Under-seat cabin backpack

TAKT 20 Under-Seat Cabin Backpack

£39.99
Colour

Built to 40 x 30 x 20 cm. Ryanair, Jet2, TUI and Wizz Air all set the free under-seat bag at exactly that, and easyJet allows more.

It opens flat like a case rather than a rucksack, so you pack it on a bed instead of balancing it on your knee at the gate.

Three colourways: rose, black and grey. One size, one price.

The measurement

40 × 30 × 20

Centimetres · the size it is built to

That is the size the bag is built to, and the size four carriers set as their limit. It is not a figure we have measured ourselves yet.

The first run is in transit. We are putting a sample through a gate sizer the day it lands and publishing what it actually measures, along with capacity and empty weight. We would rather leave a number blank than estimate it.

Read off each airline's own page on 14 September 2026 and rechecked monthly. Every row links to the carrier's page so you can see it for yourself. Our own measured figure goes in this table once we have put a bag through a sizer.

About the British Airways row. BA have withdrawn the hand baggage allowances page we used to read, and now publish the figure through an interactive baggage calculator instead of on a page we can link you to. The figure shown is the last one we read from them, on 13 September 2026, and we have left it here because it is more useful than a blank. Treat it as the last known figure rather than a checked one, and confirm it in BA's own calculator before you fly.

People are asking

Will it fit under the seat in front of me?

Ryanair, Jet2, TUI and Wizz Air all set the free under-seat bag at 40 x 30 x 20 cm. easyJet allows 45 x 36 x 20. British Airways sets 40 x 30 x 15, so a bag 20 cm deep goes in the overhead locker instead. Every row in the table above links to the airline page it came from. Our own measurement goes alongside them before a single bag ships.

Have you measured one yourself?

Not yet, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. The first run is still in transit. The maker's own listing and our spec do not agree on the height, so we are measuring a sample with a gate sizer the day it lands and publishing what we get, whichever way it falls. Nothing ships before that.

Is it waterproof?

No. The fabric is water-repellent nylon and the maker rates it for light rain. The zips are not sealed, so it is not a dry bag and we will not call it one. There is a separate lined pocket on the front for wet kit, so a damp towel stays away from everything else.

What is it made of?

A nylon outer with a polyester lining, and two-way zips throughout. The shoe compartment sits at the base and is vented. Capacity and empty weight go up as measured figures once we have a bag in hand.

Can I take it as a second bag with a cabin case?

Yes, where the carrier allows a free under-seat bag alongside a paid cabin bag. The table above links to each airline's own page.

When does it ship?

The first run is in transit. Leave your email on this page and you will get one message when it lands, with the shipping date as soon as we have it. No payment now.
