These flight attendant-approved packing cubes are down to $20 for Prime members

The summer travel season isn’t over yet — you still have time to book that well-deserved vacay! If you’re anything like me, you like your vacations to be as fuss-free as possible. I’ve found that the ultimate secret to a cool, calm, collected trip is a well-packed suitcase. People who do it for a living do it right, and according to more than a few flight attendants, compression packing cubes help them get everything into their suitcases neatly. This six-pack is on sale for just $20 for Amazon Prime members.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

If you already have your vacation all planned out, there’s no time to waste — now is the time to snag this deal. This Prime-exclusive price marks the lowest this packing cube set has been all year!

Why do I need this? 🤔

If prepping for a trip tends to be a bit of a chore for you, packing cubes can come in handy. They keep things tidy and organized while you travel, but these doodads take things a step further: The built-in compression lets you flatten the cubes a bit more to take up less space in your luggage. Each cube has an extra zipper on the outside that can be zipped up to flatten the cubes. It works similarly to a vacuum sealer, just without all of the extra tools.

This set comes with four standard compression packing cubes in various sizes (small to extra large), a slim compression bag and a shoe bag.

What reviewers say 💬

Almost 15,000 shoppers say these packing cubes have made traveling so much easier — even flight attendants and other flight crew members rave about them.

Pros 👍

“I’m a flight attendant and these are my go-to packing cubes,” one professional flyer wrote. “These expand and make packing easy. Also, aesthetically [they] look good. I like how these can expand if needed.”

Another flight attendant said she loves them because they “keep my suitcase organized and packed tight” while a third said they help him “pack more efficiently.” The same shopper added: “I love that I can compress it down to a smaller pack once the clothes are inside.”

A pilot’s two cents: “I am a pilot and travel a lot. In hotels 14-16 nights a month and seldom in the same hotel for more than one night. These bags (bought two sets) keep me organized, save time packing and unpacking, and keep my clothes wrinkle-free.”

Cons 👎

One shopper’s wish: A clear vinyl pocket outside of each bag “to label the contents.” The same shopper added that “a roll of masking tape and a Sharpie worked just fine” in its place.

It would be nice if the brand “had options for purchasing additional larger cubes,” this reviewer said.

Another clever go-to with a buy-in from the pros? This luggage-mounted drink holder:
