She puts on over 13 pounds of clothes to avoid paying airline baggage fees

Airline-baggage hacks are everywhere on social media, but this particular one just didn’t fly. Jetstar Airways fined Adriana Ocampo and Emily Altamura $40 after they tried to avoid paying the airline’s baggage fee by putting on more than 13 pounds of clothing. The 19-year-olds were on their way back to Adelaide, Australia, from Melbourne after a girls’ trip. Both of their bags were way over the weight limit of 15 pounds, so they decided to wear their clothes to avoid paying an additional fee. Unfortunately, their plan was a flop. An airlines spokesperson told the women: “Sorry, we can’t let you on the flight like this.”
