Away Kids Collection debuts travel gear for kids featuring a scaled-down suitcase and backpack in bright, travel-ready colours.
Away Kids Collection
Away’s new Kids Collection gives little travellers a suitcase of their own—finally, something they don’t have to share.
The range brings the brand’s well-known travel features, such as compression systems, spinner wheels, and sleek design, down to size. This launch introduces a dedicated kids’ range for travellers aged 4 to 7, starting with a kid-sized Carry-On and a matching Backpack.
They have the same build quality but smaller handles, and yes, they’re still stylish enough to match Mum and Dad’s set.
The Kids Carry-On Away Kids Collection
This is a shrunken version of the classic Away suitcase, redesigned with tiny travellers in mind. The Kids Carry-On weighs just 2.6 kg and measures 39.8 x 26.7 x 19.5cm, meeting most airline cabin size regulations.
It features a rigid, 100% polycarbonate shell in five standout colourways: Sunshine Yellow, Splash Blue, Froggy Green, Poppy Orange, and Cotton Candy Pink. The exterior has 360° spinner wheels and a two-height telescopic handle so kids and adults can easily push it.
Inside, the dual-compartment layout mirrors the adult version. One side includes Away’s compression system to maximise packing space; the other offers a zippered mesh cover and a removable laundry bag.
It’s a practical layout that encourages kids to pack (and unpack) independently. This is handy when they insist on bringing three books, two soft toys, and one extremely specific T-shirt!
Kids Backpack Away Kids Collection
The Kids Backpack is small enough for daily adventures, yet roomy enough for trips to the airport and beyond. It’s made from lightweight, durable washed nylon in a playful colour-blocked design, available in Marshmallow White, Splash Blue, and Cotton Candy Pink.
The bag includes two internal compartments, a padded tablet sleeve, and mesh pockets for organising snacks, crayons, and toys.
The padded shoulder straps are adjustable, and a luggage sleeve slides onto any Away suitcase handle, including the Kids Carry-On case. It’s aimed at kids in the 4–7 age range, and there’s enough room for all the essentials, but not so much that it becomes a black hole for forgotten items.
The colours on both pieces have been designed to be fun without being too loud. However, they should easily stand out in a busy airport!
The dimensions are small enough for kids to handle while fitting within airline carry-on standards. As with most Away luggage, the optional monogramming service to personalise each piece is available, which will likely be a hit with younger travellers.
In addition to the Carry-On and Backpack, the complete Away Kids Collection includes coordinating accessories such as a lunch bag, packing cubes, and a mini toiletry case, all sold separately.
