Overview
With extra layers, bulkier bags, and longer flights, winter getaways call for smart packing. The trick isn't packing more but better. And that’s where the right travel accessories come in. Think bags that keep your essentials sorted, gadgets that keep you charged, and small comforts that go a long way on cold, overnight flights.
On Laneway, you can pre-order these travel essentials online and collect them when you land or head off from Melbourne Airport. Whether you’re arriving from somewhere warm or planning a ski trip, these duty free winter travel accessories are worth having ready.
Stay Organised With Bags, Wallets and Smart Packing Gear
Winter holidays are a great excuse to bring out the coats, boots and chunky knits. And with a bit of planning, it’s easy to fit everything in your checked travel bag or carry-on luggage.
Packing smarter is the trend this season. If you’re already using packing cubes, you know how much easier it is to keep your layers sorted. A small pouch makes a great toiletry bag too—simple, compact and easy to grab when you need it. Plus, adding a backpack or tote bag, like Miffy Plush’s playful but practical tote, is always a good idea for day tours or carrying that extra knit while you’re out exploring.
But it’s not just about space—it’s about keeping things secure, too. On Laneway, you’ll find a Korjo crossbody bag that does triple duty as a passport holder, RFID-blocking travel wallet for your debit/credit cards, and money belt. It’s compact, discreet, and easy to wear while you travel. Got an AirTag? Pair your luggage tag with Korjo’s TSA-approved luggage lock and heavy-duty luggage strap for extra peace of mind between check-in and baggage claim.
Travel in Comfort With Winter-Friendly Essentials
Cold cabins, dry air and extra layers can leave you feeling a little off by the time you land. But when you pre-order on Laneway, it wouldn’t take much to fix that. Travel pillows are a good place to start. While an inflatable one can work in a pinch, the trend this season is memory foam—and for good reason.
Korjo’s memory foam neck pillow offers better support, so you’re not constantly adjusting mid-flight. Add in a pair of Korjo compression socks and anti-nausea bands, and you’ve already made the trip a lot easier on your body.
Sleep can be elusive when sleeping in a new place, but a few small touches help. A silk sleep mask or eye mask from Slip blocks out harsh cabin light without irritating your skin. And while you’re at it, tuck in a pair of earplugs for a little quiet time.
A few skincare and body care must-haves—wipes, moisturiser, hand & body wash, and a travel-size lip balm—go a long way mid-flight or after landing. If you're heading somewhere cool and dry, you’ll want something that hydrates. Jurlique, Endota, and L’Occitane have best-selling winter-friendly options you’ll want on your wishlist. Staying hydrated helps, too. A reusable water bottle or stainless-steel tumbler with a silicone seal from Kinto is practical for stopovers and sightseeing.
Must-Have Travel Accessories to Keep Your Tech Connected and Ready
Cold weather usually means longer flights, more time indoors, and fewer chances to recharge on the go. That’s when the right tech accessories really earn their place in your bag.
A power bank and compact charger help you stay connected when power points are limited, while a luggage scale comes in handy when your suitcase starts filling up with coats, boots and duty free extras. These are the small pieces of travel gear that tend to come through when you need them most.
For extra flexibility, Korjo’s USB power hubs and multi-port travel adaptors cover everything from Japan to Australia. If you’re flying with someone, their headphone splitter audio jack is another easy win for passing the time together in-flight. They’re not flashy, but they are practical. And when you’re travelling through winter, that’s what matters most.
