No, the cubes are made from extremely lightweight tear resistant nylon. They weigh between 60 grams to 130 grams each and will not burden you down with excess baggage fees. Most people find that packing cubes help them plan better and cut weight from their suitcase.

"Packing cubes" and "packing cells" are just different names for the same thing - luggage organisers.

Well, that depends on the size of your case or luggage. It is very hard to give a one fit solution for all as each traveller's needs are different. Besides each manufacturer offers luggage in different sizes. We have a guide here to illustrate a scenario for the most common suitcase sizes.

Basic packing cubes allow you to compress your items slightly by squeezing them into the existing cube shape. Compression cubes have a secondary zipper that you close once you've filled your packing cube, squeezing more air out and taking up less space in your suitcase.

The amount of compression will depend on the number and type of item. Bulky clothing, like jackets and jumpers, or light fabrics, like t-shirts, will compress a lot of air out. Dense items or heavy materials, like jeans, will compress less. Our Compression Cubes will allow you to squeeze between 6cm and 8cm from each cube.
