The 10 Best Luggage & Travel Gear Affiliate Programs of 2026 (Based on Data)
The luggage and travel gear affiliate category is crowded and surprisingly opaque. Of the 85 brands we track, more than half (55.8%) are "ghost programs" that report zero performance data. This makes finding reliable, high-earning partners a challenge. You can't just sort by commission rate and expect results.
Our analysis cuts through the noise to reveal the best luggage affiliate programs. We've identified a select group of direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands that are outperforming the legacy names. While our top 10 programs are all available on Skimlinks—a testament to the network's data transparency—the highest individual EPCs are hiding on other networks like Impact. This report gives you the data to target both broad-appeal programs and high-EPC sharpshooter opportunities.

Detailed Analysis
Top Luggage & Travel Gear Affiliate Programs Reviewed
Nobl Travel
SkimlinksAU/CA +4A $2.93 EPC is one of the highest in this category, making Nobl Travel a strong contender. The story behind that number is a 7.82% conversion rate on a $249 average basket with a generous 15% commission on Skimlinks — triple the 5% offered on Impact. This indicates strong product appeal and an effective sales funnel. The 2.0% reversal rate is modest and well within acceptable range given the strong top-line performance.
Aerless LLC
SkimlinksGlobalAerless delivers impressive performance on a lower-priced item. The $1.62 EPC is driven by a very high 13.86% conversion rate and a generous 14.8% commission. This program is ideal for content focused on packing hacks, budget travel, and avoiding airline fees. The product's utility is self-evident, which likely explains the high conversion. A sub-1% reversal rate (0.9%) adds to the program's reliability, ensuring you keep what you earn.
COCOON
SkimlinksUSCOCOON targets a specific niche of adventure and holiday travelers with its compact travel sheets and accessories. A 15% commission is one of the highest in our top 10, and it pairs well with a solid 6.34% conversion rate. While the $76 average basket is modest, the high commission means you're still earning over $11 per sale. The 2.5% reversal rate is healthy, making this a reliable choice for affiliates with an audience that values practical, space-saving gear.
Travelpro
SkimlinksCA/USAs a well-known brand, especially among frequent flyers, Travelpro brings name recognition that can help with conversions. The data backs this up: a respectable $0.69 EPC is built on a healthy $211 average basket and a 3.25% conversion rate. The 10% commission on Skimlinks is strong, and a 0% reversal rate is as good as it gets, signaling high customer satisfaction and minimal returns. This is a dependable program for any travel-focused content creator.
Vagabond Life
SkimlinksUSVagabond Life proves that a low average basket size doesn't have to mean low earnings. Their unique travel keepsakes have massive appeal, driving an impressive 11.59% conversion rate. Even with a $43 AOV and a 6.8% commission, the high conversion volume adds up. A 27-day cookie provides a good attribution window, and the 0% reversal rate is a strong positive signal. This is a great fit for social media influencers and bloggers with an engaged, travel-loving audience.
DELSEY Paris
SkimlinksUSAnother recognized brand, DELSEY Paris, offers a solid mid-tier performance. The $0.27 EPC is respectable, supported by a $189 average basket and a 10% commission. The conversion rate of 1.41% is on the lower side for this list, suggesting it's a more considered purchase, but the higher ticket price compensates for that. With a 0% reversal rate, it's a reliable earner for affiliates targeting audiences interested in stylish and durable luggage. The 13-day cookie is short, so a strong call-to-action is key.
Cram Travel LLC
SkimlinksUSCram Travel's standout feature is its 16.1% commission rate, the highest in our top 10. This helps offset a more modest EPC of $0.14. With a $59 basket and a 1.47% conversion rate, this program requires volume to be a significant earner. However, for content that can drive high traffic for travel accessories, that top-tier commission rate can be very rewarding. The 7-day cookie is short, so affiliates should focus on content that encourages immediate purchase decisions.
Gonex LLC
SkimlinksUSGonex focuses on low-cost, high-utility items like packing cubes, which is reflected in the data. The average basket is just $39, but a strong 3.44% conversion rate shows these products are an easy add-to-cart for travelers. The 8.9% commission and 0% reversal rate make it a steady, if not spectacular, performer. This program is best suited for packing-list articles, gear reviews, and content aimed at organized or budget-conscious travelers where small, incremental sales can add up.
Heys America
SkimlinksThe Heys America program is a classic example of a high-ticket, low-conversion product. The 0.57% conversion rate is the lowest on this list, but it's paired with a $146 average basket and a strong 12% commission. This means each conversion is valuable, generating over $17 in commission. This program is a good fit for fashion-forward travel blogs and review sites that can effectively showcase the stylish designs and persuade readers to make a considered purchase.
Cabin Max
SkimlinksGBCabin Max is a volume play, pure and simple. With a product designed to meet strict budget airline size requirements, the target audience is clear and motivated. The $36 basket size is the lowest in our top 10, and the one-day cookie is extremely restrictive. However, a 10% commission, 2.38% conversion rate, and 0% reversals make it a viable option for affiliates who can drive high-intent traffic, particularly from audiences in Europe searching for specific airline compliance (e.g., Ryanair, EasyJet).
What About Samsonite and Away?
You've probably noticed that some of the biggest household names in luggage are missing from our top 10. This isn't an oversight; it's a data-driven conclusion. While brands like Samsonite and Away have massive consumer recognition, their affiliate programs often don't deliver the same level of performance as the DTC brands that lead our list.
Samsonite runs programs across multiple networks, but our data shows commissions are typically in the 4-5% range, significantly lower than the 10-16% offered by our top performers. Their EPCs in our database don't justify a top spot when compared to the earnings potential of hungrier, more affiliate-friendly brands.
Away is another story. While it's a social media darling, its primary marketing motion is a customer referral program, not a traditional affiliate program for content creators. We do track an affiliate program for Away on FlexOffers, but its 2.4% commission and $0.21 EPC are underwhelming. For most affiliates, promoting Away means settling for less than what competitor programs are willing to offer.
Cross-Network Data
Same Brand, Different Networks: Where to Get the Best Deal
Many brands run programs on multiple affiliate networks, often with different commission rates, cookie durations, and performance. Choosing the right network for a specific brand can have a significant impact on your earnings. Here's a look at the data for several popular luggage brands.

Luggage & Travel Gear Affiliate Programs: What the Data Shows
The luggage category is a story of contrasts. While the average EPC is a modest $0.60, top performers like Nobl Travel ($2.93) and Aerless ($1.62) show that exceptional earnings are possible. The most striking finding is the network distribution: Skimlinks dominates our top 10, largely because it provides more complete performance data. This makes it a great starting point for new affiliates in this space.
However, the highest single EPC we've tracked, Aerless on Impact, earns a staggering $5.56 per click. This highlights a key strategy for experienced affiliates: use the transparent data from Skimlinks to find reliable performers, but test high-EPC programs on less transparent networks like Impact and CJ for potentially explosive returns. The average basket size of $413 across programs reporting this metric is skewed by high-end retailers; our top performers show a more realistic range from $36 to $249, emphasizing the need to align product price point with your audience.
Data Insight
A staggering 55.8% of luggage affiliate programs in our database are "ghosts"—they exist on networks but report zero performance data. This highlights the value of focusing on the proven earners, as chasing unvetted programs is a gamble with poor odds.
Worth Watching: High-EPC Programs with Thin Data
Some programs show incredible EPCs but lack the complete data (like conversion or reversal rates) to make our top 10. These are higher-risk but potentially higher-reward opportunities worth testing if your audience is a perfect match. Keep an eye on Aerless LLC on Impact ($5.56 EPC), Briggs & Riley on CJ ($1.14 EPC), and Solgaard on Impact ($1.01 EPC). The EPCs are strong, but you'll need to run your own tests to verify their true performance.

Explore Luggage & Travel Gear ProgramsHow to Choose a Luggage & Travel Gear Affiliate Program
Look beyond the advertised commission rate. The highest-performing programs are a mix of several factors. Use our data to make smarter choices.
First, use EPC as your north star, but with context. A program like Aerless on Impact shows a massive $5.56 EPC, but with no public conversion rate, it requires a test budget. Contrast that with Nobl Travel on Skimlinks, where a $2.93 EPC is backed by a transparent 7.82% conversion rate, making it a more predictable bet.
Second, consider the trade-off between commission rate and brand recognition. A little-known brand like Cram Travel might offer a 16% commission, while a well-known brand like Travelpro offers 10%. The established trust of Travelpro might lead to a higher conversion rate, potentially earning you more despite the lower commission. Your decision should be based on whether your content is better at discovery (introducing new brands) or validation (confirming choices for known brands).
Finally, pay attention to which networks provide the most data. Our analysis shows Skimlinks offers the most complete metrics for this category, making it easier to vet programs. However, networks like Impact and CJ hide some of the highest EPCs. A balanced strategy involves using both: Skimlinks for reliable, data-rich programs and other networks for targeted, high-EPC test campaigns.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best luggage affiliate programs?
Based on our performance data, the best luggage affiliate programs for earning potential include Nobl Travel, Aerless, and Travelpro. These programs demonstrate a strong combination of high earnings per click (EPC), solid conversion rates, and substantial commission rates. However, the 'best' program ultimately depends on its fit with your specific audience and content strategy.
Does Samsonite have an affiliate program?
Yes, Samsonite has affiliate programs available on multiple networks, including CJ Affiliate and Impact. They typically offer commissions in the 4-5% range. While Samsonite is a globally recognized brand, its affiliate program does not currently rank in our data-driven top 10 because its performance metrics, such as EPC, are less competitive than the niche brands we've highlighted in this analysis.
Does Away have an affiliate program?
Away has a very limited affiliate presence on networks like FlexOffers and is better known for its direct-to-consumer referral program ('give $20, get $20'). Our data shows a low 2.4% commission and a modest $0.21 EPC for its affiliate program, making it a less attractive option for performance-focused content creators compared to other programs on our list.
How much commission can you earn from travel gear affiliate programs?
Commissions for travel gear affiliate programs typically range from 4% to over 16%. Our analysis of 85 programs found an average commission rate of 7.1%. High-performing programs in our top 10, such as Aerless and COCOON, offer rates around 15%. Your total earnings depend on the program's commission rate, conversion rate, and your audience's purchasing habits.
Which affiliate networks are best for travel gear?
Our data shows that while Skimlinks hosts the highest number of luggage programs with complete data, networks like Impact and CJ host some of the highest-EPC programs. Experienced affiliates should consider joining multiple networks to access the best-performing brands like Aerless on Impact and Briggs & Riley on CJ.
