Hi
Ryanair customers can now take extra luggage with them on flights if they bring a particular bag.
The budget airline has announced that customers can take a Trunki for their 'free' small bag on flights, even though it exceeds the regulation size by 50 per cent.
A Trunki is a ride-on suitcase for kids. At 46 x 21 x 31cm, it was designed to fit in the overhead locker, and as something children can wear as a backpack when they're not riding on it.
Ryanair has now updated its Travelling with Children page to confirm that Trunkis are allowed at no extra cost.
"Yes, children (2-11 years) are permitted to carry one Trunki case, which may exceed these dimension limits of the small bag (40 x 20 x 25cm). As well as Trunki cases, other brands with similar dimensions are also accepted on board," it reads.
"Your youngster can sit on the case and roll alongside you, saving you the effort of carrying them in your arms alongside managing all your luggage. These types of cases are also small and lightweight, which makes them eligible as a carry-on for most airlines."
