFRIYAY25 for 25% off everything on Dagne Dover’s site (gift cards and final sale items are excluded).
SOLO
Everything on Solo’s website is on sale for at least 30% off — some items net a 50% discount. TPG loves the sustainable and eco-friendly Re:cycled Collection that includes everything from backpacks to laptop and tablet sleeves to carry-ons and duffels.
AirTags have grown in popularity with frequent travelers, allowing them to track their checked baggage amid flight delays, cancellations and lost baggage.
The silver disc, slightly larger than a quarter, uses the global network of Apple iPhones to track its location when you attach it to your suitcase or item you wish to track. When used, the device will send a signal via short-range Bluetooth communications to iPhones nearby to identify a location from there, before sending it back to your iPhone.
AMAZON
The gb Pockit Air folds up so small that it was once recognized by Guinness World Records for being the world’s smallest stroller. This super-compact stroller weighs in at only 10.4 pounds and folds up in two simple steps; when folded, it’s small enough to fit in most airplane overhead bins. It also has a sun canopy, an adjustable harness and a small underseat storage basket.
Amazon is offering this travel-friendly stroller for $160, 20% less than the regular price of $200.
In addition to the ones mentioned on this list, remember that a variety of other retailers — including Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom and Beis — are also running Cyber Monday sales.
Bottom line
If you take advantage of one of these deals, use a credit card that will give you rewards.
Consider the Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card for 2 miles per dollar on every purchase, the Citi® Double Cash Card (see rates and fees) for 2% cash back on every purchase (1% cash back when you buy, plus an additional 1% as you pay for those purchases), the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card for 2 points per dollar on travel purchases outside of those purchased through Chase Ultimate Rewards, or the Chase Freedom Unlimited for 3% cash back on drugstore purchases and dining at restaurants, including takeout and eligible delivery services, and 1.5% on all other purchases.
The timing of the sales varies by retailer and some will only be available as long as supplies last through Nov. 28. If something on this list catches your eye, you’ll want to shop while you still can.
