Daily Drop's Favorite Travel Accessories

Always on the move, we rely on this lightweight, powerful laptop to craft newsletters and articles from anywhere. Whether on a plane, in a café, or halfway up a mountain, its battery life and performance never let us down.

The Thule Aion backpack is my go-to option when I don't plan on traveling with a carry-on suitcase. It's expandable to 32L, which offers 15% more packable space (yay!), and its main divider feature allows you to unzip it fully just like a suitcase — perfect for easy packing.

This travel-sized sunscreen is perfect for staying protected on the road. It’s lightweight, non-greasy, and doesn’t leave a white cast — plus, it plays nice with sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Most airlines don’t support Bluetooth audio yet, so this little device is a game-changer. Just plug it in and connect your wireless headphones — no cords, no hassle.

Kara and I both choose to travel with All Birds for two main reasons. First, they collapse flat which means they take up minimal space inside of your bag. Second, they’re super light and comfortable!

There’s nothing worse than arriving in a new country only to discover your plugs don’t fit. That’s why we always travel with this universal adapter — it covers nearly every country and keeps our devices charged no matter where we land.

We’re book nerds, but let’s be real — lugging around a stack of novels just isn’t realistic when traveling. The Kindle Paperwhite is ultra-lightweight, compact, and lets us carry an entire library in one sleek device.

We have been carrying these backpacks for several years. They look great, carry a ton of gear, and are super durable. We’d highly recommend this bag if you’re looking for a backpack to hold camera gear as well as other essentials.

We both LOVE this bag! It somehow fits everything we need, still counts as a carry-on, and comes with a lifetime warranty, which makes it even better.

This portable charger is a lifesaver on the road—its large capacity means we can charge our phones multiple times without scrambling for an outlet. It’s compact, powerful, and lets us charge two devices at once, so we’re always ready for whatever the travel day throws at us.

We love this water bottle both at home and on the road. We refill it at the airport to avoid overpriced bottled water, and it keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours.

Sometimes, you just need more than a backpack for your trip! This carry-on is super sleek and sturdy — so not only will you look good rolling it through the airport, but you'll know your belongings will always be protected with its hard-shell aluminum frame.
