This week’s Amazon Sunday is all about the travel pieces that earned their spot during our time in Europe. Some were essentials I always pack, while others were newer additions that made long flights, hotel stays, and busy days out and about feel so much easier.

The standouts were the little things that smoothed over the chaos of a travel day: AirTags in luggage for peace of mind, packing cubes that kept everyone organized, hand wipes for those long stretches in the airport, and portable chargers that kept us entertained gate to gate. I also included a few beauty and toiletry essentials that I rely on to feel refreshed after a full day of being on the move.

Browse the full selection below, and explore more in our JB Amazon Shop and Amazon Storefront, refreshed weekly.

Oooh: I’ve wanted a pair of these comfy pants from AYR for a while, and this may be a sale that’s too good to pass up. Readers love these pants for comfortable pull-on work pants and travel-friendly pants… they’re washable, they’re washable and available in three lengths.

The moss (the color pictured) is the only one in stock at the moment for a lot of sizes, but it’s a great sale — the pants are $165 full price, but the pants come down to $66. (They are final sale only, alas.)

(Readers also love (LOVE) these jeans, and I’ve also been scoping out this stand collar blouse.)

The sale ends in 12 hours, so if you want to poke around, now is the time! Have a great weekend, all.

Following the recent severe Venezuela earthquakes that struck north-centre of the country, establishing communication is vital for survival and peace of mind. If you are seeking immediate medical help or trying to track down missing loved ones, utilize these verified crisis response networks.

For Individuals Inside Venezuela

Local infrastructure has suffered massive disruptions, but emergency services are prioritizing active rescue and trauma care.

• National Emergency Hotline: Dial 911 for immediate police, fire, or ambulance deployment.

• Civil Protection (Protección Civil): Call +58 (212) 641-4774 for localized search-and-rescue assistance.

• Local Action: If cellular networks fail, proceed directly to the nearest converted public school or community center, which are currently operating as emergency shelters and donation hubs.

For Families Outside Venezuela (Locating Loved Ones)

With thousands displaced and communications unstable, finding family members requires specialized channels.

• Red Cross Restoring Family Links (RFL): The Venezuelan Red Cross is actively processing reunification requests. International relatives should contact their local national Red Cross or Red Crescent chapter to submit an official tracing request.

• U.S. Citizens: Families looking for American citizens in the affected zones can contact the U.S. Department of State via their 24/7 emergency line at +1-202-501-4444 (or toll-free within the U.S. at +1-888-407-4747).

• Digital Tracing: Keep an eye on major social media safety features (such as Facebook’s Crisis Response) where survivors are actively marking themselves safe as connectivity sporadically returns.

Following the devastating earthquakes in Venezuela, several United Nations agencies are actively sponsoring humanitarian aid operations and have launched emergency appeals for donations to support critical life-saving activities, such as providing shelter, medical care, and clean water.

Here are the primary UN-sponsored contacts and donation channels to support the relief efforts:

• UNHCR (UN Refugee Agency)UNHCR is scaling up its protection response and providing temporary shelter support for the most vulnerable people affected by the disaster.

  • How to Donate: Donate directly through the UNHCR Venezuela Emergency page.

  • International Office Contact: For information or to donate, you can contact the headquarters in Geneva at +41 22 739 8111 or email saltmars@unhcr.org for specific media/donor queries.
