What size?!

Just grab your bag and let’s go! Ehm well… which one? :D Sounds familiar? Flight is tomorrow, with a hand baggage only, but no idea what size bag can I carry on the plane? Well let’s find out! It looks like all companies decided to go wild with the size allowance and number of bags!

Another great example that size does matter and it cost money too! Cruel world… Below are a cabin baggage allowances for 3 low-cost Airlines in EU plus some useful links to help you pack quicker. I was going to update this on regular basis but maybe there wont be a need for it soon :) Fingers crossed! Apparently there are some rumours from IATA (International Air Transport Association), about new rules for the hand baggage sizes. Some largest airlines of the world have already agreed with new rules. Among those airlines are also Lufthansa and Emirates Airlines.

Interesting right? More about this topic on the IATA website OR check out this one Can a Universal Luggage Size Make the Carry-on Process Better? – Yes it can! We all look forward to it :) I will follow this topic and update once I find out more. In the meantime we have to measure.

Do you have a ruler?

Obviously not everyone has a ruler, measuring tape or any kind of measuring equipment at hand BUT we all have our beloved smartphones! So be smart and have explore some FREE apps that can help you measure: for iPhone OR for Android – they are a bit tricky at first and you may want to buy a full version to have all features, but in general I think these are much better than guessing with your fingers :)

Have a look below if you about to fly & enjoy your trip and don’t forget to pack a smile & a credit card! Bon voyage mon amies!

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.” ― A Hat Full of Sky by Terry Pratchett, author & journalist


myMood movie: The Aviator – IMDb rating 7.5/10
Talking about travel & flying in particular The Aviator movie keeps coming to mi mind – A biopic depicting the early years of legendary director and aviator Howard Hughes career, from the late 1920s to the mid-1940s. The higher he rises, the farther has to fall. Check out the trailer & watch it ASAP if you haven’t seen it yet! Shame on you :)
