Big News: We have officially teamed up with basketball superstar, Sabrina Ionescu, for our latest partnership Away x Sabrina Ionescu. 🏀 A four-time WNBA All-Star and one of the most influential players in the game, Sabrina is redefining what it means to be a modern athlete. This marks the first-ever partnership between a WNBA player and a luggage brand. Together, Ionescu’s leadership on and off the court and Away’s innovation in the luggage industry demonstrate how true trailblazers can inspire communities, reshape categories, and create lasting impact. From co-creating a limited-edition collection launching in 2026, to supporting young athletes through her SI20 Foundation, to outfitting her Liberty teammates all season long, this partnership is all about performance, impact, and movement. “At Away, we're inspired by those who push boundaries and redefine expectations in their fields. Sabrina is not only a generational talent, but embodies the bold spirit, leadership, and forward momentum that Away champions," said Jessica Schinazi, CEO of Away.

This summer, we didn’t want to just launch a campaign—we wanted to tap into a cultural truth. Introducing “Get Away”, a campaign rooted in the collective need to disconnect and recharge, marking a strategic evolution in how we connect with travelers today. At a time when overwhelm is the norm, we’re reinforcing our belief that travel isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. Away has always been about more than luggage, and this campaign continues that story, tapping into the emotional resonance behind travel, whether it's a long-awaited escape or a spontaneous weekend getaway. In that same spirit, we’ve made the intentional decision to hold prices steady through the summer, staying true to the customer-first approach we’ve taken from day one. Our VP of Marketing Christine Petric Gallagher sat down with Forbes to share more on the strategy behind Get Away, which spans full-funnel creative, guerrilla activations, social-first partnerships, and hyper-contextual OOH across NYC Ferry, Chicago Water Taxi, Dallas Trolley, and Hampton Jitney, designed to meet travelers exactly where they are—both physically and emotionally. The time to get away is now. ✈️ https://lnkd.in/gGZGYgtF

In recognition of Juneteenth yesterday, we honored a powerful moment in U.S. history and reflected on the resilience, joy, and ongoing fight for equity it represents. This year, we embraced the opportunity not just to observe the day, but to intentionally create space for Black artistry, celebration, and connection across our team and broader community. On Wednesday, Away's Black Collective ERG brought that spirit to life at our NoHo store, hosting an incredible Juneteenth event. From a powerful spoken word performance by Roya Marsh, to live luggage painting by Haenley Pierre (with proceeds benefiting Covenant House, supporting NYC youth facing homelessness), our ERG members, employees, and local community enjoyed an evening of celebration and reflection alike. Our ERGs are the heart of employee engagement at Away. They create spaces for connection, cultural celebration, and shared purpose — and we're so grateful to The Black Collective for leading the way. 🖤❤️💚 #Juneteenth #EmployeeEngagement #LifeAtAway #ERG #AwayTogether
