Unfortunately, many miss out on making their vacays extra steamy due to misconceptions about pleasure products being inconvenient to bring with them. While it's true that some adult toys are best left at home (looking at you, giant sex machines), there are a wealth of sex toys that travel easily.

Travel-Friendly Sex Toy Features

So which sex toys should you invite to join you on your next trip? There are a few different qualities that make a pleasure product perfect to vacation with. For some, a single one of these features will work, while others may desire a toy that checks multiple travel-friendly boxes.

Travel Lock or Removable Batteries

A buzzing suitcase that hints at the sexy contents inside is a common concern, but embarrassing airport incidences are easily avoidable. Many of today's sex toys, especially those from premium brands, feature travel locks for this very reason! Travel locks require a particular pattern of button pushes to unlock them, meaning accidental pushes of your toy's "ON" button from jostling around won't power it up.

Battery-operated pleasure products are another great option for those worried about toys that cause noise. Simply remove the batteries before packing your sex toy, and you've got zero risk of it turning on during your travels!

Discreet Aesthetics

For the average traveler, the odds of TSA flagging your carry-on as suspicious and publicly rummaging through them are slim. Even on the off chance that they do, they're not gonna pick up your sex toy and wave it in the air like they just don't care – TSA is looking for weapons, not dildos. Weapons of mass destruction, not ass destruction, if you will. That being said, some folks prefer absolutely no one being privy to their titillating travel accessories. If that resonates with you, choosing visually discreet sex toys may ease your mind.

Some sex toys masquerade themselves as everyday products, while others may feature nondescript carrying cases that many would presume are holding electronics or other run-of-the-mill objects. And if you're really anxious about someone guessing that your sex toy is a sex toy, you can always opt for dual-purpose pleasure products like massage candles that aren't suspicious in the slightest.

Petite Size

Whether you want to fill almost every inch of your luggage with outfit options or are concerned about extra fees for heavy baggage, practically all travelers can agree that suitcase real estate is valuable. Opting for small sex toys like bullet vibrators or cock rings ensures you'll have enough room for your essentials without having to give up sweet vacation orgasms.

Erotic Opportunities

When choosing which toys to bring with you on vacay, think about your intended use for them and compare the product's features to your desires. For instance, if you know you wanna get down in your hotel's spacious shower, you'll need a waterproof sex toy. If you plan to play with a partner, you'll probably want a pleasure product that's designed for couples. Use common sense and pick a toy (or multiple ones) that you know will enhance your vacation experience and the vibe you're trying to create!

Tips for Traveling with Sex Toys

Now that you're acquainted with what qualities you might want to look for in a traveling pleasure product pal and have plenty of fab recommendations to consider, we'll leave you with a few helpful tips and reminders for your sure-to-be-bangin' vacation:

• Make sure to turn on your toy's travel lock or remove its batteries before packing it up. Travel-friendly features are only helpful if you remember to use them!

• Don't forget to bring chargers and batteries so you're ready to play as soon as you land and can keep on playing for your whole trip!

• If you're tight on suitcase space, get creative with packing and use every inch of real estate you've got. For instance, a tiny bullet could easily squeeze into a makeup travel case.
