The Ultimate Guide to Travel Engagement Rings

​

 

Can I travel with a temporary engagement ring safely?

​

Yes, temporary engagement rings are ideal for travelling. Our moissanite engagement rings are much cheaper than a diamond engagement ring, and therefore carry far less risk when traveling. Our rings also come in a slim ringbox which makes them easier to pack discreetly. Keeping the engagement ring safe while travelling is all about preparation and awareness. Never leave it to chance—treat it like a passport or wallet.

​

How to Keep the Ring Safe:

• Use a travel pouch or slim ring box – Designed to stay hidden and secure.

• Store in your hand luggage – Don’t risk losing it in checked bags.

• Use hotel safes wisely – Only us it if you're sure it’s reliable and discreet, a travel engagement ring may not require a safe.

• Don’t mention it to anyone – The fewer people who know, the lower the risk.

​

How do I travel with an engagement ring without my partner noticing?

​

Travelling with an engagement ring discreetly is all about smart packing and subtle planning. Use an unbranded, compact container and keep the ring in your hand luggage to stay in control throughout the journey.

​

Tips for Hiding the Ring:

• Slim ring box – Traditional ring boxes are bulky and draw attention. Use a slim travel ring box or pouch instead. Our rings come with both options.

• Pack it in your carry-on – Never check the ring in hold luggage, just in case it goes missing. Keep it as close and secure as possible

• Hide it in plain sight – Consider tucking the ring into a toiletry bag, sock, or sunglasses case.

• Avoid metal detectors – If flying, place the ring where you won’t need to remove it for security checks. If you do need to remove it, make sure it's hidden in plain sight, like in your wallet.
