I think we all could use some shopping therapy both before and after the chaos of Thanksgiving.

So why not spend some money investing in travel essentials that will make your next trip feel extra special?

I’m looking forward to treating myself to some new travel-inspired gifts this holiday season. 

Read on to find my list of the best November 2025 holiday deals for travelers. 

Luggage

CALPAK Luggage

I’m seriously obsessed with CALPAK’s gear, and their Black Friday sale is the perfect time to grab some of their best pieces at great prices, like 20% off site-wide and up to 60% off select styles.

I’ve been loving the Terra Backpack because of its versatility and rugged style, which makes it my favorite for active trips and hands-free travel.

More recently, I added the Luka Duffel to my collection, and I am equally impressed by its chic design and spacious, practical layout.

Their makeup case is also amazing (it’s on my wish list) and comes at an ideal price point, making it a thoughtful gift for a friend or family member.

If you want to upgrade your travel gear or find a chic present for a travel loving friend or family member, the CALPAK Black Friday sale is definitely worth exploring.

Away Luggage

Like most people on social media, I’ve been obsessed with Away for ages. I even have the classic millennial pink Bigger Carry-On which spoiler alert, almost 5 years (and many trips later) later is still going strong.

The issue is that they rarely have any sales or deals because the brand is so popular. 

That’s why it was exciting to see that this week, they currently have their biggest sale of the year going on with 25% off everything.

Away Bigger Carry-On Luggage

This lightweight, durable carry-on offers spacious packing, a hard-shell exterior, and smooth spinner wheels—perfect for frequent travelers.

Well, now’s the perfect excuse to treat yourself this holiday season.

It holds a ton, plus I really love how it totally unzips. It makes getting through security and unpacking a breeze!
