Travel is all about technology, from GPS and Waze, to Airbnb and, well, airplanes. But beyond these basics? That’s when it becomes essential to equip yourself. During the busy summer travel season, the right gear can keep you hydrated, ventilated, and entertained
Technology starts low. As in—below the waist. Yes, flying in a suit in the 1960s was glamorous, but who wants to sweat through tweed?
Instead, try the ventilated support of Lululemon’s ABC Jogger WovenAir, which wicks sweat without compression.
Should turbulence dress your pants with cranberry cocktail, rinse and hang-dry at destination with the Flexo-Line travel clothesline, which can be strung across anything short of the Elbow River in Calgary.
Finally, fortify your baggage with a TSA-approved lock and a Cincha travel belt, which guarantees your tote bag won’t spill its guts—and the $50 SPF inside it—on the jetway.
Kindle Scribe (16 GB)
Light weight, long lasting battery, and a larger screen than previous models make the Amazon Kindle Scribe a travel necessity for bookworms. As the name suggests, Scribe also allows for users to draw on the screen or write notes directly onto, for example, their favourite passages of a novel.
Apple AirTag 4 Pack
I have these. Great for gifts and it actually does track where my bag is. Even organized types misplace things while hustling out the door. Cut down on the panic with the Apple AirTag, which wirelessly transmits the location of crucial items to your phone. Tag your wallet! Tag your passport! Tag your kids! All the info is encrypted, so your valuables can betray their whereabouts to you alone.
SmartLuggage 26″ Hardside Airline Approved Spinner Luggage
What if you never again had to frantically and humiliatingly reapportion your underthings and other unmentionables out of a 51-pound checked bag at the airport counter? The SmartLuggage 26″ has a built-in scale in the handle, so you’ll always know exactly how heavy you’re rolling.
Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe
Anker is the king of aftermarket charging solutions, and this Apple-specific block makes wrestling with a thatch of dingy white cables a thing of the past. The block doubles as a phone stand, turning your airplane tray table into a mini cinema.
