Holidaymakers rush to buy half price Antler cabin case 'perfect' for easyJet passengers
Shoppers have been praising the Antler case that "fits under seats" and "feels like top quality" The iconic British heritage brand Antler has been lauded by travel experts for striking "the sweet spot between affordable and aspirational," with their "lust-worthy" luggage that marries style with functionality. While Antler suitcases aren't exactly budget-friendly, the brand assures they're a long-term investment, featuring clever design, high-quality materials and a lifetime warranty. With the Antler Summer Sale now in full swing, savvy jet-setters can save up to 50% off on premium suitcases and cabin bags. One particularly impressive highlight of the sale is the Soft Stripe Underseat Cabin Case, that comes in a choice of black, blue, or green colourways. Originally priced at £130, this deceptively spacious case has been slashed to just £65. With dimensions of 45 x 35 x 20 cm, it's an ideal pick for travellers departing from UK airports being within the under-seat cabin bag allowances of major airlines, including budget favourites Ryanair and easyJet (although additional fees may be applicable). It's dimensions also allows passengers to dodge overhead storage charges with certain airlines. As always, passengers are advised to verify their baggage allowance prior to departure. The Soft Stripe Underseat Cabin Case is a sleek, compact solution for regular travellers. Crafted to slide effortlessly under most airline seats, it provides ample space for overnight essentials or brief weekend escapes, reports Derbyshire Live. As part of Antler's Soft Stripe range, the case is made from fully recycled, ultra-lightweight polyester. A standout feature is its double-layered front pocket, perfect for storing laptops and tablets, or keeping travel essentials within easy reach. Despite its slim profile, it boasts a robust structure that helps protect your belongings while on the move. It also features an adjustable four-stage handle, smooth-rolling inline wheels and a TSA-approved combination lock for added safety and security. For those needing extra space, the Soft Stripe Medium Case offers ample room without sacrificing style. Originally priced at £220, it's now up for grabs at just £132. While the Antler Underseat is a steal at £65, it might not meet everyone's travel requirements. Other highly-rated alternatives include the Samsonite Litebeam, currently on sale on Amazon with prices starting from £88.50 Another top choice is the Beis Mini Roller, a chic, compact cabin case lauded by savvy travellers. Although it retails at £193, many shoppers see it as a worthwhile investment, describing it as the "perfect size" and "surprisingly spacious." For a more budget-friendly option, the Nere Stori Cabin Case is a fabulous choice. Available in a range of striking colours, it has garnered an impressive 4.7 out of five-star rating from customers and is now available with up to 40% off selected styles. Customers who have snapped up the Soft Stripe Underseat are raving about it, giving it a stellar 4.8 out of five stars. One customer said: "After lugging heavy bags around with me for years, this under-seat case has been a game changer! Fits perfectly under seats (even budget airlines), looks great and has really helpful compartments. 10/10." Another added: " Beautifully made small under seat case which was perfect for my carry on luggage. Easy to pull around and the storage compartments are just perfect for everything I needed. So pleased that I bought this." A third shopper was particularly taken with the quality of the case, saying: "I tried an alternative brand recently, to use as an under-seat bag, but the adjustable handle broke after a single use. This bag is much better quality. As an added (unforeseen) bonus the adjustable handle is longer than on my previous case. I will no longer have to slightly stoop over when pulling it through the airport." One buyer described it as " perfect for under the seat on EasyJet and ideal for overnight stays," adding "should last a good number of years. Especially like the laptop compartment." While the majority of reviews are positively beaming, one traveller did highlight a small hiccup: "Well made and ideal for the cabin. Only one issue, when moving the zips around the corner of the bag, you sometimes have to manoeuvre carefully or it stops moving."

'Spacious' Ryanair cabin bag 'perfect for a weekend stay' reduced in Antler sale
The luggage retailer has launched a summer sale with 40 percent off selected styles. Luggage doesn't always come cheap, particularly if you're keen on a luxury brand like Antler. However, for holidaymakers looking to upgrade their collection, the brand has launched a massive summer sale with an impressive 40 percent off selected styles. For those planning city breaks or shorter trips this year, Antler has cut the price of this Ryanair and easyJet approved cabin bag that fits neatly under your seat. The easyJet and Ryanair measurement approved Chelsea Overnight Bag in Taupe was originally priced at £140, but has been reduced to £112 for a limited time only. Fans of the bag have praised its numerous compartments and robustness, with a 'sleek' and 'minimal' aesthetic that slides easily over the handle of your cabin bag. It's water-resistant, made from durable nylon, with dimensions 41.5 x 26 x 18cm, reports the Liverpool Echo. Alternatively, Amazon is offering this ECOHUB Easyjet 30L Cabin Bag for £18.99 in six different colours that shoppers describe as a 'great travel bag for all airlines'. On the Antler website, the full product description reads: "Designed to be the perfect piece of hand luggage, our overnight bag will sit neatly under the seat in front of you on a plane, and has a back sleeve to slot over a suitcase handle. "It doubles up as an ideal gym bag and comes with a detachable shoulder strap (you'll find this inside a pocket on arrival). Inside, there are plenty of slip pockets including one for a laptop. This holdall is finished with premium leather details." The discounted bag has earned an impressive 4.8 out of 5 rating from customer reviews, with one delighted buyer commenting: "A good size bag that neatly fitted under the seat on my recent plane trip. "Spacious inside, the lighter colour lining is a bonus to help see the contents; nothing worse than rummaging around a dark bag! Useful slot on the outside fitted over my suitcase and made navigating around the airport a breeze. "Recommend this bag, don't hesitate to buy if you've got your eye on it!" Beauty deal of the week YSL Black Opium remains an iconic perfume - and we know where to bag the newest edition for its cheapest price. The YSL BLack Opium Le Parfum offers a more vanilla-heavy fragrance that has been hailed as "intoxicating" in reviews, with a 50ml now half-price at Boots after being dropped from £115 to £57.50. Massive saving aside, it's the cheapest it can be bought for at the moment, as rival retailers Superdrug, Lookfantastic and The Perfume Shop still stock it at full-price. This interpretation of the iconic perfume was only launched in 2022, with its original floral gourmand fragrance still offering its famed notes that include pear accord, green mandarin, orange flower petals, jasmine sambac and cinnamon. However, the iconic coffee accord has been twisted with four different, yet still complimentary, notes of vanilla, which is said to be its most important ingredient, to create an "unexpected smoothness, with uncompromising intensity." Meanwhile, the unique glossy bottle that has been crafted from a precious black stone, with its dazzling glitter emblem at the heart, eludes to the luxuriousness of the fragrance contained within. As for the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Boots shoppers wanting to take advantage of the half-price discount will be glad to hear it has amassed a 4.7 rating from thousands of customers who say it "lasts all day" and "literally turns heads" when it is worn. One five-star review read: "I love the fragrance. I used a lot the first time, not realising how intense it was. It lasts all day and continues to smell great. I literally turn heads when I wear it." Don't miss Boots' half-price discount on the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum (50ml) that is now £57.50, down from £115. Another review stated: "Absolutely love this bag. It's sleek, minimal and feels really well made. Fits more than I expected, perfect for a short trip or even a gym session. The handles are comfortable and it keeps its shape well even when full. One of the best travel bags I've owned. Looks premium too." A third customer remarked: "Great travel bag. Perfect for hand luggage or an overnight/weekend stay. Great casing and plenty of space inside without it being too big. Great colour, very sleek and smart." However, some reviews pointed out that the bag was 'smaller than they would've liked', so it's crucial to pay attention to the product dimensions. One customer expressed their thoughts saying: "Love it but wanted the weekender - but not available in taupe for some reason. Smaller than would have liked but still great." If this cabin bag appeals to you, it's available for purchase at £112. For those who prefer a more robust luggage option, the Stamford 2.0 cabin in midnight black, originally priced at £210, is now on offer for £168 in the sale. This case boasts Japanese wheels for a 'whisper-quiet' glide and measures 54.1 x 40.2 x 20 cm.

Deals start with a Two-Piece Packing Cube Set reduced from £30 to £24, offering a small and medium packing cube in a choice of colours. Spacious enough to keep essentials organised on the go, this low cost set would work well with under-seat-size luggage. For travellers who want to pack that little bit more, the Four-Piece Packing Cube Set starts from £35, reduced from £50. A true travel saviour, each set comprises one large cube measuring 24.5 x 33 x 10cm, one medium cube measuring 33 x 17.5 x 10cm and two small cubes measuring 17.5 x 16.5 x 10cm. The largest Six-Piece Packing Cube Set has also seen prices slashed in selected colours - was £75, now £60.

Travellers can also use the compression cubes with almost any suitcase, backpack or cabin bag. The cubes come with double compression zippers that help to squish the bags down to make them lie flat. Made with a mesh panel on the top, it's easy to see what's in each cube without having to unzip them. According to Antler, these ingenious cubes are "the perfect way to organise your suitcase. Use them to separate your tops from your socks, and there's no need to unpack - simply lift them straight out of your suitcase on arrival." Should the Antler cubes not fit the bill, there are plenty more to choose from. Over at Nere, a 5 Pack Packing Cube Set is now reduced to £23. The pack comes in a selection of colours and sizes and buyers have called them "great quality." Amazon shoppers can also save on a three-pack of Gomatic Packing Cubes, that feature a zippered compression system to condense clothing. Available for £75.99 they are effective, but also more expensive than the Antler version. For buyers on a budget, Argos is selling a Home Packing Cubes Set Of 4 for just £12. Practical enough to help keep clothes organised on the go, shoppers have given them a 4.5 out of five-star rating. Holidaymakers seem to be impressed with the Antler Packing Cubes, giving the best-selling Four-Piece Set an impressive 4.9 out of five-star rating across 960 reviews on the website. One buyer said, " Game changer. These packing cubes are spacious and so useful. The compression zips make these stand out from cheaper versions, fitting more into each cube. I love these and now have two sets." Another added: " Lifesaver! Packing for a two-month trip with various climates—these cubes have been a lifesaver! They've allowed me to keep my luggage to a minimum and made space in the suitcases for souvenirs." A third buyer was equally as delighted, adding: "Really pleased with the packing cases, plenty of room with a top you can see what you've packed. As usual with Antler, they are great quality. Highly recommend them." While nearly all reviews have praised the upscale travel accessories, one buyer noted that they were a "good quality product" but "a lot smaller than expected." Overall, buyers seem to have found the best way to maximise their packing power. Another five-star review summed it up, saying: "I can't tell you how these have revolutionised my packing. Getting to the other end and being able to find anything and everything without having to unpack the whole case is a game-changer. I would absolutely recommend these to anyone who is looking for ease of packing and finding another 50% capacity in what they can pack."

‘These packing cubes save me so much suitcase space on holiday and are so hardwearing'
As a travel editor, I've packed suitcases more times than I can count. I recently upgraded my packing cubes to this excellent ones, and they've made a huge difference to how I pack For savvy travellers, packing cubes are a must – they're a neat and condensed way of organising your clothes, can be lifted out of the suitcase and popped straight into your hotel room wardrobe, and can save you precious case space (and even money too, on excess baggage fees). As a travel editor, I've used packing cubes in the past – this popular £10 Amazon set – but, although a great price, I found these ones to be very flimsy, and the zips quickly broke on a number of them. However, ahead of a recently long weekend to Spain, I upgraded to these travel editor-approved Briggs & Riley ones – and they made such a big difference. I'd already heard great things about the Briggs & Riley Packing Cube Sets following on from another trip I took recently with other travel editors; every one of them were either wheeling Briggs & Riley suitcases or had the packing cubes inside, and everyone praised how good they were. When mine arrived, I could immediately tell they were far superior quality to the ones I'd previously used. Available in three colours, the zips are sturdy, the cubes all fit neatly into the largest one, and the expansion and compression design feature is genius; open it up wide, fill it up with your clothes, then zip it up smaller and tighter to maximise suitcase space. They're also made from antibacterial treated fabric for odour prevention, and have a useful handle on the size for quick and easy lifting out of cases; they almost look like mini suitcases themselves. On this particular trip I used the Check-In Packing Cube Set, £99, as I was checking in a medium-sized suitcase, and they fit really well; they'd fit even better in a 'full-size' case. My partner, who was taking a cabin bag, used the Carry-On Packing Cube Set, £79, which were also very spacious; these would still be an excellent option if you wanted to spend a little less. Because the downside of these is that they're certainly not the cheapest packing cubes on the market. However if you're a regular traveller, I honestly think they'll last you a lifetime, and seriously improve your holiday packing. I won't be without them now. If you're after a slightly cheaper option but something that's more robust that the bargain Amazon options, I've also heard great things about the Antler Set of 4 Packing Cubes, £50, available in eight stylish colours, while Next's £16 Set of 3 Luggage Packing Cubes are a cute and colourful option.

Thankfully, Antler is currently holding a huge summer sale that is seeing a vast variety of holiday essentials getting massive discounts.

Normally retailing for £130, shoppers can now grab it for only £65, along with free shipping. With dimensions of 45x35x20cm, this soft stripe case meets the cabin case requirements for a variety of major airlines, such as Ryanair, TUI, easyJet and Jet2.

Available in black, green and indigo, this case is said to be the compact companion of frequent travellers. Offering a surprisingly spacious interior with a double-layered front pocket for added convenience, travellers will be able to bring all of their essentials with ease. Soft Stripe Underseat Cabin Case £130 £65 Antler Buy Now Product Description Crafted from fully-recycled, ultra-lightweight polyester, this case is said to provide superior strength and durability so you will have peace of mind that your belongings are fully protected and secure while on the go.

Alternatively, Argos has reduced the price of the American Tourister Zakk Blue 4 Wheel Hard Cabin Case. Normally retailing for £70, shoppers can now grab it for £46 in the sale. And for those who are wanting a small bag for underseat and a cabin bag, Amazon is selling the COOLIFE combo deal for £69.99. Meeting Ryanair's luggage requirements, this set is available in six colours, including white, yellow, green and navy. Back to the Antler Cabin Case, shoppers have awarded it an impressive 4.8 stars, with none of the 97 reviews going lower than four stars. One happy shopper said: "Lovely colour and perfect size. Opens up to hold plenty in the base and then extra storage in the flap. Once again excellent service arrived within 48 hours of ordering." With another five-star reviewer adding: "Great size, can fit more in than expected. Overall, very pleased with the case." However, one shopper had a little worry, explaining: "My only slight concern is the zip, which can be a bit tricky on the corner of the case. I'm hoping this will improve with use." Fashion deal of the week New Balance has just launched a massive sale ahead of the summer, with up to half-price off. For those who don't want their feet to get sore during the day, the Women's 327 Shoes have earned a glowing reputation from thousands of shoppers, with praise suggesting they are "like walking on clouds."

Walked around London for 2 days & I felt like I was walking on clouds!" A second positive review read: "Walking on Air! They are the most comfortable shoe I've ever had.

It should also be noted that this cabin bag doesn't meet the small 'underseat' requirements for major airlines including Ryanair, Jet2 and TUI.

Despite this, a top reviewer wrote: "Very pleased with this little suitcase. Perfect size for under the seat on easyJet and ideal for overnight stays. Should last a good number of years. Especially like the laptop compartment." With a fifth customer adding: "Beautifully made small underseat case which was perfect for my carry on luggage.
