New service offers direct-to-hotel toiletries

My recent work focusing on Latino voters in Arizona has shown me how crucial independent journalism is in giving voice to underrepresented communities.
Your support is what allows us to tell these stories, bringing attention to the issues that are often overlooked. Without your contributions, these voices might not be heard.

Packing a washbag may soon be a thing of the past, thanks to a new US website that delivers hotel toiletries before arrival.
Suite Arrival, founded by frequent fliers, will ship a prepacked toiletry box for men or women to any hotel in the US, so that it's waiting for guests when they arrive. Customers can choose from a selection of travel-size bottles of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, deodorant, toothpaste, mouthwash, shaving cream, hairspray and moisturizers, from a variety of brands.
Packs are available in different sizes (Overnight/Long Weekend/A Week Away or "Road Warrior") and for different genders. Customers can select products from Gillette, Garnier, Head & Shoulders, Colgate, Pantene and TRESemme amongst other brands. Prices start at $14.99 (€11) and the product can currently be delivered to any mainland US hotel. The company confirmed to Relaxnews that it plans to expand to international destinations possibly as early as April. France and the UK are likely to be the initial European markets.
Suite Arrival's idea is a tweak of 3floz.com, a retailer that specializes in travel-ready beauty products for travelers. Suite Arrival's advantage is that it removes liquids from the luggage altogether - an idea likely to prove popular for travelers facing ever-increasing restrictions in airports.
