We’ve all been there – staring at a tiny cabin bag, trying to figure out how to fit in everything we think we need for a weekend away. With stricter airline luggage rules and rising fees, packing smart has become a necessity – not just a preference. Low-cost airlines are tightening hand luggage restrictions even further, typically allowing only one small bag per passenger that fits under the seat in front.
