Prime Day travel deals

Updated June 2026

Prime Day 2026 (June 23-26) reaches beyond the cart into travel. Prime members get up to 30% off base rates with Avis and Budget car rentals, plus 10% off select Chicago hotels — a useful window if a summer trip is on the calendar. The car-rental discount applies broadly to base rates, while the hotel offer is limited to select Chicago properties, so check whether it fits your itinerary before counting on it.

Travel deals are the easiest Prime Day perk to overlook because they are not in the deal grid. But if a summer trip is anywhere on your horizon, the rental-car and hotel savings during June 23-26 can outweigh anything in your shopping cart. Here is what is on offer and the travel tech worth packing.

Up to 30% off Avis and Budget

Prime members get up to 30% off base rates on Avis and Budget car rentals during the event. "Up to" is doing real work there — the headline rate won't apply to every location or date — but if you have a road trip or a fly-and-drive booked for summer, it is worth comparing the Prime rate against your usual booking site before you lock anything in.

10% off select Chicago hotels

Members also get 10% off select Chicago hotels. It is a narrow, city-specific perk, so skip it if Chicago isn't on your route. If it is, it stacks neatly with the rental-car discount for a cheaper overall trip — just confirm the property is part of the offer before you assume the rate.

Pack smarter with travel tech

Deals come and go, but the right gear makes every trip smoother. Noise-cancelling earbuds turn a crowded flight quiet, an AirTag in your checked bag means you always know where it is, and an e-reader carries a whole vacation's worth of books without the weight.

Travel-tech picks worth a price alert

Three picks that reliably dip during the event: a Kindle Paperwhite, so your library packs flat and survives the pool; an AirTag tracker to keep tabs on checked luggage; and Soundcore earbuds, the affordable way to get in-flight quiet without spending premium-headphone money. Set a price alert on whichever ones you actually need rather than buying all three.
