    While visiting iconic landmarks, experiencing local culture and creating memories with your loved ones are all important, a jam-packed itinerary can often get the better of you – both physically and mentally. For a fun, worry-free trip, add these wellness must-haves to your travel packing checklist. 

    Another way to ensure ease of mind while travelling is with Cathay Rewards Annual Travel Cover , miles-rewarding travel protection that covers unexpected medical expenses, trip cancellation, loss of travel documents and more. Even better, earn up to (A)3,000 and receive a 20 per cent discount code on the Cathay Pacific x Samsonite suitcase collection when you purchase during August. 

    Two Cathay Pacific x Samsonite suitcases

    1. Cathay Pacific x Samsonite suitcase

    There’s nothing more stress-inducing than a bag that fails you on your trip – whether that’s because of broken zips or wobbly wheels. So, it pays to invest in a premium suitcase that you can rely on. Created in partnership with Samsonite, our first ever branded suitcase collection consists of a 28” option and a smaller 20” cabin-sized bag. Samsonite’s patented Aero-Trac suspension wheel system ensures your journey is always smooth, while interior lining and zips made of 100 per cent post-consumer recycled plastic bottles give them impressive eco-credentials. Both the 28” and carry-on bag contain compartments with zipped dividers to keep all your belongings well-organised and easy to find.
