A SAVVY passenger dodged an airline’s luggage charge by posting her belongings instead.
Laura Poole flew from Bristol to Glasgow on Sunday and would’ve had to pay £30 to take her clothes.
But she swerved the baggage charge, which was more than the cost of her £25 flight.
The 33-year-old cleverly packed a sports bag with most of the clothes she was taking on her trip.
Laura then shoved it in a Lidl carrier bag and dropped it off at an InPost locker.
She sent the parcel three days in advance 380 miles from Bristol to Dundee, where she was travelling to after landing in Glasgow.
The postage cost Laura just £2.29, roughly the price of a cup of coffee.
And the parcel was delivered to a Tesco Express locker a short walk from her hotel in Dundee.
She joked that she was “quietly protesting baggage fees”.
In a post on social media, she wrote: “I’m flying Bristol to Glasgow on Sunday. My flight cost £25… cabin baggage fees £30. That’s more than my flight.
“Can I afford baggage fees? Absolutely.
“Will I pay them? F*** no! (On principle)
“Packed up my gym bag with 60% of the clothes I’m taking, shoved it in a Lidl bag, then dropped it off at an Inpost locker to be posted up to Dundee and will arrive at the Tesco Express near my hotel the day I arrive, £2.29!
“And I have one less bag to carry. I did this at the end of last year too.
“It’s so good! I’m quietly protesting baggage fees.”
Laura was hailed for her smart travelling and attracted thousands of comments on social media.
One person said: “This is genius! I’m flying to Edinburgh and I hate sleeping without my own pillow. I’ll be posting myself some clothes that I can miss for a few days.”
Another wrote: “Omg Laura. This is brilliant.”
A third said: “You are so smart well done.”
