Whether it's a romantic getaway, or a work trip, the Cabin Bag will hold everything you need for a short trip away.
The under-seat bag is 40 X 20 X 25, meaning that it's the exact maximum size Ryanair allows for cabin bags.

Advice for flying with Ryanair
All Ryanair passengers can bring a small personal bag on board but this must fit under the seat in front of you, but it must be no bigger than 40cm x 20cm x 25cm
Any over-sized cabin bags will be refused at the boarding gate and put in the hold for a fee
Ryanair also charges passengers up to £55 check-in at the airport
Anyone who loses their card at the airport will have to pay a £20 reissue fee
Book to sit in the front five rows if you want to head off the plane first
Extra legroom seats can be found in rows 1 A, B, C or 2 D, E, F as well as row 16 and 17 near the emergency exit
The worst seat on Ryanair's Boeing 737-800 aircraft is also 11A because of its lack of window.
"The expansion facility with the base zip is particularly clever."
A third person said: "Very good quality for the price and would 100% recommend as hand luggage.
"I expected it to be smaller, bearing in mind the price, but it was actually a great size!"
Airlines have strict restrictions on what you can take on board flights, with customers only able to take a small bag on for free.
Passengers have to pay for any larger bags they wish to take on board.

Fresh ageism row for the BBC after four axed senior journalists lodge discrimination claims
FOUR senior journalists have lodged complaints with the BBC in a fresh ageism row. Their separate — but coordinated — discrimination claims come as the broadcaster merges its home and foreign newsdesks. 2 Bosses hope slashing 130 jobs will help save £700million. But the four, said to have worked in warzones and the aftermath of terror attacks, fear they have been earmarked for compulsory redundancy. Their move follows a group of BBC News presenters going to an employment tribunal over ageism allegations. Martine Croxall, Karin Giannone, Kasia Madera, and Annita McVeigh settled their three-year dispute in March, with the terms not disclosed. The latest cases involve employees aged over 50 and thought to have more than 100 years of experience between them. Sources said they believe the process of applying for the new jobs concentrates only on their work over the past two years — and so is weighted towards younger candidates. Marks were also said to be deducted if applicants failed to mention keywords such as 'digital' or 'live page'. It is reported one of the individuals is a representative of the National Union of Journalists, which has hit out at the compulsory redundancies. Last night, the BBC said: 'Restructuring in BBC News is taking place according to established BBC policies. 'We conduct all processes in a thorough and fair manner, and we are committed to supporting our staff throughout, including through comprehensive redeployment assistance.' 2

Mail Sport Extreme: Logan ready to do it for Doddie - again - as former Scotland wing gets set to embark on cycle around Ireland
When the British and Irish Lions begin their first warm-up match against Argentina in Dublin on Friday week, it's Doddie Weir who will be in the immediate thoughts of everyone involved. The lock, who passed away in November 2022 after a battle with motor neurone disease, is often remembered for his big smile, warming character and, now of course, for the work done by the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation in fundraising to help find a cure for MND. Next week, Weir's former Scotland team-mate Kenny Logan, son Hamish, and a number of other names from the world of sport, including Ally McCoist, Will Green and broadcaster Gabby Logan, are taking on the challenge of cycling around Ireland, stopping off at some of the country's most famous Lions' origins clubs, and delivering the match ball to the Aviva Stadium as the Lions face the Pumas for the 1888 Cup. Cycling around 100 miles a day is a challenge that Logan and Co are not taking lightly, however he admits that Weir himself would expect more. He says: 'I can hear Doddie now joking: 'Only 100 miles a day? Why not 200?' I think he'd be proud, but not as proud as we are of him for turning his diagnosis into a lifeline for other people. He never did this for himself. 'We keep pushing because of everything he did for the MND community. We're working towards that day when someone turns around and says: 'We've done it, there's a cure for MND.' That's when we'll celebrate.' This is not the first time that Logan has taken on an endurance challenge to raise funds in the fight against MND. In 2023, he was part of a group of fundraisers in a cycling and walking challenge from Edinburgh to Paris ahead of the World Cup launch. Though this time around it is fully on the bike, the 53-year-old can't wait to get started. 'One minute I'm buzzing, the next I'm nervous,' he admits. 'I think everyone's a bit nervous from all the chat in the WhatsApp group about wind, rain and hills! But the nerves and tension are good - it sharpens you. We just need to keep reminding ourselves why we're doing this. '(The) My Name'5 Doddie Foundation is one of the charity partners for the British and Irish Lions and we're raising money for the Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association (IMNDA) as well as MNDF. 'Doddie was a proud British and Irish Lion so this ride is our tribute: to him, what he stood for and everything he achieved. 'We'll be delivering the match ball at the 1888 Cup in Dublin for the British & Irish Lions vs Argentina which will be a special moment for all of us. It brings everything full circle. 'It's simple: the more we raise, the quicker we can get to a cure. Every pound counts towards vital research. MND shouldn't be an incurable disease, it's an underfunded one and we're here to support My Name'5 Doddie Foundation to help change that for all the people that have - and will get - MND.' Thoughts inevitably turn to the previous challenge and Weir. Passing through the rugby heartlands of Ireland, it's likely that Logan and his fellow cyclists will face all sorts of emotional stories and moments en route to completing this challenge, though none might compare to one from the previous trip. 'In 2023, we walked and cycled - and that combination nearly broke me. This time it's full-on cycling, we'll be covering 100 miles a day,' adds Logan. 'Hopefully minus the snow, but with Irish weather - even in June - you never know! The forecast looks quite good, but it could all change as we know too well. 'We came down a hill in France, above the clouds, and this yellow and blue balloon just appeared out of nowhere. I thought someone had arranged it - they hadn't. It was one of those moments where you felt like Doddie was with us. 'It's about hardship, yes, but more than that it's about the people. We started as strangers, but by the end we were team-mates. That's what the Lions are all about - and it's what Doddie was all about too.' In the here and now, Logan feels it is 'no question' that Finn Russell starts at No10 for the Lions. Though Zander Fagerson has been ruled out through injury, the former wing suggests there could have been room for one or two more Scots on Tour than the initial eight selected. He says: 'Absolutely brilliant (to have eight Scots selected). We're unlucky to not have 10 players, the likes of Jamie Ritchie and Darcy Graham, but I'm pleased for the rest of the boys. They've earned their place to play with some of the best players in the UK. I can't wait to cheer them on.'

FTSE 100 closes at record high as Trump's tariffs shake faith in US
Britain's main stock market index closed at an all-time high on Thursday as investors seeking refuge from America's market slump turned towards the UK. The FTSE 100 index of London's largest companies ended 0.2pc higher on Thursday at 8,834.92 points amid a backlash against Donald Trump's economic policies, which investors fear will hinder American companies' profits. The flagship British index, which had performed poorly in recent years compared with the US, is up by 8.7pc since the start of the year, beating America's S&P 500's which has risen by 2.7pc. Neil Wilson, of Saxo Bank said: 'We have clearly seen a rotation in global equity markets as investors have for the first time in years questioned the 'Tinata' – there is no alternative to America.' He said clients were talking about 'reducing exposure to the US'. The FTSE 100's record high came as the value of the dollar plunged to a three-year low after President Trump sparked fresh fears about global trade. The US currency sank on Thursday to its lowest level since March 2022 against a group of major peers, leaving it down by nearly 10pc so far this year. Investors have turned away from the dollar after the US president said he would send out letters to countries outlining the terms of trade deals. That sent the pound to a three-year high above $1.36 and pushed the euro to close at $1.16, its highest level since 2021, as the president's comments renewed concerns that US tariffs could hit global growth. 'I love China' In a further sign of his mixed signals on trade, President Trump sought to calm nerves by talking up the prospects of a US-China trade agreement, following two days of talks between Washington and Beijing officials in London this week. He wrote on his Truth Social platform: 'THE CHINA DEAL IS GREAT!' He later told reporters: 'I love China. We just made a deal, and I respect President Xi a lot, and we made a deal that's good for both countries. The deal we made with China good for both countries. Going to be a lot of money made, and it's going to ultimately open up China, which is the ultimate thing.' Charu Chanana, of Saxo Bank, said: 'Markets may have no choice but to respond to Trump's tariff threat – even if it's just posturing to bring others to the table.' The dollar was also hit by a flurry of data, which suggested the global economy was beginning to show signs of strain. Britain's goods exports to the US plunged at a record pace after President Trump launched his tariff onslaught in April, official figures showed. UK exports to the United States fell by £2bn compared with the previous month, according to the Office for National Statistics, which was the largest drop since official records began in 1997. The value of goods exports to the United States during the month – totalling £4.1bn – fell to its lowest level since February 2022. The US president hit Britain with 10pc tariffs under plans announced on April 2, a date which Mr Trump had long touted as his so-called 'liberation day'. Businesses dramatically changed their investment plans in response, bringing forward orders in an effort to get ahead of higher import taxes before they were announced. Official figures showed UK manufacturing output fell by 0.9pc in April, a further drop from 0.8pc in March but a sharp reversal from a 2.4pc surge in February. This was despite the high-profile announcement by Sir Keir Starmer of a trade agreement with the US last month, which is yet to be finalised. Robert Wood, an economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said: 'Exports should begin to stabilise in May now that the front-running has unwound and after President Trump began walking back some of his more ruinous tariffs. 'That said, the UK-US trade deal 'agreed' in May is yet to fully come into force so there could be further export weakness still ahead.' In a further sign of strain in the US, wholesale inflation ticked higher last month. The producer price index – which measures inflation before goods hit consumers – rose by 2.6pc in May, according to the Labor Department. This was up from 2.4pc in April but in line with expectations. Separate data showed US filings for jobless benefits were unchanged last week.
