Bag packing headache eased with cabin crew help

Of course there are the obvious ones such as rolling up socks and putting them into shoes, and putting anything breakable in the middle, but there are additional tips that might just come in handy on holiday.

Joe Bates, flight service manager at the airline said: "Avoid taking pull along bags and hand luggage and instead use a rucksack…its more practical as your hands will be free to handle your ticket, passport and other essentials.

Cabin service supervisor Victoria Lewis offers excellent advice for those hitting shopping hotspots such as Paris or Rome: "Always pack an extra bag, flat packed so that you can use this to fill with any new purchases."

Adding to that, Frankie Harris, also a cabin service supervisor says: "Carry a pashmina and travel in lots of light layers which are easy to remove or put on and this also saves space in your packed luggage."

Just one extra thing. Don't forget your toothbrush!
