Buy cheap, buy twice – we’ve all heard it, but if you put luggage through the test, the old adage is typically true. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of walking through the airport as your luggage wheels click, or struggling to retract the bag handle at a critical moment. With Away, a lifetime guarantee helps, but luggage that doesn’t break in the first place is even better.

For pretty much the first time ever, GSTP’s favorite luggage brand, Away Travel is offering 50% off everything, bringing fantastic opportunities to lock in a carry on with a lifetime guarantee, for half the price.

50% Off Away Travel Carry On Sale

The Away Travel carry on isn’t new at this point, but it’s still one of the best solutions to premium luggage without some of the insane premium luggage price tags. These hard shell bags have more give than Rimowa to avoid dents, and the matte finish keeps the look from fading, when it inevitably rubs against surface.

For a limited time, and perhaps a very limited time, Away is offering 50% off everything including all luggage sets, backpacks, accessories and their famed carry on. The “we’ve never done this before” sale starts September 9th at 8AM EST, on AwayTravel.com and in stores.

GSTP bought both the oversized and standard carry ons in recent years, and has never had a problem squeezing either into an overhead bin on account of size in Europe, the USA or Asia. Both still roll perfectly, and thanks to the unique finish, the outside finish doesn’t look faded or dull. The backpack has also been a welcome addition, helping to maximize the carry on limit, with a set that straps seamlessly together.

These carry ons come with, or without a rechargeable battery which can be great for staying connected in transit. The battery pops out with just a simple click, which makes them compliant with all airlines.

Bringing these carry on’s out of the mid $200’s after taxes and shipping and into the $100’s is a total game changer, making them only marginally more expensive than low end luggage (without lifetime guarantees), for a limited time. The sale is worldwide, to the best of our knowledge. Basically, if you’ve been thinking about getting one, don’t hesitate. Holiday shopping here we come.
