FAQs on Prime Day luggage deals
Is Prime Day a good time to buy luggage?
Definitely. We're still early in the summer travel season, so now's the perfect opportunity to save on a new carry-on or checked luggage. Plus, during this 4-day period, you can find plenty of luggage sales outside of Amazon.
As someone who travels at least once a month, I think the scarcity of all-black luggage deals this Prime Day is actually a good thing. I prefer when I can clearly see my bright teal hardshell coming around the baggage carousel, so don't be discouraged if you're noticing limited color variety.
What size carry-on should I buy?
Most domestic airlines have a maximum carry-on size requirement of 22 inches long, 14 inches wide, and nine inches tall.
What are the best luggage brands on sale?
Some of our favorite luggage brands offer deep discounts on suitcases for Prime Day. Samsonite has slashed prices this Prime Day, with some bundles at over 50% off. Away now has carry-on and checked bags marked down 20%, and there are tons of other deals going live all the time.
