It’s easy to combine the love of travel and Halloween. Visiting a seasonal haunted house or staying overnight at a haunted hotel are popular options. Amusement parks also get in the spooky spirit: Disneyland and LEGOLAND keep it family friendly while Cedar Point keeps the scare factor high.

If you don’t plan on traveling for Halloween, how about a travel themed Halloween costume? With a little brainstorming, there are many ways to include a side of travel in your Halloween costumes!

Transportation Costumes

There are the transportation ideas like an airport costume theme? From airplanes and pilots to tourists and flight attendants, there are plenty of costume choices to represent air travel. Let’s not forget about other transportation methods: boat captains, cruise directors, cab drivers, train conductors or even a road trip

Destination Costumes

You could also personify your favorite travel destination or a place on your bucket list.

Australia – koala, kangaroo

Hawaii – hula girl

Wild West – cowboy

Scotland – Highland lass

England – king or queen

Alaska – Eskimo

Egypt – pharaoh

Besides the more obvious costume ideas, you could think outside the box and create a unique travel costume. How about the Eiffel Tower to represent Paris or the Statue of Liberty for New York City? Many families travel for sporting adventures like skiing, surfing or snorkeling.  If you are a sports enthusiast, then you likely have most of a costume in your closet already. For more inspiration follow my travel costume board on Pinterest.

    I LOVE this post! What a fun idea for themed costumes. I was a hot air balloon once when I was younger – that’s travel related, right?
