Shoppers praise 'excellent' Ryanair cabin bag perfect for short breaks
A cabin bag with numerous pockets can help keep items well organised while travelling. Having everything from passports to snacks in the right place can prevent frantic searches at the airport.
Amazon customers have discovered a compact backpack that features quick-access compartments. The VANKEV Backpack is an ideal travel companion, measuring 40x20x25cm, it complies with Ryanair's stringent free under-seat baggage rules.
With a generous 20L capacity, it fits comfortably in overhead compartments or under the seat. Available in a range of colours, the stylish black backpack is currently available for a bargain of just €33.43.
Designed with organised travellers in mind, the bag boasts a suitcase-style main compartment and a padded section for laptops up to 14 inches. A variety of additional pockets - including a waterproof pocket, mesh pocket, hidden pocket, side pocket and a quick-access front pocket - also help to keep everything within easy reach.
Constructed with high-quality, anti-scratch polyester and sturdy metal zippers, the backpack features ergonomic S-curved shoulder straps with breathable mesh and a multi-layer sponge-padded back panel for extra support. Dual carry handles (top and side) offer flexible carrying options, while the TSA-compliant design unfolds 90–180 degrees for hassle-free airport security checks, reports Bristol Live.
The VANKEV backpack is a traveller's dream with its built-in luggage strap that easily attaches to rolling suitcase handles and a secret anti-theft pocket for securing valuables. It even boasts a chest strap for better weight distribution, ensuring your shoulders don't bear the brunt when it's packed to the hilt.
For those after an alternative cabin bag style, Amazon's €11.93 Narwey Cabin Bag has become a sensation for its compact size and wallet-friendly price. With a whopping 14,000 reviews, customers rave about its surprisingly roomy interior, likening it to "a Tardis."
Cabin Max's Blue Metz 20L Underseat Bag is another trendy option for savvy travellers, retailing at €35.83 in Next and available in various hues. It's earned a stellar 4.7 out of 5-star rating from fashion-forward flyers.
Amazon customers who've already bagged the VANKEV backpack are singing its praises, awarding it a 4.5 out of 5-star rating. A satisfied customer said: "Brilliant for underseat. I packed loads into here for a 4 night trip and still didn't wear everything. Lots of compartments, can pack nice and tight and small."
Another happy buyer commented: "As described, beautiful colour, great design, very good quality and multi function pockets. Love the different ways to carry it. Very comfortable too. Highly recommend."
One chuffed customer raved: "Excellent cabin bag. Perfect for a short break or even a week in the sun plenty of pockets."
However, not all feedback was glowing, with one buyer voicing their dissatisfaction about the build quality: "The bag seemed promising but fell short in quality. The material feels flimsy, and the zippers don't glide smoothly, making me worry about its durability. While it fits under the seat and accommodates my 15.6-inch laptop, the lack of padding is concerning for protecting electronics."
On the whole, shoppers appear to be quite taken with this nifty backpack from Amazon. A gleaming five-star review captured the sentiment: "Best small rucksack I have ever bought! It's the perfect size and has lots of pockets to store stuff separately in. I was a bit worried about the colour and the material being more plastic and cheap-looking, but it looks really stylish. It's very light when it's on your back. It easily fits under the seat in front on the plane."
