Amazon Prime Big Deal Days runs October 6 and 7, 2026, and it is the smartest time all fall to gear up for holiday trips. Think new carry on, packing cubes that actually zip shut and headphones that drown out the crying toddler in 14C.
The sale started at 12:01 a.m. PT on October 6 and wraps at the end of October 7. Amazon drops fresh deals three times a day: midnight, 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. PT. If something sells out, check back at the next drop.
We dug through thousands of Prime Big Deal listings and pulled only the travel gear with real markdowns that we would buy for ourselves (and our travel besties). Prices move fast during the sale, so grab what you love while it is marked down.
