Away Luggage

Away is a travel products company based in New York, US, and was founded in 2016. Its founders, Stephanie Korey and Jen Rubio, wanted to rethink modern travel bags. Their first product,” Carry-on,” a hard-shell suitcase, was intended to make packing and traveling easier. It is now known as a direct-to-consumer company that distributes luggage and accessories through its online platform and retail locations.

The main products to be offered by the company include suitcases and travel luggage that may be used on various kinds of trips and packing requirements. They come in various shapes and sizes, like carry-on suitcases, medium and large checked luggage, expandable suitcases, and trunk-style luggage. The bags are made of lightweight polycarbonate shells, have 360-degree spinner wheels, TSA-approved locks, and internal compression systems that assist travelers in arranging clothes in an efficient way. The prices tend to vary between approximately 225-400 dollars based on size and style.

In addition to suitcases, Away also offers travel accessories and bags. These are the backpacks, duffel bags, travel organizers, toiletry bags, packing cubes, laptop bags, garment bags, and small crossbody bags. During the past few years, Away added more product lines, including soft-sided luggage lines that are popular with those who use the luggage but would choose flexible luggage instead of the hard shell.

Away provides additional customer service features like free shipping on luggage purchases, a 100-day money-back guarantee on unused products, and a limited lifetime warranty on suitcases. Through its online product, the brand also publishes travel guides and editorial content as a way of connecting with travelers and marketing travel experiences to accompany its products. The company has, over the years, been featured in magazines like TIME and Fast Company, among others, for its product design and innovations in the travel industry.

The brand’s retail outlets are operational in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. The company has also diversified to other distribution channels in the retail marketplace, like large department stores and web markets, in addition to its own stores. Away is still growing its product lines and retail stores as it aims to make travel items more convenient and stylish among contemporary travelers.
