IF YOU’RE someone who lives out of their suitcase while on holiday, we might’ve found the bag for you.
Unpacking on holiday can be rather tedious, but there’s one bag that comes with it’s very own built-in wardrobe.

While most holidaymakers will be familiar with brands like Narwey and CabinMax, there might be a new player in town.
The bag in question is the Mavii Costume Rack Duffel, which can be purchased on Amazon.
According to the Amazon website, the wheeled suitcase comes with a collapse garment rack that’s capable of holding more than 15lb (6.8kg).
The garment rack is made from aluminum, which makes it both lightweight and durable.
In addition to the garment rack, the bag has several external pockets too.
The bag itself is made from a soft material, which means it can be completely collapsed for easy storage.
It comes in two colours, including grey and mint.
The bag’s dimensions are 38.1 x 38.1 x 71.12 cm, making it too big for overhead cabin bag restrictions.
Despite the useful built-in travel rack, the bag doesn’t come cheap, as it retails at £242 on Amazon.
While there aren’t any reviews of the bag online at the moment, the Sun Online Travel team has tried out plenty of different underseat bags to help you choose which is the best one to take on your flight.
The Narwey Duffel Bag
After holidaymakers described the bag as a “life-saver”, I decided to put the bag through its paces on a five-day trip to Bratislava, Slovakia, and Vienna, Austria.
I strategically packed the bag and filled it with plenty of items, including a microfibre towel, two dresses, two pairs of tights, three t-shirts, a pair of trousers, underwear, socks and a pair of pyjamas.
Other items I squeezed inside included a tightly-packed liquids bag, a make-up bag, a shampoo bar, a toothbrush, electricals and a Kindle.
While it may sound like too much stuff, I was surprised at how easily the bag slid into the luggage-size checker at the airport.
The only downside to the bag was the handle, which felt very rough and dug into my hand as I carried it around Europe.
The bag can be bought from £15.99 via the Amazon website.
Trinary Underseat Cabin Suitcase, it
Last year, Sun Online Travel’s Kara Godfrey tested out the tiny magenta suitcase.
The dinky Trinary Underseat Cabin Suitcase abides by nearly all airline restrictions, (excluding Ryanair, sadly).
According to Kara, there’s still enough space to cram clothes and toiletries for a long weekend.
There are compression straps, which means you can pack a lot more inside the suitcase, while still fitting it underneath the plane seat.
The bag also has two zip pockets on the front, which Kara described as “perfect for keeping a passport safe – as well as a TSA lock for extra security”.
Each suitcase comes with a 10-year warranty, so you’re covered if it ever breaks.
CabinMax Metz stowaway backpack
A lot of people have raved about the 20L rucksack, which only weighs 500 grams.
It’s been described as an “ideal companion for Ryanair flights” as well as other major airlines.
Ryan Gray, from Sun Online Travel, frequently uses his CabinMax Metz Stowaway backpack when flying, and he said: “It’s very practical and gives you peace of mind knowing that you’re not going to exceed the baggage limits with most airlines.
“It’s roomier than you might expect a backpack to be and I’ve been able to take it away on a five-day trip, meaning I didn’t have to pay any extra for my luggage. It’s sturdy too – I’ve had mine for several years now and had no problems with it.”
Meanwhile, Ryanair passengers are obsessed with this hard shell suitcase that fits under the budget airline’s seats.
Meanwhile, this flight attendant revealed how they feel about passengers trying Tiktok luggage hacks on their planes.
And this 20p hack can help you avoid having to pay for extra hand luggage.
