Packing is the biggest annoyance of any trip, but this gadget will help you get your suitcase closed. The tagline for the Aroo is “more clothes, less air.” By sucking the air out, you can get your clothes folded down smaller, thanks to this rechargeable vacuum compressor.

Using the Aroo could be the difference between flying with cabin baggage only or having to pay for a checked bag. As a result, it will quickly pay for itself. Plus, the device is so small it will slide neatly into your suitcase. At just 16 centimeters in length, it’s about the same size as your hand, and it only weighs 116 grams.

At $65 the Aroo isn’t too expensive, especially when you take into account the money and stress it could save you. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, the first Aroo products will ship in November 2018. You can still pre-order online now even if you missed the campaign.

Why travel with more bags than you really need? With a vacuum compressor like the Aroo you can streamline your luggage, save money and benefit from a less stressful airport experience. It makes a lot of sense.

Where Can You Find the Mai Tai Mile?

Stay at Kona Village on the Big Island of Hawai’i and you may think your experience consists solely of private, residential-style luxury and perhaps the occasional fresh pineapple, but Rosewood Resort has something else a little special. More specifically, Kona Village has its very own Mai Tai Mile, where guests can find four unique and different takes on the Mai Tai. Each distinct drink is inspired by its setting and comes with its own story.
