Airport Madness: Destroy Your Suitcase to Save 75 Euros! Genius or Insane?
Ever thought it’s easier to destroy your suitcase than pay extra fees at the airport? Well, one passenger just proved it! A viral TikTok video shows a clever traveler on the British low-cost airline EasyJet removing the wheels from his suitcase to avoid a 75-euro fee for carry-on luggage that didn’t meet size requirements.
How Did It Start?
Low-cost airlines are notorious for strict carry-on baggage rules. If your bag is too big, prepare to pay extra. But this passenger decided not to pay the fee. Instead, he ingeniously removed the wheels from his suitcase, making it acceptable as carry-on. Sure, it meant destroying his suitcase, but he saved 75 euros.
Reactions Online
The video became a total hit with over 7 million views! People are divided — some praise his cleverness, others wonder if it was worth destroying a 20-euro suitcase to save 75 euros. TikTok comments are hilarious: “Hey, your backpack is too big!” and “Better destroy your suitcase than pay the fee!”
What Does This Say About Low-Cost Airlines?
This situation shines a light on the absurdity of baggage rules at low-cost airlines. Strict size controls and high fees for every extra gram often frustrate travelers. Is this just another proof that the rules are too harsh and passengers find creative ways to bypass them?
Smart or Crazy?
Destroy your suitcase to avoid a fee? Sounds like a comedy plot, but it’s real life. On one hand, saving 75 euros is significant; on the other, the suitcase is ruined and you might need to buy a new one. Still, in a world where every saving on travel counts, this trick went viral and became the number one topic on social media.
Conclusion
This passenger showed that cleverness can sometimes beat the rules. Would you destroy your suitcase to save on airport fees? Or is it better to pay and keep your stuff? Share your thoughts, maybe you have even crazier travel hacks!
