A hand luggage bag that meets the size requirements of both Ryanair and easyJet has been reduced by up to 40% during Amazon Prime Day, with prices starting at £14.39. The Hayayu expandable holdall is designed to comply with Ryanair's updated dimensions of 40 x 30 x 20 cm and easyJet's more generous allowance of 45 x 36 x 20 cm.
Ryanair and easyJet Luggage Policies
Ryanair revised its free hand luggage allowance last year from 40 x 20 x 25 cm to 40 x 30 x 20 cm. While this appears to offer more space, the change reduces length by 10 cm while adding 5 cm in another dimension, resulting in limited additional capacity. Passengers can bring larger bags by purchasing Priority boarding, but this incurs an extra cost.
easyJet permits a free cabin bag of up to 45 x 36 x 20 cm, including handles and wheels, which must fit under the seat. The bag can weigh up to 15 kg, provided the passenger can lift it unaided. Exceeding these dimensions may lead to a charge of up to £48.
Hayayu Bag Specifications and Deal
The Hayayu holdall ordinarily retails at £23.99 but is now available at a significant discount. The grey version costs £14.39 (40% off), the cream is £15.12 (37% off), and light blue, baby pink, and teal are all £16.64. The bag measures 40 x 28 x 20 cm, fitting Ryanair's restrictions, and features an expandable section that extends to meet easyJet's 45 x 20 x 36 cm dimensions.
Dublin-based reporter Fran tested the bag on a Ryanair flight. She noted its stylish design and availability in colours including green, grey, white, blue, black, and pink. Fran chose pale pink but suggested black might be more practical for travel.
Real-World Testing and Capacity
Fran was initially concerned the bag might be too large, but it fit Ryanair's sizer. She packed for an overnight work trip, including a 15.6-inch laptop that had caused issues with other carry-on bags. 'Out of all the bags I tested, this was the only one that could also accommodate my slightly larger laptop with ease,' she said.
The bag's expandable compartment was praised as its key feature. 'I imagine this will come in extremely handy on an upcoming holiday,' Fran added. The product holds a 4.6 out of 5-star rating on Amazon based on customer reviews.
Availability and Alternatives
The discount is subject to change or may end without notice, so interested buyers are advised to act promptly. Other hand luggage options include the CabinZero Classic Cabin backpack (£55, 28L capacity) and the Cabin Max Metz Hybrid Cabin Bag (£29.95, which converts between backpack and wheeled bag).
