12 NEW Amazon Travel & Cruise Purchases for 2023

[@stephaniem839]

I have the hangers, but I put my clothes on them ahead of time and lay them flat. I fold the sleeves in and roll the whole pile together and put them in a packing cube. When you get to the ship, just take out the bundle, unroll, and hang it up all together… so quick and easy.

[@jo-annr.1291]

How much weight does the clothes hanger hold? Thanks

[@stephaniem839]

@@jo-annr.1291 I think it depends on which ones you get. Mine were just fine for all my shirts. I did fold my pants and just set the pile on a shelf in the closet.

[@wendytabon3029]

I use mine for wet swimwear and hand wash items also dresses and tops

[@jonitouschner6040]

Brilliant

[@TessAlmond]

I have had those travel hangers for a couple of years and I love them.I actually will hang Clothes on them before packing, and then lay them on top of my cubes and fold them over. It makes unpacking so easy for those hanging items

Thank you Sharon for these great suggestions. We stopped cruising after 2020 when I adopted my little chihuahua. I can't imagine being away from her a week so we just switched our travel to RV'ing and these are some wonderful ideas. Thanks for the inspiration and happy cruising!❤

[@SharonatSeaTravel]

Thanks for watching, Kelli!!! Say hi to your chihuahua for us!!!

[@stephaniem839]

RVing is so fun with our pups too!!

[@kimberlyfamoly5863]

I just pack a box or 2 of Dove bars for ever trip and just toss it when I leave the room at the end of the trip so no need for any soap case. The pill case I use for my jewelry

[@kathyp2794]

And off to Amazon I go! Thank you, Sharon!!

[@SharonatSeaTravel]

Happy shopping....lol

[@wendytabon3029]

I know I have quite a few of these items they are great 👍

[@khoward819]

I have a similar hat… I think the strings inside are made to adjust how it fits on your head. If it’s too big, you can tie the strings together to make it fit snug

[@suewolf3279]

I love the portable hangers. I place them in the bottom of the suitcase to fill all those little holes and gaps. I use mine for hanging up my hand washed laundry

[@kansascathy]

I take the throw away hangers from Kohl's. I can just throw them at the end of the cruise.

[@wendytabon3029]

I uses the travel hanger for laundry and swim wear

[@Janya1999]

That BAGSMART toiletry bag was a game changer for me! Bought the medium last year for a cruise, and it is one of the best things I have added to my travel routine. It is the perfect size. I don't even unpack it; I leave it fully stocked for travel, as I do travel quite a bit by car and by plane through the year. Th smaller one, I purchased for family that was in hospital, and it worked out very well for them.

[@lindaland8740]

Great products Sharon! I love those folding hangers and the weekender bag 😍

[@SharonatSeaTravel]

Hi Linda!!!

[@ginaturney7068]

I love the Matador soap bags. I use one for soap and two others for my shampoo and conditioner bars. I have those hangers too. Love them.

[@SharonatSeaTravel]

Thanks Gina!!

[@elenakerusenko9160]

I have the pill organizer and love it. It’s maybe little hard to open but it’s come with a little thing to open each section

[@jillgreen9179]

Agreed! I love mine and the fact the compartments stay closed! Mine came with an opener that looks like a guitar pick, works great!

[@SpeedNoodles]

The shirt you're wearing is amazing!

[@SharonatSeaTravel]

Thank you. I got it at Venus.com

[@TamiAndis]

I took black portable hangers on a cruise. On embarkation day my luggage was confiscated. I had to go down to the lower deck to claim it and open it. Evidently, the xray machine (or person) thought they were hand cuffs!!! No joke!!!

[@AnneMechen-no5gj]

I purchased a Travelon crossbody bag and I too just love it. It holds so much and with RFID in the bag it keeps your bank cards and passports safe from being illegally scanned.

[@Flamingo_Pam]

I'm getting those hangers for when I have to fly. Also, those bottles will hold liquor for your layovers.

[@florestellagonzalez7321]

YOU CAN USE THAT PILL BOX FOR EARRING AND RINGS.

[@FraserAtSea]

Great video! The pins are always my top tip to be honest - getting rid of paper that gets delivered every day by sticking it on the wall is so good - otherwise, it fills a drawer, ha! I also take magnetic hooks to hang things like hats/belts etc on the wall to keep them easy to grab when needed!

I had a big personal item bag for the plane but I would load it up so much I hated carrying it. Now I have a tiny soft case on wheels that I just carryon to the plane but when I’m walking around I can wheel it. It’s a life saver. I have a travelon anti theft bag it’s brilliant. The little light I hand for looking in my bag.

[@betzy7514]

I would love to know more about your little wheeled case. I am searching for one that fits under the airplane seat. Most are too big for the aisle seat.

[@cherylwilliams42]

My husband and I each have the weekender bag. It packs well and we used it as our personal item along with a carry-on for our last cruise. I did find the shoe/bottom storage a little awkward to use once the top is loaded but in the end, it was ok. I got the rose flowers, my husband has the black like yours.

[@cherylwilliams42]

Also, the sides of the bottom section tend to collapse. After using it I find that I wish it had more structure.

[@peggywoods4327]

I got the Matador case last year and it works great! I travel with a combo soap/shampoo bar cut in half (don't need a whole bar for a 2 week trip). Added pro tip: place the soap in one of those little mesh bags and you can hang it to dry. All fits in the Matador. I got a few of the pill cases and I think they work great! I have no issues with them. I got extras to use as a holder for jewelry/earrings. On a whim I just ordered those hangers the other day. I am going to Europe for some festivals and I will be bringing some costumes with me (using one of those garment/duffel bags) I love all things Travelon! I'm all about pouches and organizing.

[@Suzanne1027]

I have that pill holder that I use in my purse. You may have gotten a dud because mine works great and I love it!

[@ericnordquist5498]

I've got the same one, as well. Mine came with a little 'guitar pick' looking triangle of plastic to help pop the compartments open.

[@laratubes]

I have a little smaller toiletry bag with a similar layout as the one in the video, swivel hanger too, but also has a zippered front pocket designed for jewelry ;) I love it!

[@slinkyengelking]

LOL!! I own two of the Bagsmart brand bags in navy. LOVE THEM!!!!! the small zipper compartment are great for hair ties, tooth plackers etc OMG!! My travelon bag!! I literally carry this daily. You should tell them about the shoulder strap can not be cut and the zippers are lockable. And the RFID blocking on the inside pocket.

[@deliacall4826]

Yes - the zippers on the Travelon purse are a great safety feature against pickpockets…

[@comics360]

I use the hangers to hang up my shirts after I wash them. The ships have wooden hangers that would be ruined by damp clothing.

[@twtexas17]

Sharon I absolutely love your blouse! Where did you get it from? I would consider your blouse a cruise essential!

[@SharonatSeaTravel]

I got it from Venus.com!!!! Thanks!!!

[@kellymeredithdc7436]

I have used that bag for several years. It has been my favorite weekender. Only problem is if you pack it too heavy and cant use your luggage if it is checked. It does get heavy. It will hold soo much and it great for your shoes in the bottom. Perfect bag. I have the black and white marble bag. I have also checked with with putting a lock on it and it works great for that also.

[@luvscifi408]

I too love those fold up hangers. If you have a cabin with limited hanging space, you can use hanger connectors to make better use of the vertical space. Couldn’t copy the link. If you look them up you will see what I mean. I also love using my packing cubes on the shelves to keep things neat and organized

[@SharonatSeaTravel]

[@sunsetrescue7112]

Would you recommend the capris for flying when we tend to swell up? I ask because even some of my best stretch jeans can get tight on even short flights because when we fly we do swell .. all over 😔

[@anne-marievr5710]

I have a small "pill organizer" similar to the one you showed, but use it for my earrings. Mine is easier to open & $1 at Walmart. I have MANY pairs of the Capri leggings, both Capri length & full length. Best EVER! ❤ The little string inside the hat it to adjust the size, which is why it's under the band. I have the hat too.

[@kcape]

Yes, string is for adjusting the size of the hat, not a tie on. Cute hat though!

[@rhondapelletier3036]

The soap bag -yes love it Hangers-yes but they sell them with clips. Holds a 2 piece bathing suits or anything small you want to hang to dry.

Yes the purse does have anti thief locks on it. Very secure.

I guess guys are different. My Dopps (toiletry) bag came with a garment bag I purchased in 1985. (Tumi - great bag, lifetime guarantee but they are out of business so I need to find someone to replace the zippers). No need to update the Dopps bag.

We use a multiplug made by Trond..(check amazon) just a square plug with 2 usb and 3 standard plugs on it. Always bring it in our carry on with no issues.

I was told by customer service on Celebrity (sister cruise line to Royal Caribbean) that anything with multiple outlets is prohibited. They don’t care if it doesn’t have a cord, isn’t surge protected. Mine was confiscated from my carry on. I have heard of people getting them through, especially if in checked bags.
