Ryanair bag that lets you avoid hand luggage fees is cheaper in Prime Day sale
ONE of the most popular hand luggage bags is currently on offer in the Amazon Prime Day sales for less than £13.
Budget airlines make a lot of money by charging people for extra cabin bags and checked luggage.
Which is why bags like the Narwey underseat foldable travel duffel bag are so popular with holidaymakers.
The bag fits exactly within Ryanair and other budget airlines’ hand luggage requirements and can fit plenty of luggage in as well.
That means travellers can fill it up, safe in the knowledge that it will fit under the seat in front of them, and that they won’t be charged any extra when boarding the flight.
The bag is usually £15.99 on Amazon, but for today and tomorrow only, it has 21 per cent off, making it just £12.63.
What’s more, the bag’s design has been improved recently, with a new extra thick lining making it more durable and preventing it from ripping or tearing during holidays.
It also comes with an extra padded shoulder strap, making it easier and more comfortable for travellers to carry when going on their holiday.
The bag is made of water resistant fabric, so items inside won’t get wet if it’s carried through wet weather.
It also comes with a sleeve on the back, so it can slide over the handle of any wheelie suitcase, for extra versatility, should it be used as a second bag.
It also comes in a variety of different colours, including black, dark purple, mint green and navy blue among others.
It promises to “hold all your travel items”, as well as claiming to be “ideal for overnight, weekends, sports, gym use, camping and picnics”.
The bag has an overall score of 4.3/5 on Amazon, with hundreds of people giving it the full five stars.
One wrote: “Flew with Ryanair, managed to pack clothes for 5 nights, both night and day outfits, mostly dresses, two pairs of sandals and other bits and bobs.
“Perfect amount of space. Excellent value for money.”
Another verified purchase said: “Lovely bag, perfect size for a weekend trip and fits in stacks of stuff!
