Here's a Shocker: Ryanair Will Let You Pack More, if You Pay More

At this point, after refusing to engage in social media and then the months of talking about a pay-to-pee fee, the last thing anyone could expect of European low-cost airline Ryanair are options. But alack and alas, Ryanair is surprising again by adding a second choice for checked baggage, just in case you've overpacked and exceed their 15kg (33 lb) limit.

Up until now, Ryanair has allowed one free carry-on of no more than 10kg (22lbs) and checked luggage at €/£15 for up to 15kg per piece. If your bag was heavier than this, it would either be outright denied or you'd have to repack it into two checked bags and pay the double fee for them.

The new plan keeps the €/£15 for up to 15kg, but also adds the option to pay €/£25 for a checked bag weighing 20kg (44 lb). So go ahead, buy those wooden clogs in Amsterdam and don't fret about having to leave them behind for some Ryanair employee to take home to their kids. Or just pack extra-light and avoid all of their baggage fees completely, as we recently did.
