These easy-does-it travel products make life simple
There’s no better time than now to take a quick trip to reset and unwind.
And while overcrowded airports, cancelled or delayed flights and lost baggage were trending over the summer, September typically signals a return to better travel deals and availability at all the major hot spots.
In 2022, Pinterest searches for camping and nature-inspired travel increased by nearly 80%, so if you still want to make the most of the great outdoors, start searching up those camper packing hacks.
For long-haul adventures, there was an increase in searches to places like Thailand, Japan and India. More than half of respondents in an American Express 2022 Global Trends Report said they plan to spend more money on international travel while a majority said they planned to book two to four trips this year.
By now you may have regained frequent-flyer status and are stocked up with all the main travel essentials. But for the avid travel enthusiast, a few more goods that better reflect your needs and style can make all the difference when exploring a new destination.
Whether its applying sunscreen from a sustainable tube, packing up a cooler before the
ultimate road trip, or stargazing on a super soft travel blanket that comes in a bag — these must-have extras will keep that summer vibe alive well beyond apple picking season.
