    We did a ten day holiday to Spain with only hand luggage. My small case weighs 3.5 kgs so I decided it was too heavy and I went with all my worldly goods in a poly bag. I must have looked like a gypsy. I decided there must be a market for a decent very light travel bag and a friend has made one to Ryanair measurements using ripstop nylon. It weighs about 100 grams and looks great but I can't persuade her to go into production. Anyone else interested in taking it on?

    Yes we go on loads of ryanair flights with small wheely cases as we have children and end up pulling theirs as well. I've beeen looking for cases that are lighter but with wheels and actually they are hard to come by.

    Good for girlies but I bought a great bag in Primark for £6. It's a holdall/shopper type bag and fitted perfectly in their case checking things. I also got my shoes, going out outfit, straighteners, make up, toiletries, underwear, change of top, nightwear and one boot in it and had room to spare. Have a good trip!

    I'm realy jealous - passing through Stansted yesterday on Ryanair my trusty old backpack self-destructed.

    The cheapest one they had in the terminal shops that would fit all my junk was £40!

    Maybe finc meant a book??

    I thought the same as you lot at first, but she said 'one boot with room to spare', so surely if it was boots, both of them would have been able to fit in the bag?

    Thanks thats really helpful, only wish I could press the Thanks button more than once!! Certainly won't be asking questions on this board again.
    It's not about not asking questions, but in fairness you asked a basic question which could have been easily looked up. You posted over 8 hours ago and your question hasn't been answered yet, but you could have found this out on the Ryanair website in less than 10 mins.

    Feel free to ask questions, but if you're asking someone to do your research for you because you can't be bothered to waste 10 mins of your own time then expect abuse.

    I've recently bought a Samsonite - X'Ion Upright 50cm. It cost a hundred quid, which I know is a lot of money. However I never scrimp on baggage. This will last me at least ten years and cover several hundred thousand miles!

    Looks like the price has gone up!
