Varadkar examines Ryanair’s bag policy

Ryanair’s one carry-on bag policy is coming under pressure with Tourism Minister Leo Varadkar saying he is considering what action to take.

A Spanish consumers body is taking the low-cost airline to court over the issue, saying limiting hand luggage is against the law.

However, the Irish company may be considering changing its policy and has started a pilot scheme at Manchester airport where passengers are allowed to take their airport purchases on board in a second bag.
