Whether you’re heading home for a long-weekend with family, or planning a romantic getaway, a weekend bag is an essential part of any on-the-go wardrobe . With summer on the horizon, we are all in need of a stylish solution to lugging around our sun hats, bikinis and SPF . Don’t get stuck struggling on the train platform with multiple exploding carrier bags tearing at the seams. Instead, opt for a chic and sizeable holdall bag that will neatly package all the knick-knacks needed for the ultimate summer stay.

While a weekend bag is of course a necessary companion over the summer months, do not underestimate the countless occasions throughout the rest of the year where you will thank yourself (and us) for adding such a practical item to your arsenal. Be it an important business trip, a hen-do, or a countryside getaway, owning a bag that holds all your gadgets, clothes, shoes , and snacks, is nothing short of a sartorial super power.

Why Shop With Us

InStyle / Kristin Kempa

Allow me to start this article by saying I’m on a plane roughly eight to ten times a year. I absolutely adore travel, and even made it around the world backpacking by myself for a year. Needless to say, I know a thing or two about smart packing . When the world shut down and the option to travel was removed from our fingertips, it became all the more important to exercise our freedom to take a trip when it opened up again. Knowing this, more and more brands conveniently began crafting travel bags that accommodated the new wave of travelers — simplifying, organizing, and smoothing out suitcases and bags.

We tested said bags in our labs and in real life, doing so much as throwing suitcases onto the floor and seeing how they endured. As we boarded planes, we observed how quickly we could reach for our passports, and whether there was a safe space for our laptops to fit into. We took note of how smoothly wheels rolled over the French cobblestone streets or how heavy a duffel bag felt on our shoulders. Thus, we were able to compile this handy dandy list of 12 best travel bags and carry-on suitcases, based on our own personal experiences.

Best Overall

Dagne dover landon carryall bag.

• Capacity 5 /5
• Design 5 /5
• Portability 4 /5
• Value 3.5 /5
• Durability 3.8 /5

What We Love: It comes with ample amounts of sleeves, pockets, and even a shoe bag.

What We Don’t Love: Neoprene is prone to creasing.

We’re big fans of Dagne Dover’s neoprene collection, having tested their belt bags and backpacks already. We weren’t surprised, therefore, when this Carryall Bag impressed us just as much as their other products. With inside pockets (both slip and zip), we were able to place a laptop into the sleeve in addition to a water bottle and a passport into their dedicated slots. Still, there was plenty of room in the main compartment for all our clothes. Included in the bundle are two removable pouches — a shoe bag and a mesh zip pouch — as well.

Most notably, the top zip extends out an extra few inches, maximizing the space to stuff our cute weekend outfits. If we didn’t need the extra space, we could clip the sides down to keep everything looking compact. Dagne Dover also offers the bag in five sizes, ensuring there’s an option that’s just right for you. Lastly, there’s an outer slip intended to be used over a suitcase handle, so the bag could stay safe and flush against our carry-on. While neoprene is very soft and lightweight, it is prone to creasing, we noticed. Still, its durability makes up for it, and we know we’ll be using this year after year.

Dimensions: 20.5” L x 10” W x 10.5” H | Materials: Premium neoprene | Colors:  9

Best Budget

L.l. bean boat and tote, zip-top.

• Capacity 4 /5
• Portability 5 /5
• Ease of Use 3 /5

What We Love: You can add a personalized touch by getting it monogrammed.

What We Don’t Love: It doesn’t have any compartments for organization.

The L.L. Bean Boat and Tote bag is considered a staple beach bag for a reason. After owning this bag for just six months, InStyle ’s Associate Fashion Commerce Editor Hayley Prokos came to learn just how sturdy the canvas tote is. Not only that, but it’s become her go-to for basically all occasions, be it a personal item on a plane, a carryall for the beach, or an overnight tote to hold a change of clothes, shoes, and toiletry bag. (She uses the large size.) “Since the canvas maintains its shape when open, it’s extremely easy to pack. The only drawback is that it doesn't have any built-in compartments, but that hasn’t really bothered me, as I tend to keep small things in removable pouches that I can shuffle around in the bag,” she says. The large is fairly deep, so users can likely fit their things into it sans-problem. The fact that it’s monogrammable is just the icing on the cake. Choose between four different sizes and even two different top handle lengths — Prokos owns both the long and the short, swapping between them based on her needs.

Dimensions: 10.5” L x 5” W x 9.5” H  | Materials: Polyester | Colors: 13

Best Splurge

Coach gotham duffle.

• Ease of Use 4 /5

What We Love: The high-end leather and stitchings feel substantial, ensuring the bag will last a lifetime.

What We Don’t Love: There aren’t a lot of compartments.

We want the items that we splurge on to be items we keep forever, like this Gotham Duffle bag from Coach. While visiting the Coach store we had the pleasure of handling this deliciously smooth leather duffle and were impressed with how spacious it was. It’s likely that Mary Poppins bought her infinity bag from the same maker, considering how much we could fit in it. Although it’s not boasting a lot of compartments, it’s ideal for rolling up all of our clothes and shoes into the open space. The glove-tanned leather feels sturdy and substantial, making us feel confident it would endure a ton of tossing, shoving, and rough TSA handling. The minimalist and unisex aesthetic also ensures it won’t go out of style, so while the initial payment might seem like a lot, it’s really a steal if you divide it by the number of years for which you’re about to use it.

Dimensions: 19.75” L x  9” W x 11.5” H | Materials: Leather | Colors:  2

Best Leather

Madewell overnight bag in leather.

What We Love: The leather has only gotten better after four years of use.

What We Don’t Love: There is no laptop sleeve.

While many people are familiar with (and in love with) Madewell’s tote bag , we found all the similar great qualities in their overnight bag, plus Alpha. This option is a lot larger than their tote, but still small enough to fit under the seat in front of us. We’ve had this bag for over four years now, and the exterior leather has only gotten better in our opinion. It has endured all our not-so-gentle trips, protecting what’s inside even as we threw it into the trunk of a car.

Although there are two slip pockets in the interior where we typically keep our passport and phone, it doesn’t have a laptop sleeve, unfortunately. The bag gets rounded out as we stuff it with clothes, so it’s not the most laptop-friendly. Still, the combination of this weekender with a carry-on suitcase has saved us tons of money by not needing to check in a bag, while probably bringing the same amount of stuff as we would with a large suitcase.

Dimensions: 22.75” L x 13.37” W x 18” H | Materials: Leather | Colors:  2

Béis East To West Tote

• Ease of Use 5 /5

What We Love: There is a compartment for absolutely everything.

What We Don’t Love: The top zipper doesn’t close all the way.

Shay Mitchell’s company dedicated to all things travel didn’t miss a thing when it came to designing the perfect travel tote — it’s compartment-galore in and around this bag. We found pouches for our water bottles, a sleeve for our laptop, a zippered slit for our on-flight toiletries, two slots for our passport and phone, and even two pen hooks (key for someone who loves to journal on the plane).

Inside the exterior zipped pocket, there is a key leash, so that we may never have to rummage through our million things at the door. In the past year that we’ve owned this bag, it quickly became a life-saver of a tote, especially as people who are never on time and can’t be sorting through a black hole when we’re being pushed through a line. And yes, it comes with a slit for a suitcase handle as well, so even though we could carry it by the top handle or the shoulder strap, we don’t have to. The only con is that the top doesn’t zip all the way, which means extra attention needs to be paid in high-theft areas.

Dimensions: 9.06” L x 7.13” W x 14.17” H | Materials: Recycled polyester | Colors:  2

Best Compartmentalized

Lipault lost in berlin 24h bag.

What We Love: The cushiony exterior keeps everything safe on the inside.

What We Don’t Love: It’s not big enough to carry a range of shoe options.

We’ve been using this bag not just on our travels, but to the gym as well, giving it a bigger bang for its buck. It’s got two generously sized and zipped pockets on the exterior, making items like passports, phones, and chapsticks easy to grab and safe from theft. Thanks to the cushiony and soft exterior, our valuables on the inside always remain safe. There are even more compartments on the inside that are either zipped or meshed. And of course, a laptop sleeve can be found for anyone looking to use it on a business trip. As a little extra bonus, we love how the bag folds flat when not in use — it’s easy to store it away without taking up too much closet space. Overall, it’s not as big as some of the other bags we tested. At most, we’d feel comfortable packing one extra pair of shoes, but not a whole lot more.

Dimensions: 17.3” L x 9.8” W x 11.4” H | Materials: Polyester | Colors:  6

Best Convertible

Caraa studio tote.

What We Love: You can convert the tote into a backpack.

What We Don’t Love: The shoe compartment can only fit smaller or flat shoes.

At first glance, this black leather tote looks like any standard bag. But upon further inspection, we fell deeper and deeper in love with all the smart benefits it offers. There are removable straps that turn the tote into a backpack, so we could move around with our hands free. Because they are removable, they don’t dangle around and get in the way when we simply want to use it as a tote either.

We found a side zip that we used as a shoe compartment, although it only fits flat sandals or smaller shoes (i.e. no high heels). The interior is extremely spacious, too, which allowed us to roll multiple shirts and sweaters in. And so nothing goes missing, there is a laptop sleeve, a water bottle cinched pocket, and two larger slip pockets for passports, wallets, and phones. All in all, we could organize, bring a ton of items, and still look chic — a true win-win situation.

Dimensions: 10” L x 18” H | Materials: Leather | Colors:  1

Best Carry-on

Muji adjustable handle hard shell suitcase.

What We Love: The wheels run very smoothly and can be locked into place when not in use.

What We Don’t Love: It doesn’t come with any additional pouches or perks.

We didn’t know how smooth wheels could roll until pushing this carry-on suitcase through rough pebbled European streets. No matter how heavy the case was packed, it would still roll as though it only carried a feather. Muji has an extensive travel collection which we all adore, but this simple yet elegant suitcase has to take the cake. We could easily fit enough items for a week-long getaway. The two interior compartments are divided by a zippered mesh flap, where we keep miscellaneous items like notebooks. When the suitcase is closed, we could clip the zipper handles into its designated clasp on the side and lock it with a key, giving it an extra layer of anti-theft protection. And the best part? We could lock the wheels from rolling, allowing us to leave it standing on a moving train without it skedaddling down the aisle. While many modern suitcases come with additional pouches or even charging pods, this suitcase does not.

Dimensions: 14.6” L x 9.4” W x 21.3” H | Materials: Recycled polycarbonate, recycled polyester, polyester | Colors:  5

Best for Organizing

Paravel aviator carry-on.

What We Love: It comes with a compression board that helps to save space.

What We Don’t Love: It’s slightly heavier than your average carry-on suitcase.

Anyone looking to book a luxurious trip should have an equally luxurious suitcase to match. Owning the Paravel Aviator Carry-On felt like a beautiful travel experience in itself. Dare we say we actually enjoyed packing for once? That’s because it comes with multiple interior pockets, a separate laundry bag, and an interior compression board, which helps to press down clothing and allow for more space. And packing cubes made separating shoes from clothes a breeze. All of the details are beautifully designed, with vegan leather finishes and buttery smooth zippers — which by the way, could be locked and sealed for anti-theft. Much like the Muji option, the wheels on this suitcase glided so smoothly it was as though it were floating.

Yes, it’s a little pricier than other options, but it does come with a 10-year warranty that allows you to get manufacturing defects fixed, free of cost. We did notice that at 8.2 pounds the suitcase is a little heavier than some of the others we tested. Considering it’s a carry-on, it plays less of a role at TSA. But if you’re trying to slim down your luggage weight as much as possible perhaps this is not the one for you.

Dimensions: 13.7” L x 9” W x 21.7” H | Materials: Recycled polycarbonate, recycled aluminum handles, recycled zippers, vegan leather | Colors:  5

Best Weekender

Calpak hue laptop duffel.

• Capacity 4.5 /5
• Durability 5 /5

What We Love: A padded laptop sleeve saves us from needing to bring an extra bag for our laptop.

What We Don’t Love: We wish there were a few more color options.

Duffel bags are a favorite go-to for little weekend getaways, and this option from Calpak offered far more than just a big empty space for clothes. If you're looking for something that also functions as a laptop bag , this option has a padded laptop sleeve that protected our laptop during transportation. A discreet phone slit made answering phone calls easy, and various pockets in and around the bag offered more ways to organize our valuables. A little slot fit for suitcase handles allowed us to keep everything together and our hands free. When we’re not traveling, the bag doubles as a great gym bag, giving us more chances to use it in everyday life. We would have loved a few more color options, like navy and white, but the four currently available will suit most tastes.

Dimensions: 18” L x 9.5” W x 10” H | Materials: Polyester, polyurethane | Colors:  4

Best for Business

Away the everywhere bag.

• Organization 5 /5
• Portability 3.5 /5

What We Love: Its sleek appeal makes it easy to go straight from the airport to a meeting.

What We Don’t Love: We wish it were a tiny bit bigger to fit an extra outfit.

Going somewhere for business? This bag from Away looks like a large briefcase and functions partly as one, too. With a separate compartment for laptops, pouches for notebooks and pens, a zippered section for wallets and passports, and a mesh pocket for a water bottle, the Everywhere bag has been a sleek way to organize all our business essentials. The center compartment is large enough to pack enough clothes for a two-day trip, we found, but not more. With how sleek and minimalist the bag looks, we could easily carry it from the plane to the meeting without stopping by a hotel. After accidentally spilling some water onto the bag while being served by a flight attendant, we were happy to find the exterior was completely water-resistant.

Dimensions: 16.3” L x 7.3” W x 10.2” H | Materials: Nylon, leather | Colors:  5

Best Duffel

L.l. bean adventure rolling duffle.

• Design 3.5 /5
• Portability 3 /5
• Durability 4 /5

What We Love: You could roll the bag like a standard suitcase.

What We Don’t Love: The zip doesn’t open up very wide.

L.L. Bean has been a trusted destination for all things adventure. Although this rolling duffle bag didn't open as wide as we had hoped, the interior is deceptively large. It felt as though we could keep placing items in it and it would magically expand internally. On top of being able to hold it using the top handles, it could also be rolled like a regular suitcase. It surely made whizzing from point A to B much lighter. Thankfully, the wheels were incredibly smooth. And because the material is water-resistant, we didn’t break a sweat when rolling over any surprise puddles.

Dimensions: 12” L x 9” W x 23” H | Materials: Nylon, polyurethane | Colors:  7

First, we tapped into our rich pool of editors, writers, and travelers to see which travel bags were being bought and used organically. We rounded up our personal favorites and dropped a few of those selections here. Next, we called in multiple suitcases and bags into our testing lab and put them through a series of tests, including stuffing them to the brim to see how much they hold and weigh, checking how easy it is to utilize the compartments, observing how smoothly everything zipped, and feeling how well they rolled on the floor. We even threw the suitcases on the floor to see if anything would break, snap, or scratch. Those who passed all of our tests were then recommended in this article.

Did you know there isn’t one universal carry-on size requirement that all airlines adhere to? It’s actually up to individual airlines to determine carry-on and checked luggage size requirements, as opposed to TSA. This means that different restrictions may apply from flight to flight (though a commonly accepted maximum carry-on size is 22 x 14 x 9 inches). If you don’t mind checking a bag, then no need to worry, but if you, like us, dread the baggage claim carousel, be mindful of dimensions when selecting your next bag (the Paravel Aviator Carry-On should do just the trick, no matter your travel plans). For shoulder bags like the Madewell The Essential Overnight Bag in Leather , they should be compact enough to fit under the seat in front of you.

Travel bags come equipped with many features, like dirty laundry dividers, specific pockets for tech devices, weight indicators, and more. “I do believe that form follows function,” says Nteta. “When it comes to functionality, I always look for my carry-on to be expandable and have organizational features so that I can separate things out properly and easily access must-haves like my laptop and wallet.” Options like the Paravel Aviator Carry-On features a compression board and a laundry pouch, while the Dagne Dover Landon Neoprene Carryall Bag comes with two additional pouches for delicates. The L.L. Bean Boat and Tote Ziptop may not come with any compartments, but it does give you various size options to choose from including different handle lengths. Add on the fact that you can add a monogram, its personalization capabilities make it stand out from the rest.

When shopping for luggage, really try to imagine yourself carrying this bag throughout various lifestyle scenarios. Can you schlepp the thing through an airport, onto a train, then onto a subway, and then up the four flights of stairs to your Airbnb? If it’s lightweight like the Muji Adjustable Handle Hard Shell Suitcase , you should be just fine! Meanwhile, a non-wheeled duffel like the Calpak Hue Laptop Duffel might be better suited for car travel like road trips or packing for that pet-sitting gig you have several towns over.

Your Questions, Answered 

What type of bag is good for international travel .

If you’re making the trek outside of the country, you’re likely staying for more than a weekend, requiring a larger checked bag. For international travel, we recommend looking for a suitcase with TSA-approved locking capabilities (such as the Muji Adjustable Handle Hard Shell Suitcase and the Paravel Aviator Carry-On ), weight indicators (weight restrictions for checked luggage can vary from airline to airline — research ahead of time), and smooth 360 wheels (international airports require a lot of walking). A bag that expands isn’t a bad idea either, just in case you come home with souvenirs. We’ve seen plenty of options where the tote or duffel bag actually attaches itself onto a suitcase, like the Beis The East to West Tote or the Away the Everywhere Bag . The feature makes them especially great for when you're rushing between connections and need to move quickly.

How do you pack a carry-on-sized bag for a multi-night trip?

Most carry-on-sized bags can accommodate three to four days' worth of clothes… if you know how to stretch your base layers, shoes, and accessories. “I do my best to keep to one suitcase by packing versatile clothing pieces that I can pair and style differently,” explains Nteta. Though she notes it does take a bit of planning, it creates a more stress-free travel experience overall. “For example, I select a pair of trousers and work out all the different tops and looks I can create with that one pair of trousers,” she says. “The key is to consider how you can layer foundational items and then elevate with accessories.”

How do you safely transport makeup and other liquid toiletries?

“When I travel, I don't compromise on my skincare routine, so I need a lot of pockets to organize things like cotton pads, Q-Tips, tweezers, and more,” says world-traveling content creator Kristina Rodulfo. (We’ve tested a bunch of toiletry bags and found the seven best (and safest) options here .) “When you have liquid makeup like foundation, you want to ensure none of your clothes or other valuables get messy.” As an additional suggestion, she recommends the Ries Essential Travel Bottles for their airless pump and ability to securely stash 3.4 ounces of all your favorite products. “I have my Ries bottles filled and always ready to go for my next trip,” she says.

29 Best Travel Accessories That Are Game Changers

By Rachel Dube

All products are independently selected by our editors. If you buy something, we may earn an affiliate commission.

When looking for the best travel accessories, you should aim to pack things that are both functional and cute.  Whether you want a solution to save space in your luggage, certain makeup or skin care products packaged so that you can throw them in your carry-on without worries, technology to help you get through a long flight, or a little something to make your trip as effortless as possible, travel accessories can be true game-changers – and we'll go as far as saying they can make or break a trip! The best travel accessories should be TSA-approved and of enough quality to last you multiple month-long vacations and plenty of weekend getaways. 

These days, there is also a must-have accessory that every responsible traveler should always carry: A face mask. Mask mandates are changing every day depending on your location and destination, which means face masks should still be your norm. The CDC is currently recommending the use of face masks indoors, even for fully vaccinated people, in places where transmission is high – and that includes airplanes. 

With that in mind, below, we have rounded up 29 travel accessories that will make your trip as simple as possible – from a pair of headphones to cancel out all the background noise to matching sets to reach your destination in style.

Best Beauty Travel Accessories

There's nothing worse than your makeup or skin care products spilling all over your carry-on. Avoid this problem by putting your travel-sized beauty essentials inside of this versatile makeup bag. With a thoughtfully designed inside, the bag contains a detachable place to store your brushes and a spill-proof bottom compartment, so your liquid items can have their own special home (away from your clothing).

Away The Cosmetics Bag

Set of In-Flight Essentials

Let's be real: Planes can make your skin feel super dry and tight. To combat that, bring with you one of these sheets or eye masks. Since the set is TSA-friendly, you can pack it in your carry-on for easy access.

Getaway Plan Kit

Compact Makeup Kit 

If you were to bring your entire makeup collection in your suitcase, it would weigh way too much. Simplify your makeup routine (and save money on the extra suitcase) and opt for this travel-friendly makeup kit. Arriving in a clear makeup bag, this set will help you achieve an entire face of makeup with only two products. The set comes with a cream eyeshadow, blush, contour, and highlight palette, and a 4-in-1 makeup brush, which is everything you need while away from home. Did I mention that you can customize the shades to your favorites? 

alleyoop beauty starter kit

Silk Eye Mask 

Planning to catch up on beauty sleep while en route? This eye mask might be your best friend. Made of high-quality silk, it'll feel extra soft on the eyes and block out unwanted sunshine.

Slip Silk Sleepmask

SPF is your BFF no matter your destination. With its clear formula, this one is easy to reapply even on the go so you can enjoy brilliant sun protection all throughout without any worries.

Supergoop! Glowscreen Sunscreen SPF 40 PA+++

Hand Sanitizer 

The pandemic is still very much a thing so it's imperative to keep your hands germ-free — especially in crowded places like an airport or airplane. Thanks to its hydrating formula, this sanitizer won't dry out your skin even if you use it too much. Another plus: it comes in a bunch of delicious scents.

Touchland Power Mist Hand Sanitizer Aloe Vera

Hand Cream 

Somehow, regardless of where we go when we travel, our hands seem to become dry. Avoid the problem altogether by bringing a handy dandy cream to keep your hands soft and smooth.

Glossier Hand Cream

Headphones .

To make sure your plane journey is as smooth as it can be, put on a pair of noise-canceling headphones. They'll block out all the noise and help you fall asleep to the music or movie of your choice. Aside from the noise-cancelation feature, Apple's AirPods Pro are also completely wireless and allow you to control the sound transparency so you can be aware of your surroundings if you want to. Plus, they are also great for taking phone calls while at the airport!

Portable Charger 

The worst thing to happen when traveling to a new place is your phone battery dying. Bringing a fully charged portable charger with you is a simple solution.

Polaroid Camera 

There's something nostalgic and exciting about capturing vacation moments on a Polaroid camera. The photos are truly in the moment with no room for editing, filters, or anything else. The best part? You can hang up all your photos as dorm room decor or in your apartment as mementos from your trip.

Are you ready to pop open a book (or two) at the beach or do you have a long flight ahead of you? Pack a Kindle. You'll have access to new reads and old favorites, and will be able to purchase another book even if you forget before packing (or finish your selection).

Neck Pillow 

If you plan to get some sleep on the flight, bring a neck pillow. It'll avoid the uncomfortable neck pain from any awkward positions. All in all, it's a must.

Carry-On Bag 

Heading on a quick little weekend getaway? Fit everything you need for the trip – and some more— in this carry-on duffle bag. It is lightweight, has not one but nine pockets, including one for your laptop  (in case it's a work trip). Not to mention, it has a little spot to tuck away your shoes, too!

Carry-On Suitcase

Similar to a carry-on bag, carry-on suitcases are great for avoiding baggage fees and bringing along on shorter trips.  If you're a light packer, this suitcase can easily fit enough outfits for a week with room to spare. Save yourself some coins and put this suitcase in the overhead bin on your upcoming trip.

Compression Socks

Do you get extremely puffy after a flight? If so, invest in a pair of compression socks. Slipping them on pre-flight will help increase circulation and reduce the risk of swelling from the journey.

Matching Set 

This luxuriously soft set from Bleu Salt is not only incredibly comfy but also looks chic. TBH, it's basically a set of elevated pajamas that you can wear in public.

Oversized Hoodie 

For some reason, airplanes are always freezing — even after you close the vents above. Keep yourself warm and toasty by wearing this oversized hoodie from Alo. Made from plush, cashmere-like material, it'll keep you warm — but not sweaty — and look super cute with any pair of sweats or leggings.

Wired bras are beyond uncomfortable. Nobody wants a piece of metal digging into you during your entire flight – so why not go for this butter-soft bralette instead? While providing just enough support, this bra feels like you aren't wearing one. The best of both worlds, no? 

Commando Butter Soft-Support Bralette

Sneakers (and other shoes) can be extremely uncomfortable if you're trying to doze off during your flight. These UGG slippers are great for the trek through security (just slip them off and throw them into the bin) and comfortable enough to wear while you sleep on the plane.

Travel Shoe Bag 

If you are into fashion, chances are your bag will be overweight. Take out a few pounds by throwing a pair (or two) of shoes in your carry-on. The only problem? Your shoes will get your entire carry-on dirty, so make sure to place them into these travel shoe bags.

India’s Modi to visit Moscow soon, Russian state media says

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Russia for the first time since the Kremlin’s invasion of Ukraine, in a trip that highlights the growing ties between the two countries despite New Delhi’s close relationship with Washington.

Preparations are being made for Modi’s visit to Moscow and dates will be announced soon, Kremlin spokesperson Yuri Ushakov said, according to Russia’s state-owned TASS news agency.

“I can confirm that we are preparing a visit by the Prime Minister of India,” he said, according to TASS. “I can’t say about the dates yet, because the dates are announced by the parties in agreement. But we are actively preparing. And this visit will happen.”

CNN has contacted India’s Ministry of External Affairs for comment.

The upcoming trip will be Modi’s first to the country since 2019 and comes less than a month after he was narrowly re-elected as prime minister during a weekslong vote.

Modi last met Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Uzbekistan in 2022, where he told the leader that today’s era is “not of war”. Putin also visited New Delhi just months before his unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.

India’s ties with Russia date back decades to the Cold War and have remained strong despite repeated sanctions on Moscow from Western governments.

New Delhi has repeatedly abstained from votes condemning Russia at the United Nations and has avoided public criticism of Moscow’s war in Ukraine.

India remains heavily reliant on the Kremlin for its military equipment – a vital link given India’s ongoing tensions at its shared Himalayan border with China – and has ramped up purchases of discounted Russian crude oil , giving Putin’s nation a major financial lifeline as it faces global isolation.

At the same time, India’s ties with the United States have grown stronger, amid shared concerns over China’s assertiveness in the Indo-Pacific region.

Modi met with US President Joe Biden during a state visit to Washington last June, in a trip further cementing their defense, trade and technology partnership. The Indian leader also addressed Congress during that trip, an honor typically reserved for close US allies and partners, and attended a lavish state dinner.

Later that year, Putin did not attend the Group of 20 leaders’ summit in New Delhi, during which leaders delivered a consensus statement criticizing his invasion of Ukraine.

India is a member of the Quad security grouping with the US, Japan and Australia and also has a seat at the table of two Moscow-friendly groupings, the SCO and the BRICS bloc, which includes Russia and China.
