Ryanair: We’re victims of our own niceness

Ryanair has become a victim of its own “niceness” as bosses claim toddlers are “wheeling” luggage onto flights in order to beat the baggage allowance.

As it stands, Ryanair customers can carry on one bag not exceeding 55cm x 40cm x 20cm in size and 10kg in weight, as well as a smaller one such as a handbag or briefcase.

However, the airline’s chief financial officer, Neil Sorahan, has said Ryanair is “very generous” with its cabin baggage allowance and claimed that people are taking “advantage”.
