Collins’ final two pieces of advice are to choose a suitcase with a lock for security and either to mark your suitcase by tying a ribbon around the candle, or steering clear of black suitcases. Horizn Studios recognises the tension between wanting to live as sustainably as possible while also wanting to travel. They’re also handy for storing your laptop or bits and bobs like skincare essentials, so they’re great for overnight travel.

Whether you’re flying with British Airways, Ryanair or Emirates, we have got a cabin bag suitable for you! IDEAL STORAGE SPACE: Transporting as many necessities as possible with as little inconvenience as possible is the name of the game for any flight. With a height-adjustable retractable handle there's no need to strain your back; and you can even place small bags and essentials on top. Firstly, I absolutely love the mineral blue colourway of this Antler Expandable suitcase, which has earned plenty of compliments from jealous friends and family.With our stylish and spacious collection of lightweight cabin luggage and cabin friendly backpacks, you’ll be ready to go when you jet off. The interior felt huge, but bear in mind you can only pack on one side; the opening is only a flap, compared to the clamshell designs of others. To adhere to the 100ml rule as effectively as possible, consider purchasing dedicated toiletry bags for your liquids. This suitcase is exactly 56x45x25cm to allow you to pack the maximum possible allowance for two of the UK's most popular airlines - easyJet and British Airways. When carried using the side handle, the backpack straps slip neatly into their designated pocket, and the clamshell opening, which reveals two roomy, mesh-covered compartments, makes accessing the contents a breeze.

By June 2024, the UK plans to abolish this rule, with London City, Teeside International, and Jersey airports already allowing up to 2-litre containers. My backpack measures approximately 40x30x30 - so is outside KLM's limits in one dimension but well within limits in the other two.If you don’t mind shelling out a little extra for the smart version, you also get a removable charger, in-built compression and a laundry bag. The spinner wheels roll incredibly smoothly, thanks partly to their double-wheel design, and the presence of additional handles on both the bottom and side made it easy to remove from a particularly full overhead luggage bin.

It was virtually empty so I was confident that it would fit under the seat, even if it were full there would have been of clearance under the seat. Due to limited overhead locker space, passengers with a Light fare might be required to check in their larger hand baggage (55x35x25) at no extra cost. If you’re looking for a carry on suitcase that will be accepted by most airlines, you’ll most likely be safe with 56 cm x 36 cm x 23 cm. A WEIGHT OFF YOUR MIND: At Aerolite, we understand that when it comes to luggage; every gram counts!As you might expect from the quality of the thing, it’s on the heavier side for a cabin sized bag at 4. But watch out for foods that have a very strong smell, this is not always so nice for the other passengers. This cabin case’s USP is its extendable sidewalls, which can be raised (and then compressed) to provide 22 per cent more space. Horizn Studios uses cruelty-free materials, recycled packaging and creates durable products intended to be repaired rather than replaced. The front pocket is useful with a padded pocket for a laptop and additional space for other packing - perhaps an iPad or Kindle which would also need pulling out at security.

We hope we have helped you and have resolved some of the doubts that usually arise when we have to travel about what we can and cannot get into the cabin of the plane. However, as many international airports haven’t yet upgraded to the necessary technology, the 100ml rule will also remain vital for future travel outside the UK. For example, you can’t bring liquids more than 100ml, electronic cigarettes, too many lithium batteries, weapons, chemical substances and so on.Even if the suitcase material gets damaged, the core, your belongings, will remain soft and will survive the journey undamaged.
