FLYING PERSONAL ITEM ONLY TO ITALY (aka watch me struggle trying to fit everything into a 20L bag)

- In this video I am packing the Cabin Max Manhattan backpack to take with me on a 5 day day trip to Italy. I flew with Ryanair and had only paid for the personal item (which is 45x25x20cm), so packing everything I needed for staying in a hostel into this small bag was a struggle.
Full disclaimer I did end up buying a different bag when I arrived in Italy as the zip broke on this one; check out my review of the Decathlon bag I bought as a replacement here: • REVIEWING THE £5.99 DE...
Have you travelled personal item only? What do you think is the secret to packing lighter?

I travelled with Ryanair in June and I wore a sleeveless vest with pockets to put all the things I would put in a everyday bag. I got it off Amazon, there are a few RUclipss on how to do it. The airlines cannot stop you as it is clothing.
Ohhhh nice one this is a good idea 💡
@@susanburke8722 I tried this while packing but I am finding the vest I have to be too big and bulky to add to my 8kg backpack after the flight. Soooo, back to the drawing board for me for those few extra kg that don’t fit in my backpack.
@@adventureswithmegan I just bit the bullet and booked priority boarding both ways. That gave me a small case for the overhead cabin. I did take a travel vest, but as you say, i took it off at my destination and put it in the case and took out a sling bag to put my personal things in. I hope you find a solution and enjoy the trip.
@@susanburke8722 yes that makes sense. Top tip if you’re flying with Ryanair it’s usually cheaper to add a carry on without the priority (it’s the step after priority and is usually about £15 to add just the case and not priority boarding or seat selection)
How much did that weigh? Most companies now have weight limits for carry ons. I'm going to Japan next year and will have to fit everything into a 32 L. 😅
@@catarixpto sorry I didn’t weigh it as Ryanair don’t weigh your bag but definitely under 10kg as I could very easily lift it. Have a great time in Japan 🇯🇵
I've found that with the exception of a few Asian budget airlines, most airlines won't actuallly weigh your carryons, and if you're wearing a backpack, 32L looks small enough on most people's frames to fly under the radar.
@@ariesmryJetstar in Australia are very keen on weighing too 🫠
I just managed to pack a 8kg bag for a 35 day trip to Europe. Whew! It was a lot of work. A 32L bag will most likely be fine for your trip. I have 35L bag and it isn’t full. I made an unlisted packing video for my friends.
@@karenwendt5514 oh this sounds great! What backpack do you have?
How many litres is that drybag? Seems very handy!
@@blessingaliu123 which one? The orange one for my electronics is 1L, as is the one with my portable charger in. The blue one I’ve had for years and years so I don’t know exactly but I would imagine 3-5L. I don’t know where you’re based, but in the UK they sell them in outdoor shops and usually have a range of sizes. Definitely very handy and I’m a big fan of using them to keep my liquids away from my electronics.
You must have read my mind! Was looking for a real just 1 small bag packing video..most just say that then produce a 2nd bag!!! I want to try the plastic compression bag idea rather than compression material bags next time. I love Italy been 26 times by now.. enjoy..❤❤ I alwaya used cabinmax 55 size wheel on but now too big for easyjet since changed rules. Metz 30l will be next step. For short term looks doable but not for winter summer long term plus a stock of my meds...etc!!
@@lbunnygordon1133 ooh yay I’m so glad it came out at the right time for you :). Yes this was fine for personal item size with Ryanair. I hope you have good travels 🎒
YES! Or they say minimalist and then their bag is 15kg 😭 here in Australia we have a 7kg weight limit for our carry on bags
@@user-de1qj6nl3w the struggle is genuinely so real with the 7kg limit in Aus 🫠
@@user-de1qj6nl3w I don’t know how I could travel with just 7kg. That pretty much forces you to have a checked bag. I just barely got my things to 8kg by using a vest with pockets for some things. I am going to six European countries with just 8kg in my pack and will put the vest in my pack after the flight.
@@karenwendt5514 I’m going to the UK next year and I’ve managed to choose airlines with a 10kg limit! But my first domestic flight is still 7kg so I’m planning to just stuff my pockets and wear my pj pants under my jeans etc! It’s only 2 hours so I’ll just suffer so I can have everything for my 6 weeks away 😂 I am going to New Zealand later this year and that will have to be with the 7kg though
You pack a lot for a very small person😂😂😂
😂 I’m quite active so don’t tend to wear a top more than one day
LOL these ladies packing videos, going away for 5 days taking 2 pairs of socks, but toiletries for 3 months.
Ah yes I do like to shower daily..yet to be able to take just five days worth of deodorant with me but drop me a recommendation if you’ve seen a small one, would be great to have a smaller natural one to travel with on shorter trips :)
