Baggage The Blues and How To Avoid Last Minute Anxiety
Ideas on how travel applications can help users save money and travel stress free.
A friend and I took EasyJet from Amsterdam to Nice. One of us had a backpack and the other had a Trolley. We thought both of our luggages would fit the size requirement mentioned in the ticket because we’d carried those in many trips before without a problem. At the last minute of boarding, Easyjet charged us 60 euros for the Trolley bag and let the backpack go even though the later was larger in size. The logic given was that Trolleys have hard shell and wheels which are not flexible to fit in but the backpack can be squeezed in. Airlines mention the conditions clearly at the time of booking a ticket but few, like us, still missed it. And it costs thrice as expensive to buy extra baggage at the time of boarding than before.
