A Ryanair passenger has explained how they were able to freely sneak extra luggage on board a flight without paying extra.
The traveller shared the hack in a viral TikTok clip and carried what appeared to be a regular travel pillow in an airport.
But upon reaching their destination, clothing was quickly removed from the pillowcase - as it was used to store extra luggage which could not fit into their bag, Glasgow Live reports.
All Ryanair fare prices include a small personal bag, which must fit under the seat in front of them, according to their website.
Carriers including handbags, rucksacks, and small luggage bags fall under this grouping.
But an extra cost must be paid in order to take on any more luggage.
By disguising their extra baggage as a pillow, the traveller was able to take additional luggage without paying a fee.
Since being posted, the TikTok has gained nearly 600,000 likes and thousands of comments from users sharing their thoughts.
After going viral, the clip caught the attention of Ryanair themselves, who commented: "Bestie PLEASEEEE what is this?"
The person who shared the clip then responded: "Uhm... Hope we're still friends?"
Another TikTok user wrote: "Yeah I've worked at the airport, they can see it all in the X-ray we just don't care."
"Course they know, it goes through the scanner," agreed a second.
"Ryanair deffo having your picture at every check-in desk," a third joked.
A fourth commented: "Thank you! You're my god!"
"Haha this is brilliant," echoed a fifth.
A sixth simply said: "Genius."
