Amazon 'very roomy' Ryanair bag now €12 off and it has 800 perfect ratings
With summer holidays in full swing and thousands preparing for budget getaways, Amazon has dropped the price of a highly-rated Ryanair-approved bag that travellers are calling "very roomy".
Amazon Prime Day is running from July 8 to 11 and offers major deals on travel must-haves, including this VMIKIV Cabin Travel Bag, which fits Ryanair's strict 40 x 20 x 25 cm dimensions. Thanks to a limited-time €12 discount, the popular bag is down from €40.99 to €29.99.
It has racked up more than 800 perfect ratings, with buyers raving about its space, comfort and design. Shoppers say the bag is "very roomy", with many confirming it fits up to 4 days' worth of clothes and passed through boarding with "no questions asked".
One person wrote: "Carried on 2 Ryanair flights no questions asked. The depth is quite surprising and I got in everything I needed for a few days in Europe, plus a laptop and some food and drinks. Buying this bag actually saved me money on baggage fees over twice what I paid for the bag."
Another said: "Perfect. Fitted all my clothes and everything I needed for a 4 day trip to Benidorm and Italy. Fitted under the airplane seat. Lots of different compartments. Good quality."
A third added: "As soon as it arrived I thought that I would never be able to make anything stay in it, but believe me that there is a lot of stuff and for a weekend it's great. There is no risk of exceeding the measures and paying for additional luggage."
Many buyers also praised the bag's sleek, versatile design, saying it's perfect for both flying and everyday use.
One buyer explained: "The minimalist and elegant design makes it suitable for both travel and everyday use. Perfect as hand luggage for flights, it is just as useful for everyday activities such as work, school or excursions."
Another shared: "I'm currently using it for carrying my laptop to work and the odd bit of shopping going to and from."
A third stated: "I am really happy with the VMIKIV backpack, which I use daily for work and leisure. The design is modern and the quality of the materials is good, with durable seams and waterproof fabric that protects the contents well."
Someone else added: "Another advantage is its versatility: it is equally well suited for business trips as well as for personal trips. It has become my go-to travel companion."
Another highlight was how comfortable this bag is to carry. One person said: "The padded shoulder straps are comfortable and adjustable, making the backpack ideal even for long walks or working days." Another chimed in: "The bag is very comfortable to wear, thanks to the adjustable and padded shoulder straps. I am very happy with this backpack and recommend it to anyone looking for light and comfortable hand luggage for flights with Ryanair."
However others did note some minor drawbacks. One buyer said: "The only reason I don't give 5 stars is that, despite being quite large, I would have preferred a few extra external pockets to have quick access to items such as water bottles or keys."
The VMIKIV Ryanair bag is available in nine colours, and with up to €12 off for Prime Day. For more information or to buy, click here.
