Bagging the best deal, savvy shoppers can find the bag on Amazon priced at £34.95, though it’s also available at good ol’ Debenhams for £35 and Next for £40, where it’s reigning supreme as the go-to luggage choice. Not only does it feature top handles, a shoulder strap, and a sleeve to slide over suitcase handles, but it also boasts an array of pockets and compartments to keep your travel essentials organised and safe during your trip.
Available in several colours such as classic black, chic cream, millennial pink, and even sassy leopard print, the cabin bag comes with larger cousins in the 24L and 30L sizes for those needing a bit more space. It features sophisticated leather-look accents set against durable polyester fabric for travelers wanting to jet off in style.

It’s no surprise it has racked up a host of five-star reviews from globetrotters who have already taken the bag out for a spin.
One thrilled customer said: “It’s so fashionable while being practical for plane travel or weekend trips. I love every single feature, especially that you can slide it over the luggage handle on your suitcase. The external pockets are great for storing things that you need easy and fast access to, like your passport, boarding pass or phone.”
Another satisfied buyer agreed, saying: “I purchased this specifically to use as carry on luggage with Ryanair. This bag fits the dimensions perfectly. It is high quality and well padded. The compartments are useful for storing items so you can access them easily on the plane.”
Adding to the positive reviews, a third pleased traveller shared: “Fantastic great quality cabin bag. Worth paying a little extra for! Exact dimensions as described and lots of inner pockets / side partitions within. Very happy customer!”
Yet another fan raved about the bag, highlighting its functionality: “Excellent quality, pockets for all travel documents and a phone. There is even enough room for essential arrival clothes such as shorts, t-shirt, sliders and more.”
The bag boasted an impressive five-star rating from nearly three-quarters of shoppers. Despite its popularity, some critiques did emerge, with a few buyers noting issues related to durability; parts reportedly broke or sustained damage after initial use.
