Personal carry on bags
Discussion
k em' threshold. I bought one of these. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CP27XRCR. -- was about £16
More than sturdy enough. Easily squashed into Vueling's measuring crate.
I had intended to throw it when I got back, but I quite like it

Indeed. I've got a couple of cheapo 'Cabin Max' branded bags from Amazons and they aren't the best quality, are just rectangular shaped to get the most stuff inside rather than being nicely styled but perfect for a few flights a year.Puggit said:
O/T This is a good general guide but I always use a 40 litre hiking backpack for the freebie carry on with Easyjet, Ryanair etc no problem.It's just about getting something the most efficient shape to fit their silly little bag checker, which most bags aren't.
I bought one for £9.99 for my first ever RyanAir trip to Vigo last Christmas.
When it turned up I thought there's no way this 'hand bag' would suffice for a cold rainy week, but it did, and was useful as a backpack for day trips around the city and venturing further out.
It taught me the art of packing light which was blooming useful when I drove my Alpine to Tenerife last February

1. If it's just for flying, do you have a Decathlon nearby?
2. And if you have self control, nothing to stop you getting a slightly over-sized bag provided it's squidgy in the over-sized dimentions and you don't then pack it to the rafters.
3. And as for RyanAir changing their size, they are - but over the next 12 months. Advice is to plan on the old dimensions this year as it's better to get to the gate and find you could have used a bigger bag than get there and find your new-size bag doesn't fit the old-sized gauge for your flight.

We bought ours on Amazon UK though they are not on there right now.
We've not only flown Ryainair and Easyjet several times, but both took them round India and Thailand over 3 months. I carried a 7Kg Ganesha bronze in mine for 2 months, dont ask!
They are still going strong and have been faultless. Great front pockets and zip sections for passports , docs, keys etc, and although the trolley handle seems laughable, they are actually very usable and a great relief on long transfers. You get speed wobble if you walk too fast :-)
I could not recommend them more highly. They have rucksack straps zipped away too though we don't use them. We added straps on the back so they slide onto the trolley handle when we travel with an overhead bag too.
