A man recently made headlines for his unique approach to avoid overweight luggage charges at an airport. The passenger was spotted wearing his overweight blanket as clothing.
The man had reportedly packed several items in his checked luggage, causing it to exceed the weight limit allowed by the airline. In an effort to avoid the extra charges, he decided to wear the blanket as a makeshift coat, which helped him to distribute the weight of his belongings across his body.
The incident was captured on video and quickly went viral on social media, with many users praising the man’s creativity and resourcefulness. However, others criticized him for attempting to cheat the system and potentially posing a safety risk by wearing such a heavy item.
It is not clear whether the man was successful in his attempt to avoid the luggage charges, as the airline has not commented on the incident. Nevertheless, the viral video has sparked a conversation about the high fees charged by airlines for overweight luggage, and the lengths some passengers are willing to go to avoid them.
