No Need For The Luggage Fee

Being able to find discounted flights for short breaks away has become easy to come across with airlines such EasyJet and Ryanair offering great rates.

These rates unfortunately, can slowly increase after you have included the advised travel insurance and then the shocking ‘luggage fee’. Most low cost airlines now charge a fee for checking any luggage into the holds of their aircraft, although you’re offered a discounted fee when booking online.

Your cheap getaway starts to become a little expensive than you originally anticipated.

Travelling on a budget you would be trying to avoid the luggage fee, especially if you’re only away for a weekend break.
