To do a ten day holiday in europe with ryan air under Seat hand luggage only. I think I can do it but I have been met with FURIOUS resistance from people saying it’s impossible. Please tell me your best packing hacks for the smallest hand luggage. I can wash clothes six days in so that feels inmediately like only a six day holiday…. Help!

You need to get yourself a bag like this

Use packing cubes, wear your bulkiest items, eg jacket and trainers, onto the plane. Neck cushion filled with underwear as PP suggested is a great idea. Refine toiletries and beauty products to the bare essentials, and decant them into the smallest containers possible.

I just can’t imagine paying and making the effort to go on holiday and standing there washing my knickers in the sink multiple times in the week.
I mean, just why?
Why make it so miserable? Just pay for a bloody bag.

If you pack 5 though, you'd only need to wash them once mid-holiday. It doesn't take long at all! 10 mins work to save about £60 or whatever it is these days. Worth it for many I'd say. Cheaper even to buy more knickers if necessary at the destination.

Primark do an amazing under seat bag. The wheels even pop on and off so to make it smaller when it needs to go in the size thingy. It was about £20

I do it all the time. It's easy all clothes coordinate, roll them small and tight, take one pair of shoes (wear them to travel )

3 pairs of linen shorts and three T-shirts is 9 outfits - get them in black, white, and grey or burgundy (or any other colour of choice). Monochrome for nights out dressed up with jewelry and mix and match for daytime. Wear your trainers and pack a pair of sandals. 1 bikini, 1 dress, 1 nightie, 5 pairs pants. Wear a pair of trousers, a jumper, and a light jacket. If you need a towel the microfiber ones from Decathlon are great.
