    How It Works

    Pack your clothes as usual — then let VAULTBAG’s compression system work its magic.

    Using the free air pump provided, or even a standard vacuum, attach to our one-way valve and remove the air from the dedicated vacuum compartment.

    In seconds, your soft items shrink by 50% in volume, giving you up to half your bag back for extra outfits, gear, or souvenirs. More space. Less bulk. Zero stress.

    How it works

    Pack. Compress. Walk Straight On.

    Built-in vacuum compression shrinks your clothes 50% in under 30 seconds. Pack a week's worth, slide under any seat, walk past the £75 fee. Every flight.

    Pack your items lay-flat
    Step 1

    Pack Everything You Want

    Clothes, shoes, toiletries, stuff it all in. The vacuum compartment holds up to 5 days of gear. No special folding. No leaving things behind.

    Step 2

    Compress In Seconds

    Click the included portable pump onto the valve and press start. 30 seconds later, your clothes are 50% smaller and your bag is gate-ready.

    Step 3

    Slide It Underseat

    Counts as your free personal item on every airline. No weight limit, so load it heavy. No sizer cage. No £75 charge.

    "Walked straight past the gate for free."

    "Flew Ryanair twice and avoided baggage fees both times. It slides right under the seat, fits way more than it looks like it should, and I walked straight past the gate for free... already saved over £300."

    The choice

    Two ways through the gate. Only one is free.

    Every budget flight, the same choice at the gate. One side keeps paying £75+. The other never pays again.

    • Bleeding your holiday budget dry before you've even landed.
    • Paying the airlines who keep shrinking the rules to trap you.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    help

    Isn't there a weight limit on the free Ryanair underseat bag?

    Nope, and this surprises most people. Ryanair's free personal bag has no weight limit whatsoever. The only rule is size: 40x30x20cm. VAULTBAG® is engineered to those exact dimensions, so pack it as heavy as you like and walk straight through.

    help

    Will it definitely fit under the seat?

    Yes. VAULTBAG® is built to the exact 40x30x20cm Ryanair and easyJet underseat specification, not approximated, not "close enough." Every millimetre is accounted for. Soft-sided construction means it compresses naturally into the space without forcing it.

    help

    What if the gate agent stops me at the gate?

    They won't. VAULTBAG® passes every bag sizer because it was designed around them. Thousands of customers have boarded Ryanair and easyJet flights without paying a penny in bag fees. That is the whole point.

    help

    How much can I actually fit inside?

    The VAULTBAG® offers ample space (40 Litres when using compression) to effortlessly organize your essentials. Its generous interior comfortably houses clothing, shoes, toiletries, and more, ensuring you're well-equipped for up to 3-5+ days of travel. Whether you're embarking on a relaxing vacation or a brisk business trip, this versatile companion ensures you're prepared for any journey.

    help

    Which airlines does VAULTBAG® work on?

    Any airline that allows a free 40x30x20cm underseat bag, including Ryanair and Wizz Air. It also fits well within the larger free allowances on easyJet (45x36x20cm), TUI, Jet2, British Airways and most major international carriers.

    help

    What is the difference between VAULTBAG® and a normal backpack?

    A normal backpack is either too big to qualify as a free underseat bag, or small enough to qualify but wastes most of its space. VAULTBAG® solves both problems. It sits within the strictest airline size limits and uses vacuum compression to pack 50% more than a standard bag of the same size. One bag, no fees, no compromises.

    help

    What materials is the bag made from?

    Main fabric: 100% Recycled Nylon 900D Face wax coating & Back PUcoating, GRS certified, PFC free

    Back panel fabric: 100% Polyester
    interlock Lining: 100% Polyester 230T

    Mesh: 100% Polyester

    Webbing: Polypropylene Webbing, Nylon Herringbone Webbing

    Foams: Polvethylene Foams, EVA Foams, Neoprene Foams

    help

    Is the Vacuum Pump Included?

    Yes! For our special offer we are giving away our exclusive VAULTBAG® - Air Pump with every order.

    help

    How long does it take to ship?

    We offer free fast tracked shipping for all orders. Order processing takes 1-2 business days before shipment. Once your item/s is dispatched, the estimated delivery time is:

    - USA: 6-8 business days

    help

    Is there a Money-Back Guarantee?

    We love our VAULTBAG® and are confident you will too! That's why we're offering a 90-Day, Risk-Free Guarantee. If you're not satisfied, we'll gladly issue a full refund.

      Excellent carry on bag!

      The bag is made of solid construction and materials. It has worked so well for my trip to Egypt. The design is excellent and you can see it has been well thought out. This does what it’s designed for and that’s to fit under plane seat in front of you, so it meets the ‘small carry on category’ requirement. Oh almost forgot to mention the vacuum pump is powerful and does a fantastic job, and you include it with the bag totally awesome. The bag is made of solid construction and materials.
