Shoppers are racing to nab new £25 Primark travel bag – there’s two colours & it’s perfect for EasyJet
BARGAIN hunters are racing to their nearest Primark store, desperate to get their hands on one of the most affordable travel bags yet.
So if you’re lucky enough to be jetting abroad any time soon, then you’ve come to the right place.
And particularly if you don’t want to fork out for a pricey hold bag, we’ve found just the thing.
Thanks to these new and affordable bags, you’ll be able to fit in everything you need for your next trip.
And you won’t have to worry about getting a tape measure out, as these foldaway bags are perfect as a large cabin bag for Ryanair flights.
Primark’s 8-Wheel Hard Shell Underseat Suitcase is the perfect solution for travellers eager to avoid eye-watering baggage fees.
It features an underseat hard shell suitcase with eight wheels, zip-up sections and telescopic handle.
“A top carry handle provides added convenience, and the removable wheels offer a clever touch for storage or travel flexibility,” the description reads.
“Ideal for short trips or as a handy carry-on companion.”
Chelsea Dickinson – known as the cheap holiday expert – swears by the bargain find.
She said: “It’s Ryanair size but with removable wheels?!
“Yes, it’s coming home with me!”
Elsewhere, travellers are swearing by a £10 bag that is a “life-saver” when only flying with hand luggage.
The Narwey Duffel bag can easily be placed under seats, meaning there is no need to pay for extra baggage.
The bag is waterproof, meaning it will keep all your items dry and also has several internal pockets, to keep everything well organised.
The sturdy straps also promise to handle more than 45lbs (20kg), meaning it can comfortably carry even the heaviest of hand luggage.
Holiday packing tips
Jemma Solomon, aka The Label Lady has got 5 packing tips to help you get organised for your next holiday.
1. Write a list
Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase.
Or for complete ease, try Google’s AI app – Gemini – which will create a list for you and help you not over pack.
2. Involve your kids
Jemma said: “My girls are getting older, they’re 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say ‘this is what you need’ and they follow the list.
“And then I give them a rucksack each – and say to them ‘you can have whatever you want in there as long as it’s not liquid’, and they can take that on the plane. And that’s their ‘home away from home’ items.”
3. Try a hack or two
She said: “I think they all work, but for different reasons – and you’ve just got to pick the right one for your trip.
“Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you’re trying to get a lot of items into your case, it’s a space saver.
“Packing cubes are great – for example, I’m going on holiday with my three kids and we’re all using the same suitcase for our clothes.
“These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked.
“I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we’ve arrived.”
4. Decant beauty products
Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets – which are much lighter and smaller.
Or, if you’ll be popping to the shops when you’re abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive.
5. Get organised before you come home
Jemma said: “When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes.
“Also pack it in some form of order – so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person.
“Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don’t leave it.”
The bag is available for £9.99 on Amazon, where it has a rating of 4.5/5 from more than 3,300 reviews.
Of those who reviewed it, 83 per cent of customers gave it either four or five stars.
One person described it as a “life-saver” after taking it on holiday.
They wrote: “I travelled with the bag and it was a lifesaver.”
Brits looking to avoid hefty luggage fees are also raving for the Bordlite Under the Seat Handheld Bag.
The eye-catching accessory comports with most airline measurements and is a steal.
The black bag is scanning at B&M for just £6.
