The ‘absolute genius’ bag that stops you having to pay luggage fees for flights – and it's less than £20 | The Sun

A HAND luggage bag has been described as "absolute genius" after someone showed how it could be used to take everything you need for a holiday.

Most airlines charge passengers extra for the privilege of bringing more than just a small bag onto the plane, forcing people to come up with clever ways to pack their luggage.


One person who did that was a Tiktoker (@bucketlist) who shared her travel tip online.

In her video, she showed how she made the most of a certain type of bag, as well as crafty packing techniques.

She said: "I packed for five days in just this tiny bag.

"Using the army roll method, I packed pyjamas, two going out tops, two casual T shirts, a dress, jeans, cargoes…underwear and socks in a smaller bag."

The footage showed the holidaymaker squeezing each of her items into the space perfectly, making the most of every inch.

She continued listing what she fit in the bag: "Toiletries ready for the airport security, some slides, extension cord, adaptor and charging cables, jewellery box, toothbrush and edges brush.

"Silk head tie and eye mask, an extra pair of trainers and my passport."

"Don't forget your neck pillow. Safe travels."

The bag fits Ryanair small bag dimensions of 40x20x25 and comes with an adjustable shoulder strap and multiple pockets.

It claims to be made from more durable material than most other travel holdalls on the market, making it less likely to get damaged during holidays.

In their Amazon listing Cuqoo say: "Our bag is designed to be tough and long lasting so you wont need to keep buying a new bag every time you travel."

The main compartment in the middle is designed to hold the bulk of a passenger's essentials, while there's pockets for documents and other smaller items.

The bag has an overall rating of 4.7/5 on Amazon, with lots of people praising it.

One wrote: "Love this Ryanair carry on bag, it's strong, it's durable, it's lightweight, small yet roomy."

Another said: "The bag has perfect dimensions, is light and handy as well as very capacious."

A third added: "I really love this travel bag. I fitted extra clothes in it and it fitted under my aeroplane seat with ease."
