A waterproof backpack is essential for any camper who doesn't want to worry about their gear, even in bad weather or during water activities. Our AHI backpack from SONS OF ALOHA offers optimal protection and is made of durable material, making our AHI from SONS OF ALOHA very robust. It's versatile, whether for hiking, canoeing, or other outdoor activities. It's just the thing for any outdoor enthusiast.

Minimalist packing: The art of traveling light

Before every trip, you face the challenge: What should I pack, how much can I take with me, and will it all fit? Therefore, minimalist packing is a true art, especially for camping trips. Less luggage means more freedom and mobility. Traveling light not only saves weight, but also time and stress. The goal is to bring only the essentials and thus increase efficiency. Careful planning and organization are crucial.

However, a minimalist approach can also bring limitations, as fewer items of clothing and gear are available. Packing versatile clothing that's easy to mix and match and using packing cubes to maximize space can be helpful.

Package holidays: pure relaxation under the sun

A package holiday offers the luxury of not having to worry about anything – everything is already organized. Whether you're lounging on the beach or taking cultural excursions, the right luggage plays a crucial role. Here you'll find out which luggage is best suited to your package holiday and how to pack stress-free.

The perfect companion: Which suitcase for which type of vacation?

A package holiday is the perfect opportunity to relax and leave everyday life behind. The right suitcase can make all the difference. There are numerous suitcase models and sizes available, varying in style, comfort, and organization. Would you like your suitcases of different sizes to match? No problem! With our suitcase sets , you'll be perfectly equipped for your next trip and easily fit all your travel essentials. A well-designed suitcase makes traveling much easier, as it offers ample space and plenty of compartments to keep everything neatly stored.

Tips :

  • Mobility: Choose a suitcase with wheels.
  • Weight: Check your airline's weight restrictions.
  • Choice of material: A hard-shell suitcase offers additional protection for fragile items, while a soft-shell suitcase is often lighter and more flexible.
  • Expandability: Especially useful when you go shopping on vacation and need more space.
  • Security features: An integrated TSA lock increases the security of your luggage.

Hard-shell hand luggage: stylish and robust

A hard-shell carry-on suitcase is ideal for package holidays. It offers both protection and style and is available in a wide range of designs. These suitcases protect the contents from damage and are often equipped with TSA locks for increased security.

Suitcase as hand luggage size: What really fits in it?

Finding the right size carry-on suitcase is crucial for a stress-free trip. Carry-on suitcases offer the advantage of not having to wait for your luggage at your destination and avoiding additional baggage fees. They also allow for quick mobility, which is especially convenient for short layovers. But what are the dimensions of your carry-on suitcase? We've checked the dimensions for various airlines for you. We found that a suitcase measuring 35 x 55 x 22 cm is perfect for your next flight. However, to be absolutely sure, it's advisable to check the airline's carry-on baggage policy in advance.

Cruise: Luxury and sea in perfect harmony

A cruise combines luxury with the freedom to explore many different places without having to constantly move. The right luggage is essential for making the most of the limited space on board and traveling in style. Here are the best tips for packing for a cruise.

Compact wonders: hand luggage suitcases for the cruise

For a week-long cruise, a compact carry-on suitcase is ideal for traveling light and stylishly. Small trolleys are ideal, as cabins are often rather small. Our CANNES carry-on suitcase from FERGÉ offers enough space for all your travel essentials while remaining lightweight and stylish.

However, they offer less storage space for longer cruises and are less flexible when it comes to packing. Choose a model with more storage space for better organization and look for sturdy wheels and handles for easy maneuvering.

The stylish daypack for women: chic on land and at sea

A stylish daypack is perfect for shore excursions during your cruise. These backpacks perfectly complement your outfit while offering plenty of pockets for better organization. They're ergonomically designed to maximize comfort during long excursions.

The downside is that they offer less space than larger backpacks and may offer less theft protection. It's worth choosing a backpack with hidden pockets for valuables and made of water-resistant material to be prepared for anything. Our KANE roll-top backpack from SONS OF ALOHA, for example, is perfect for this, with a hidden compartment on the back. In addition to the advantages already mentioned, we offer this backpack in a wide range of colors, so there's one for everyone. And as if that weren't enough, our backpack is made from recycled PET.
