Prime Day doesn’t officially start until tomorrow, but Amazon’s already rolling out some of the best Apple deals we’ve seen. From Apple AirPods to the latest iPad, today’s early deals includes big discounts on some of Apple's most travel-friendly devices.

Spoiler alert: the Apple AirPods Pro 3 and AirTag 2nd generation are the lowest pricing we've seen to date. Note that availability (and prices) can change fast, but this reflects what we saw this morning.

That means if you’ve been holding out for a price drop on AirTags, AirPods, or the new iPad A16, you don’t need to wait any longer. These deals are live now and ready to grab. Here are all the details on discounts we're already seeing for Apple products at Amazon.

Apple AirPods

If new wireless earbuds are on your travel wish list, now’s a great time to grab a pair.

First, the Apple AirPods Pro 3 are available for just $179.99 — the lowest price yet. While these AirPods have been on sale in the past, this is still a $20 discount from the more common sale price. The Apple AirPods Pro 3 are the most recently released earbuds in the Apple suite, with stronger noise cancellation, longer battery life, integrated heart rate sensing, and a smaller design with foam-infused tips for better sealing. They're a game-changer for travelers, allowing you to enjoy peace and quiet on your next flight, or in a busy airport or subway.

If you're looking for a less expensive pair, Apple’s AirPods 4 are currently available for just $99. Just note that we saw them sell for slightly less during last year's Prime Day event, so there's always a chance they'll get less expensive as the week goes on, but no guarantee.

There are also the AirPods 4 with ANC for $148.99. These are sleek, lightweight, and perfect for noisy planes or commutes. They're usually on sale in the $160ish range, but we've seen significantly lower prices in the past, too. So if you're not in a rush, you might want to hold out.

For those who prefer over-the-ear headphones instead of earbuds, Apple AirPods Max Wireless headphones are also being sold at just $429.99 — $120 off the regular price. Availability is in and out, so if you don't see the sale price, keep checking throughout the day — or see if another color is in stock.

The AirPods Max Wireless headphones come in six sleek colors, offer a customizable fit for all-day comfort, and feature Active Noise Cancellation with up to 20 hours of listening time.

All of these models pair instantly with Apple devices and are a favorite among frequent travelers, especially for long-haul flights. And if you want to use them with an airplane’s seatback screen, the AirFly Pro is a simple Bluetooth adapter that lets you connect any wireless headphones to your plane’s inflight system.

Apple AirTags

If there’s one thing I can’t recommend enough for travelers, it’s Apple AirTags. These affordable little silver disks connect to your iPhone and use Bluetooth technology to act as a tracking device for anything you own. That includes your bags while you're traveling.

Typically, a 4-pack of AirTags costs $99, which averages out to about $25 per AirTag. But right now, Amazon is pricing the brand-new 2nd generation AirTag 4-pack at just $89. This is the first time the new Apple AirTag has been on sale, making it an ideal time to buy. Improvements to the new AirTag include enhanced Precision Finding, a built-in speaker that's 50% louder, and an updated design that makes it harder to tamper with the device and remove the speaker.

The new Apple AirTag is here. Here's what actually changed.

While many people might use AirTags at home — affixing one to their keychain, wallet, or even their pets — they're also a terrific option for keeping an eye on your bags while traveling, especially now that over a dozen airlines are partnering with Apple. While I recommend having one in every checked bag, keeping one in your carry-on bag is always a smart idea as well.

Apple iPad

The 11th-generation iPad A16 is matching its normal sale price, with two options: The 128GB selling for $299 and the 256GB for $399. That's a $50 discount on each, and less than what you'd pay if you bought them directly from Apple. Similar to some other Apple products, there's a slight chance we'll see this item go down even further during the week.

This latest iPad is a great pick for travel, with an 11-inch Liquid Retina display featuring True Tone, 12MP front and rear cameras, and up to 10 hours of battery life.

The iPad A16 comes in four color options — silver, blue, pink, and yellow. And while every color is available at these low prices at the time of writing, we suspect some will start to sell out come Prime Day.

This is a golden opportunity to score one of the best tablets on the market at a seriously great price.

Make sure you're ready for all the Prime Day deals

We fully expect Amazon to roll out even more deals on many of our favorite travel products starting tomorrow, and through the entire Prime Day event from June 23rd to 26th. Check out our guide on getting ready for Prime Day, and make sure you're in position to score the biggest discounts, and keep the following in mind to save.

Use your credit card points

Many credit card rewards programs offer special savings at Amazon when you apply just a single point to your purchase.

While we usually recommend saving your points for better-value travel redemptions, it's worth using a point (or a few, if required) to pay at Amazon when these deals come around just to reap the savings.

These offers are typically targeted, but there are several available right now that could save you money if you're eligible.

Currently, folks with an American Express card that earns Membership Rewards points can save as much as 40% off their Amazon purchases, up to a maximum of $40 off.

Not everyone will get the same offer, and some people might not see any offer at all. You can check your personal offer by clicking here.

Additionally, we're seeing that some cardmembers are receiving a 30% discount when paying with Blue Cash Reward Dollars (up to $30 off).

Use the Amazon Prime Visa

Having an Amazon credit card can also save you money. The Prime Visa gets you 5% back on Amazon.com purchases with an eligible Prime membership, and it's currently offering a $200 Amazon gift card as a sign-up bonus to new applicants.

You'll be able to use the card through your Amazon account immediately after getting approved, so you don't have to worry about it arriving in time.
