The line of travel items will come in useful whether you’re limited to a tiny carry-on bag or check-in luggage.
Taking to social media, Sarah Denby showed a range of the new buys to make your travels less stressful.
“Travel essentials from Primark,” she captioned the post.
The first item she showed was a pack of three packing cubes which you can purchase for just £8.
Not only are they handy to separate your different clothing items (and dirty laundry) they also help to maximise space in your luggage.
Another handy buy to help make the most of your luggage and fit in more clothes in a carry-on bag was the 5-pack Travel Compression Bags which cost just £3.50.
To use the bags, you simply fold your clothes and place them into the bags before closing them up.
You then roll the bag into a burrito to let out any excess air to maximise every single bit of space in your luggage.
Also up for grabs in a technology pouch for £3.50 to which will come in handy to keep cables, battery packs and cameras organised.
And that’s not, Primark has your back when it comes to electricals for the flight.

People were quick to take to the comments, claiming they needed the products while another urged Sarah to check out their carry-on luggage.
Holiday packing tips
Jemma Solomon, aka The Label Lady has got 5 packing tips to help you get organised for your next holiday.
1. Write a list
Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase.
Or for complete ease, try Google’s AI app – Gemini – which will create a list for you and help you not over pack.
2. Involve your kids
Jemma said: “My girls are getting older, they’re 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say ‘this is what you need’ and they follow the list.
“And then I give them a rucksack each – and say to them ‘you can have whatever you want in there as long as it’s not liquid’, and they can take that on the plane. And that’s their ‘home away from home’ items.”
3. Try a hack or two
She said: “I think they all work, but for different reasons – and you’ve just got to pick the right one for your trip.
“Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you’re trying to get a lot of items into your case, it’s a space saver.
“Packing cubes are great – for example, I’m going on holiday with my three kids and we’re all using the same suitcase for our clothes.
“These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked.
“I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we’ve arrived.”
4. Decant beauty products
Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets – which are much lighter and smaller.
Or, if you’ll be popping to the shops when you’re abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive.
5. Get organised before you come home
Jemma said: “When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes.
“Also pack it in some form of order – so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person.
“Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don’t leave it.”
One person wrote: “Forgot the best thing, the underseat suitcase!”
Another commented: “Need all of this!”
