Budget flights are a fantastic way to save on a holiday but tourists might have some regrets when they see their luggage allowance.
Airlines such as easyJet and Ryanair often don’t include a cabin bag in the price of a ticket and tourists will only be entitled to a small under seat bag.
However, an easyJet flight attendant told luxury platform Velloy that there is a sneaky way to bring more on the plane.
They said: “If you’re looking for smart ways to up your baggage allowance, switch out your handbag for a rucksack or at least a large tote bag.
“By doing so you’ll have enough room in your normal bag, along with much more, whether that’s extra clothes or snacks for the flight.”
A rucksack will also squash down, making it much easier to fit under the seat than a suitcase with wheels.
Some frequent travellers also claim that airline staff are less likely to notice an oversized rucksack.
A flight attendant also shared a tip for travellers who want to try and score a free upgrade on their flight.
