The 40 Best Early Black Friday Travel Deals of 2025

Whether it involves booking a bucket list getaway, investing in a reliable luggage set, or stocking up on seasonal travel wardrobe staples, we here at Travel + Leisure subscribe to the old adage “the early bird gets the worm.” Act fast, and you’re guaranteed to snag the best seat on the plane, or a new drop from your favorite sneaker brand; but snooze around too long, and you may be left empty handed.

This sentiment certainly applies to sales—and 2025’s round of Black Friday deals have already dropped, well over a week in advance. To help you get a head start on the early savings, we’ve rounded up 40 of the best travel deals across the web, up to 82 percent off. From all-inclusive Sandals resort packages, to Virgin Voyages cruise trips, to comfy New Balance walking shoes, and everything in between, these travel deals can help you close out 2025 with a bang. But hurry—most of these early bird specials end soon.
