TECH
Headphones
A good set of headphones can save you from a horrible flight and a portable charger can prevent you from getting stranded while navigating unfamiliar roads. Here are some of our top tech picks for travelers.
Over-ear and on-ear headphones
- Bose QuietComforts have been a team favorite for years and the latest model is currently $80 off. $249 (originally $329)
- The Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are nearly unmatched both in their noise-canceling ability and sleek design. $348 (originally $399)
- For a more budget-friendly or on-ear alternative, the JBL Live 460NCs are hard to beat at less than 1/3 of the price of more expensive competitors. $64.95 (originally $124.95)
Earbuds and in-ear headphones
- Take advantage of rare Apple product sale with these 2nd Gen Apple Airpods. $199 (originally $249)
- Again, the JBL Tune headphones are a great option for something more budget-friendly. $100 (originally $50)
- Though most of us have moved onto Bluetooth, planes have not caught up with the latest technology. I always pack a pair of cheap-but-sturdy wired headphones with me too so I don’t have to pay for those horribly uncomfortable ones they try to upsell you on. $13 (originally $20)
Cameras
- An affordable vlogging camera to capture all those travel escapes makes a great gift. $150 + $20 coupon (originally $180)

BEAUTY & BODY
Though we love traveling, we will admit, we hate what it does to our hair and skin. From dry cabin air to frizzy tresses, we’ve dealt with it all. Here are our favorite beauty and body essentials.
- Our DFC team has previously raved about shower steamers. They are a small thing to toss into your carry-on but they can be a big relief to use after a stressful day of travel. I always pack one so I can unwind without soaking in questionable tubs. $40 (originally $30)
