Luggage, travel tech and clothing, and the kitchen kit for cooking the trip at home, for readers about to buy.

  • 1 dispatch
A small cabin suitcase and a canvas day bag by the open door of a hotel room, a coat over the case and the morning light from the corridor.

Two kits: the one in the bag and the one in the kitchen once you are home. Cabin-bag limits differ from one airline to the next, so a case that flies free on one can cost extra on another. How to choose a cabin bag sets six airlines’ sizes side by side and shows how to measure a case packed, wheels and handles included. At home, a carbon-steel wok, a heavy pan and a mortar and pestle cook more of the world than a drawer of gadgets.
