The 26 Best Luggage Deals That Have Been Leaked Ahead of Amazon’s New Prime Day Sale Event

Amazon just announced its Amazon Prime Early Access Sale, a 48-hour event that gives Prime members exclusive early access to holiday deals. The sale is brand new — and the announcement marks the debut of a second major event for Prime members this calendar year, following July’s buzzy Prime Day. The two-day global shopping event kicks off on October 11 at 12 a.m. PDT and runs through October 12 in the U.S. and 14 other countries. But as with Prime Day, expect Amazon’s new sale event to bring deals not just available on the official dates, but also for days leading up to them. 

Hundreds of thousands of deals will be available — and plenty of items are already billing impressive markdowns. So it’s an excellent opportunity to get a jump on your holiday shopping and beat the rush associated with Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Stock up on luggage for gifts as well as for your own upcoming travel this fall, holiday season, and beyond. Right now, you can score impressive markdowns of up to 57 percent on SwissGear rolling bags and Samsonite suitcases, hardside luggage sets from Coolife and softside sets from Rockland, carry-on backpacks that can fit weeks’ worth of gear, duffel and weekender bags, accessories such as packing cubes to help you maximize space in your luggage, and more.

You can even prepare for the sale by setting up personalized deal notifications and creating shopping lists: Prime members can subscribe to receive deal alert notifications related to their recent Amazon searches and recently viewed items. To activate the feature, just visit the Prime Early Access Sale event page on the Amazon app to create deal alerts. Once the sale begins, members will receive push notifications on any available deals. And if you’re not already a Prime member, there’s still time to sign up for a free 30-day trial, so you can partake in every single early deal, day-of sale, and post-event discount. 

Even easier, If you’re looking for luggage for yourself or as holiday gifts — or both – we’ve curated the best luggage deals to shop ahead of the Prime Early Access Sale right here, with prices starting at just $10. Don’t miss these price slashes on carry-ons, luggage sets, backpacks, duffels, and travel accessories.
