Savvy traveller avoids luggage fines on budget airlines with her 'go-to' perfectly sized cabin case


If you're caught out with a cabin bag that's too big, there's a hefty fine to pay - but Rachel Pugh has found a case that fits on all the budget airlines she's flown with so far. Phew...

A few years back, I thought I'd hit the jackpot when I scored £50 return flights from Liverpool Airport to Barcelona with a carry-on case. EasyJet uses baggage sizers at its check-in desks and airport gates and passengers may be asked to place their bag inside to prove that it fits. Jet2 also brings good news for travellers preferring hand luggage bags facilitated with wheels or handles, ensuring that the entire case doesn't exceed the dimensions of 56x45x25cm.
