Hand-Picked: 17 Amazon Prime Day Deals On Our Favorite Must-Have Travel Products

I lived in Hawaii for several years, and always kept a waterproof phone case in my beach bag – you never know when you'll want to walk behind a waterfall, go on a kayak excursion, or take underwater videos swimming with sea turtles. Okay, so that last example might not be a common experience, but if you believe summer is best experienced from the water, a waterproof phone case will come in handy for keeping your phone available to you in case of emergencies and capturing those memories you'll never want to forget.

Why didn't we think of this sooner?! Keep your seats clear and save floor space with a Head Rest Hook 4-Pack. We love simple solutions to everyday frustrations, and our Engagement Editor, Meg A., recommends these: "You don't realize how annoying digging around for a bag is until you never have to do it again!"

Traveling for a wedding or formal event? Love wearing linen in the summer but hate the creases? This handheld steamer is a game-changer to keep you looking crisp while away from home. The steamer heats up quickly, features multiple steaming positions for maximum versatility, and is dual-voltage to adapt anywhere in the world!

On particularly hot days, we often want to beeline to the nearest body of water, but that isn't always realistic, especially while we're traveling. Whether you're planning a summer vacation to a national park or an afternoon at an amusement park, this portable neck fan will keep you cool. Weighing approximately a half-pound and comfortable for long-term wear, the fan features three speeds, omnidirectional cooling, and three to sixteen hours of runtime on a single charge.

Whether you're traveling by plane, train, or automobile, it is important to keep a portable charger on hand for emergencies. This Anker charger has a slim profile to easily keep in your daypack and can charge an iPhone from 0% to 50% battery in 30 minutes. It is also universally compatible and can charge two devices at a time. Don't get stuck with a dead cell phone!

We love traveling with luggage tags – not only do they contain your contact information in case your luggage is lost, but these colorful luggage tags make it easy to spot your luggage in baggage claim and keep your entire family's luggage organized. Simply assign each individual of your family a different color, and you'll easily know who's stuff is where.

Anyone who has ever traveled via car extensively knows that navigation without a phone mount built-in screen is a pain. Not only is it illegal to hold your phone in many locations, but driving without a phone mount is a hassle. This dash mount allows you to mount and retrieve your cell phone in seconds with a one-handed motion and features a built-in cord organizer as well as self-centering arms and the ability to display your phone vertically or horizontally.

If you're anything like me, you are always juggling both a water bottle and a cup of coffee through the airport – not to mention your luggage. This travel cup holder fits roll-on suitcase handles and allows you to carry two beverages securely, in addition to a third pocket where you can easily stash your phone or boarding pass. We can see why it's a reader favorite, and it's already added to my Amazon cart in anticipation of my next long travel day.

We're big fans of Anker's mini power banks for charging phones on the go, so we were thrilled to discover that they have a slightly larger - yet still portable - option that can charge multiple devices at a time, including laptops! The Anker PowerCore Reserve is one of the smallest (and lightest) mid-size portable power banks we've found - it weighs just five pounds and is similar in size to a standard square tissue box (just a few inches taller).

This power bank also has a retractable lantern that's great for camping and road trips. However, one of its most impressive features is that it can retain 85% of a full charge after a year of non-use. Most backup batteries see a more significant decline over time, making this one particularly useful in emergency situations.

OnlyInYourState Engagement Editor Meg Archer loves this product: "The thought of losing power – especially in remote areas or on the road – makes me so anxious. I always carry a powerbank for my phone, but this mini generator is better for longer trips or charging multiple devices. It's powerful for its size & great for emergencies & power outages at home, too."

Sarah McCosham, the OnlyInYourState Renovations Editor, swears by this electronics organizer: "I get very overwhelmed by all of the different cords I need when I travel, and this organizer makes my life so much easier! I have the cords color coded so I know what's what, and this sleek little organizer also fits extra pens and my portable charger perfectly."

Our Associate Director of Content, Andrea Limke, never travels without this portable fan: "I have trouble sleeping when I travel, and this powerful, cord-free fan has been a game changer!"

OnlyInYourState's Manager of Editorial is an avid traveler and loves this Ello Pop & Fill water bottle that is easy to fill, leak-proof, and keeps drinks cold for hours: "I love that this water bottle has a built-in straw as well as an option to chug. While I prefer drinking from a straw, the large opening prevents airplane pressure changes to cause a mess and makes for quick and easy fill-ups."

Stop scrolling… this is NOT one of those VR headsets. It’s the snazziest eye mask we’ve tested.

OnlyInYourState’s Engagement Editor Meg A. has a lot of positive things to say about the Bob & Brad EyeOasis2 Eye Massager: “I’ll be the first to admit that I’m picky when it comes to eye masks. Either they are too flimsy and loose or too tight and uncomfortable. This one surprised me… and it’s definitely not your average eye mask. It’s an eye massager. So not only does it block light and fit securely on your face, it creates a glorious rolling pressure sensation that massages your brows, gentle compression pulses around your temples, and has a soothing heat setting - all of which are adjustable for your personal comfort level.

The first time I wore it, I was asleep before the auto-timer shut off. The second time I wore it, I had a massive headache that was infinitely less intense after 15 minutes. I loaned it to a friend who had a migraine and she tried to steal it. If you’re prone to headaches or want to boost your mini-meditation sessions, the EyeOasis2 will be your new best friend. And despite how ~fancy~ it looks, it folds up into a packable carrying case that can easily be tucked into a travel bag. It’s safe to say I’ll get a lot of use out of this one.”

My current picnic blanket is getting small for our growing family, and I am on the hunt for the perfect upgrade.
