    As the title says 2 cabin (ryanair approved size) bags for £25 incl delivery - they have loads of colours. They are a great price, but they have mixed reviews. If you spend a little more you can get free delivery.

    wow looks good...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,582 ✭✭✭stickybean


    Read all the reviews there, the main problem seems to be they won't stand by themselves, just something to consider if you are ordering.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,246 ✭✭✭deegs


    Not sure that would be a deal breaker for a 15Euro bag?
    One comment said as he bought two he just stands them together... seems ok

    Ah I agree, just wanted to mention it in case someone didn't get to see the reviews

    Mmm seems a bit too big for the 2 of them. Can someone confirm as its a great bargin but with £15 P&P is nearly double the price.

    Something passengers might have to do in the future,on Ryanair planes.:pac:


    Standing room at the back of short haul Ryanair planes....I kid you not.:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,252 ✭✭✭loopymum


    They do weight 3kg though which is quite a lot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,735 ✭✭✭brightkane


    3kg for 2, 1.5kg each


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 327 ✭✭haymur


    Looked at these a few weeks ago but decided no for these reasons [1]They have top pockets (2) when you pack the bag its bound to exceed 20cm and wont fit the Ryanair test frame also they add to the empty weight. [2]When packed for shipping they will exceed the max Parcel Hotel size.[3] they are too heavy and I would prefer a bag of 55-40-20 cm to hold max amount

    Will you let me know if you have any problems with parcel motel. The 2 cases is under the limit but depending on how there packed it might exceed. They seem a great bargin.
