Ever been one of those travellers trying to ram a cabin case into the size checker at the airport? Well now Sainsbury's have solved the problem with the Constellation Cabin Case.
If you check out the easyJet website for information on cabin baggage you'll see that their guaranteed size to carry on is 50x40x20cm including the handles and wheels. They provide a list of suppliers of the correct size cases and one is Sainsbury's.
The Sainsbury's Constellation cabin case comes in a smart light grey with bright blue zips. There's a pocket accessible from the front of the case for documents etc and another zipped one inside. Apart from the extending handle there is also one padded handle on the top and another at the side for easy transportation.
Another important consideration is its weight. It is nice and light at 2.98kg and has a 31L capacity. At the back of the case is a black holder for your ID. As a precaution never put your full address on a suitcase just the number of your house and post code. You don't want to advertise the face that you're going away.
I haven't had chance to put it to the easyJet test but seeing that they recommend it there is no problem. As both daughter Olivia and I travel for work, the Constellation Cabin Case is a perfect addition to our luggage.
PWT rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
Retailing at Sainsbury's at £29.99 (plus 58 Nectar points) this cabin case represents excellent value.
