Heart-pounding anxiety at the departure gate is a sensation we have all experienced: frantically forcing an overstuffed suitcase into metal size checkers or reluctantly layering on bulky clothing to dodge surprise airport fees. Fortunately, if you’re travelling with Jet2 this summer, we’ve got everything you need to know about the airline’s luggage restrictions so you can avoid getting caught out.
As someone who frequently attempts to compress a week’s holiday wardrobe into a solo backpack, strict baggage parameters are my personal summer bugbear. Ground crews are increasingly meticulous during gate boarding checks, meaning a single protruding wheel can result in your luggage being checked into the hold for an unexpected fee. So to avoid extra charges, it pays to know the rules.
