Ryanair responds to customer with genius extra luggage idea

One of the biggest problems when going on holiday is working out how to fit all your possessions into the airline's tight luggage restrictions. Anyone who has flown with Ryanair knows what a struggle it can be to avoid the extra charges that come with wanting to carry on more bags.

But journalist Bobbi Hadgraft has come up with a genius method of potentially taking more with you. She tweeted a picture of a pair of black cargo trousers covered with tiny pockets plastered all over the front - and it seemed to strike a chord with fellow passengers hailing the find, reports Leicestershire Live.

Many travellers try their best to avoid paying for the extra baggage charge by wearing more clothing while on the flight. Ryanair permits one small bag on each flight and more baggage can cost up to £59.99.

"Wearing these trousers next time I travel," Bobbi said. After sharing the travel hack 'get-around', Bobbi tagged the budget airline - known for its witty remarks on Twitter - and the response was perfect.

The airline including a screenshot of the same designer trousers from MJB (Marc Jacques Burton) that were listed for a whopping £1,280 on the website. Ryanair jibed: "'£1,280?' Just pay for a bag, Bobbi."

Although, Bobbi felt the purchase of the trousers would make a good "investment". She responded: "Currently have 15 flights booked on the app. This would be an investment."

Many people fled to the comments to have their say. One person said "It's an investment." Another user added: "Cheaper than paying all of your hidden fees to be fair."

While a third said: "Get to the airport 5 months early to get through security by the time they've searched your pockets and all." Someone else commented: "Hope I'm not behind you in security when they ask you to empty all your pockets."
