Woman wears 2.5kg clothes to avoid excess baggage fee at airport

(Dunya News) – Philippine woman Gel Rodriguez whose baggage exceeded the weight limit at the airport wore her clothes weighing 2.5kg to avoid paying fee.

The woman posted a picture on Facebook, dressed in three visible pairs of trousers and seven tops and wrote, “When the airline staff at the check in counter said: ‘EXCESS NA PO KAYO, 7kg lang po allowed na hand carry.’ Me: NO PROBLEM! *from 9kg to 6.5kg baggage #ExcessBaggageChallengeAccepted.”

However, when asked if she would do it again, Rodriguez told, “Maybe not. It was really hot. I don’t recommend other people do it.”
