With many airlines now only allowing a small handbag or backpack as a free cabin bag, packing all your essentials for a budget trip can be quite the task. But fret not, Antler’s Soft Stripe Underseat Cabin Bag is here to save the day. Designed to snugly fit under your plane seat, this gem is currently on offer in the brand’s mid-season sale for £104, down from its original price of £130. The case, measuring 35 x 45 x 20 cm, meets the requirements of airlines such as British Airways, EasyJet and Virgin Atlantic, making it an absolute must-have for frequent flyers, long weekend getaways or overnight trips. This case boasts a double-layered pocket, offering quick access to electronics and crucial documents like boarding passes or passports – a real game-changer when navigating airport security. The soft exterior, unlike a hard shell, is a bonus when using a smaller case, as it allows you to squeeze in that little bit extra.

The lightweight design of the case is another plus point, as it fits under your seat but can also be tucked away in the overhead locker for added legroom. After all, there’s nothing worse than struggling to hoist your bags, causing a delay for everyone else on board or needing to summon a flight attendant, reports the Mirror. Available in shades of indigo blue, forest green and black, the case perfectly complements the other Soft Stripe suitcases, which are also on sale. The Lightest Cabin Suitcase is now priced at £136, the Lightest Medium Suitcase at £168, and the Lightest Large Suitcase at £192. If you’re after a more budget-friendly option, Tripp’s hard shell underseat cabin case is up for grabs at £42 here. This bag’s dimensions are also a perfect fit for EasyJet and British Airways flights. However, do note that Ryanair’s luggage allowance is a tad smaller compared to other airlines. So, if you’re hunting for baggage that meets their free hand luggage criteria, a backpack like this one from Amazon, priced at £25.99 here, would likely be your best bet.
