Multi-compartment deflatable carryon luggage provides a system with a plurality of bags. The bags can connect to each other and release from each other. When a traveler is packing fewer items, the traveler can detach unneeded bags and only take the bags that are needed. When additional items are needed, more of the bags can be added and connected to each other. In the case of a carryon bag, the bags forming the carryon luggage have a combined size that complies with airline carryon baggage requirements for a single bag. To increase the amount stored in each bag, a deflatable airtight bag is included inside each bag of the luggage. Before being deflated, the deflatable bag has a volume that is greater than the volume of the bag in which the deflatable airtight bag is disposed. After being deflated, the deflatable airtight bag has a volume no larger than the volume of bag in which the deflatable airtight bag is disposed. A pump can be integrated in the luggage. The pump is used to pump the air from the airtight bag after it has been packed.
