Ryanair measures bags closely at the gate, and a suitcase that's a couple of centimetres over the limit can mean a fee, often around £70 or more if you're caught out. Eminent's Ryanair collection is built to the airline's exact allowances, so you can check the size before you fly rather than find out at the gate.
Every Ryanair fare includes one free bag, and Ryanair's paid Priority Boarding add-on includes a second, larger one:
A wheeled suitcase isn't part of the free allowance. Without Priority, you're limited to the smaller underseat bag. Rules and fees change, so check the current terms on the Ryanair baggage page before you fly.
Our 55 x 40 x 20 cm cabin suitcases match Ryanair's Priority allowance exactly, not the deeper 23 cm depth some cabin suitcases use for other airlines. A few things that follow from that:
A cabin suitcase for regular Ryanair trips needs to survive a lot of flights without needing replacing. That's how we build ours:
No. Without Priority, you're limited to the free personal bag, up to 40 x 30 x 20 cm, which fits under the seat. A wheeled cabin suitcase needs Priority added to your booking.
It's measured against a sizer, and if it doesn't fit, you'll be charged to check it in on the spot, a fee that's often significantly more than paying for Priority in advance. Buying and packing to the exact allowance beforehand avoids this.
Often, yes. At 55 x 40 x 20 cm, Ryanair's Priority bag is tighter than the allowance on several other airlines, including some other low-cost carriers, so a case built for Ryanair tends to fit elsewhere too.
Usually. A suitcase built to Ryanair's 55 x 40 x 20 cm limit fits within the larger allowances those airlines use, making it a safe choice if you fly more than one low-cost carrier out of the UK.
