As a food and travel writer, I frequently take long-haul flights and enjoy multi-course meals with wine pairings in far-flung destinations. All this traveling and imbibing is a lot of fun, but it can also leave me feeling uncomfortable at the end of the day: which is where a good pair of comfortable travel pants travel pants comes in handy.

If you’re spending any time traveling this summer, comfortable travel pants should be on your shopping list. I’ve been looking to snag a few new pairs of breathable pants that travel well and can work for just about anything, from a long flight to a day at the beach (maybe with lunch and exploring in between). In order to satisfy my clothing needs — and help you find some comfy picks, too — I’ve rounded up the best deals on travel pants at Amazon happening right now. I’ve included a variety of options depending on what kind of traveler you are, whether you need a new pair of hiking pants, comfy leggings to wear at home or on the plane, or breezy wide-leg pants for your next seaside escape. Some are as much as half off, which gives me a perfect excuse to stock up for months of travel to come!
