Taking everything you need on holiday, while also keeping to strict hand-luggage limits is a difficult balance to strike.
However, on a trip to Lisbon, Darcy Bubz (@darcybubz) showed how she was able to take all the clothes and items she wanted, all in her carry on bag, without having to pay for any extra baggage.
In a video she shared on Tiktok, she asked: “What can fit in the viral carry on bag?”
She then showed herself packing a string of items, including: “5 outfits, pyjamas, underwear, facecloths, makeup bag, liquids, makeup, toiletries, microfibre towel, chargers, GoPro, SD cards, tech gear, hygiene products, jewellery, adapter plug, toothbrush, airtag, passport and travel wallet, portable charger, mints, camera, card wallet, hairbrush and hairbands, straighteners, tripod, headphones, rechargeable fan, sunglasses, handbag”.
Darcy rounds her video off by giving the bag a 10/10 rating, saying she would recommend it to other travellers.
Her footage has been seen more than three million times, with people asking her where she’d bought the bag from.
She revealed it was called the Kono travel carry on bag, which can be bought on Amazon for less than £15.
It fits the 40x20x25 size limit for Ryanair and describes itself as “the perfect piece of cabin hand luggage for your travels”.
It features two handles on the top with a velcro clasp so it can be carried by hand.
It also comes with a length-adjustable shoulder strap for those who don’t want to carry it.
There’s also a dedicated mounting sleeve so it can be mounted over an extendable trolley handle.
The bag has one large main compartment, an inner zip pocket for passports and documents and two inner slot pockets for phones and changers.
There’s also a front quick access pocket for items that need to be found quickly.
It has an overall rating of 4.3/5 from hundreds of reviews, the majority of which are 5/5.
One reviewer wrote: “Excellent bag to maximise personal carry allowance on luggage for flights. Amazing what can fit into it and am looking forward to using it again.”
Another said: “Just the right size, holds everything needed and lightweight.”
A third added: “Could not believe how much I got in the bag. Good quality.”
