This is the first of my travel-tip videos. One thing that is currently a problem for budget travelling is the extra charge introduced by including checked luggage. To avoid this and waiting around in the airport, it’s much better to fly only with hand luggage when you can. In this short and comical video I show how you can bring a lot more than you think! If you enjoy it please leave a comment, check out my other videos and subscribe to my blog at www.irishpolyglot.com to see more!
cool but did you know you can also take a laptop bag or purse with your carry on. ive gon on trips where i bring the max size luggage and a back pack and when they ask i just say its for my laptop and camera things and they have always let me go. idk about international fights but i figure its the same.
hi im flying with thomson in a few days do you know the weight limits of the hand baggage im planning on taking a backpack so i think it would be ok size wise
i have to say, u r a dork, but pretty funny. cute tips.
Awesomeness, why didn’t I think of that lol!
these are great tips i always backpack just like that no point of checking luggage people could save a lot more money on their vacations if all they did was just did pack a backpack but for some reason people like to check luggage not me though
Bravo Benny! Tá na leideanna sin fÃorúsáideach. Mi piacono moltissimo tutti questi video que hai fatto. I bet Michael O’Leary will start wearing his bathtowel on his back now too!
I should add that this is much more important nowadays; I did this all the time with Ryanair, but technically they never really checked me; it was just getting through security. Now they make sure that your bag fits in the space and that you don’t have a second bag (including Duty Free!!!!!) AS YOU GET ON THE PLANE.
I applied these methods and several others, that I’ll share in another video some day, a few weeks ago moving house with all my stuff from Ireland to Prague, flying Ryanair
I’ve got some good practise, so I can take everything out in 10 seconds, and I don’t hold the queue up at all
Keep in mind that everything in your jacket pockets can stay there since you are taking your jacket off anyway. I usually have big items (like books) in my trouser pockets since they come out quicker, and smaller items (keys etc.) in my jacket pockets, just when passing through security.
As I take my jacket off, the towel comes with it of course.
how long did it take you to get through the security check, with all that stuff in your pockets?
or just get an old woman 2 pack 4 u
Could be quite embarrasing with the towel around your shoulders in case you are told to undress at check-in …
Haha, I ‘ve done something similar. I only wished I had brought an ekstra bag to put all these items in when on the plane. It’s a little uncomfortable with everything in your pockets. And hot with two sweaters and two t-shirts under the jacket. You can’t bring batteries onboard now which confuses me a bit regarding laptops, camera, cellphone, porable dvd players and portable games..Anyone know the rules?
wow
did you really do that?
haha good idea

Oh, I love your videos, man! So you’re a hit, huh?!

hahahaha, funny… great actually!!
hehe
hahaha excellent comment. NOT
hahaha nice idea. NOT
HA HA HA hahaha nice.
Please read previous comments. This is only necessary when going through security. You can put your things in the overhead compartment once you board the plane.
wouldn’t that be uncomfortable for the long flight?
What camera did you use to film that? you know, the one you said you would bring on your trip?
Great tips BTW.
i travel alot and this does work..the only problem i have when i do this is i hate stuffing my pants with items other then my cell phone wallet smokes and a lighter..but other then that good stuff nice pack lol
I WAS travelling somewhere hot – Slovakia in the summer time. The jacket is just my “second handluggage” case. I only wear it when going through security and it comes off and goes in a plastic bag once I’m through
