It's a pretty level playing field, might as well get the klean kanteen. Pleased with mine and they aren't even that much of an eyesore nowadays.

the bag size checker is basically the same dimensions as the old cabin ones just half the length.so if its a soft case rucksack you could just squash it in to the checker. But as long as your bag is on your back they don't really check sizing. Ive flown with Ryanair 6 times this year they just look out for actual cabin bags that need to go in the overhead lockers. Any backpacks tend to go through unnoticed/checked. Saying that the last flight I got they were In such a rush they let people on with cabin bags who should be been charged they didn't have time to go through the process of charging people.
Has anyone in here flown with ryanair aka poverty airlines recently?
You used to be able to take a 10kg holdall or whatever and store it in the luggage racks for free but earlier this year they've made their 'personal baggage allowance' a pitiful 40cm x 25cm x 20cm (bag must 'fit underneath the seat infront') which basically means you can take fuck all unless you want to pay for a bag upgrade.
I've got two rucksacks which are more like 49/50cm x 25cm x 20cm and wondering whether they're super strict or not with the cm sizing or whether I'll be OK just chancing it and squashing it down if required? (one for me one for my mrs). It's already cost us £50 to get one set of '10kg check in bags' and I loathe paying any more to them for a quick flight to barcelona.

Mixed signals!
They're both small-looking rucksacks, really don't think there's much in it at all
Really hate ryanair these days, I know it's really my fault but can't help feeling bitter about their pathetic allowances. doesn't help that 'priority' boarding has sold out too. ffs

I flew with EasyJet recently and had a rucksack on my back plus carry on 'hand luggage' (Tripp hand luggage on wheels case). The bird at boarding checked my passport and said I couldn't take my rucksack so had to put it in my carry on - I had a huge plastic carrier bag for a single bottle of Duty Free whiskey that I'd bought so simply chucked my rucksack in there, covered it with a hoody (honest!) and then put the bottle of whiskey on top - no questions asked, got on the flight peice of piss. I did the same on the return before being questioned at boarding and there were no questions whatsoever.
Chuck shit in your Duty Free carrier bags - as long as there is some kinda Duty Free in there (and visible with a cursory glance) I'm guessing you'll get away with it.
