Next has launched a cabin bag that promises both practicality and style for savvy travellers.
The Cabin Max Vela 20L Tote Bag is designed to snugly fit under seats of airlines such as Ryanair and Easyjet, while also serving as an effortlessly chic shoulder bag at your destination.
Holiday-goers are raving about the bag’s multiple pockets and compartments which are perfect for organising essentials like ‘cables, phone, Kindle and chargers making them easy to find’.
Available in a selection of six hues – black, pink, brown, grey, blue, and cream – there’s a colour option to suit every fashion palette.
Crafted from durable 600D PU material with a touch of metallic detail, this lightweight polyester tote measures 40cm in width, 20cm in depth, and 25cm in height.
Furthermore, Next offers a companion backpack for £40, a four-wheel cabin case for £50, and a vanity case priced at £30. Customers have given the underseat cabin bag an impressive overall rating of 4.5 stars, reports Birmingham Live.
A satisfied customer shared their experience: “I bought this specifically for a Ryanair flight, it fitted perfectly under the seat in front and it was easy to carry round as you just sat it on top of the cabin bag, very spacious and looks good.”

Echoing the sentiment, another remarked: “Very spacious. I love the different pockets for storing cables, phone, Kindle and chargers making them easy to find. Has enough space to be a very useful overnight bag.”
One customer praised: “Lovely travel bag – fits just right under the seat in front on the aeroplane. Plenty of pockets and room for travel things, area for passport etc. would highly recommend. The shoulder strap is very comfortable to wear when carrying the bag.”
Another penned their approval, stating: “Great, stylish bag. Lots of different compartments. Used it on an Easy Jet flight, also Ryanair. Really pleased with it. Good quality and like the colour of the trim.”
Further endorsement came from a traveller who commented: “Very stylish bag. Lots of compartments. Very easy to access passports etc without having to open all the bag by using the side zip panels.”
However, while the feedback was overwhelmingly positive, one user found the cost somewhat steep, remarking: “Nice size to take on plane with lots of space for your passports, electrical devices etc.. felt price was a bit expensive, hence 4 stars and not 5.”
Describing the Cabin Max bag, Next highlights its features: “The 40x25x20cm design is perfect for avoiding extra hand luggage fees on airlines like Ryanair.”
Enthusiastic flyers can carry it in multiple ways: “Wear it as a shoulder bag, carry it by the top handles or combine it with your rolling luggage via the rear handle pass-through.”
Moreover, storage won’t be an issue as: “It has a 20L internal capacity with laptop, iPad and Kindle storage plus netted internal pockets for travel accessories and chargers. External pockets for phones, tickets and travel documents.”
