Tugo is a cup holder designed especially for travelers. Tugo mounts on the handles of [carry-on luggage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qantas-x-july) to keep your beverage close by and your hands free. The Tugo definitely falls into my "Why didn't I think of that?" category; whenever I'm in an airport, I find that I never seem to have enough [free hands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pinch-hold).
