A RYANAIR passenger has revealed how to save up to £50 on your flights without skipping the baggage – and people have been stunned by the clever tip.
Tiktok user Clóda Scanlon shared a video explaining how you can save money when you book your flights through the Ryanair app.
She began by booking her flights as normal, putting in the location, dates and number of passengers.
The app then gave her the option of adding priority boarding, a cabin bag and a 10kg bag, which cost her €21 per person, per journey.
The end total came to €192.76. However, instead of progressing through to the payment section of the app, she opted to go for the airline’s Value Fare instead of the Regular Fare the app promoted.
Value Fare comes with one small cabin bag whereas Regular Fare comes with priority boarding and two cabin bags.

When Clóda picked the Value Fare, the app took off the €21 bags she had previously added as she was no longer entitled to bags.
But when she clicked through to the next page, the app offered her the chance to add the same perks she would have got with the Regular Fare – priority boarding, a cabin bag and a 10kg bag – but this time for €13, which was €8 cheaper than last time.
She added the bags and went to the final payment stage and the price had dropped from €192.76 to €133.56 – saving €59.20 (£49.70).
The TikToker, who uses the handle @orangeobviously, said: “I almost paid €192 and instead for the exact same flights and exact same baggage, I’m only going to pay €133.”
“Go small bag, Value Fare, and then go through to the end. The same baggage was almost 50 per cent less.”
The video has been watched 980,000 times and received hundreds of comments from people who were blown away by the tip.
One person wrote: “Omg I just saved £50-60 off my family holiday! Game changer.”
Another put: “I do this all the time. It has saved me so much money over the years.”
Someone else said Ryanair was ‘tricking’ customers by changing the price of the added luggage. They wrote: “I always do this too – they trick so many people the other way.”
Another person agreed and wrote: “I noticed this completely by accident when booking my last flight with them. Couldn’t believe how sneaky they are.”
