Trunki or backpacks for flight/ holiday?

We’re going on holiday next month and trying to get my little ones bits sorted for the flight- like toys, snacks etc. We have two little boys and was wondering would anyone recommend a trunki? I’m worried they might be too bulky and heavy, and we’ll probably end up carrying them plus the kids 🤦‍♀️ are they allowed…
