Close doesn't shoot any rabbit: HOW TO MOVE EFFICIENTLY WITH RYANAIR

Hello Shoot Rabbit!

Today I will show the world how one can efficiently get as much sh*t as possible on one run with Ryanair. As I have (half) successfully moved with them in-between 4 countries in the last 5 years, I consider myself an expert. Or Jedi. Or master. I like master. Lets go with "Master-of-moving-sh*t-with-Ryanair"

1. Weigh your luggage

Very important as we want to use every allowable gram without getting overweight and pay ridiculous high fees. Easiest way to do this is to weigh yourself, then grab the bag in question and calculate the difference.

Then you realise this is the heaviest you have ever been. Then you cry a bit.

Then you have an ice-cream.

2. Heavy boring stuff first

For me this is stuff like: cutting mat, toolbox, rulers, cutters blah blah blah for people with a more normal field of study/work/hobbies that would probably be... books? Because these are the things that will otherwise be left to the last minute and then you will have no space pr weigh allowance left.

Shoes also comes in here.

3. Fill out stuff

Big big light stuff like duvet and pillows are perfect fillers for the bag with the heavy stuff. They don't ramble around, insulate the other stuff, and usually also fall into the category of stuff I forget until the last minute.

4. What to wear: shoes

Wear your heavy shoes so don't yo have to pack them. Also pack light shoes to have on the way back. (if you have the luxury to fly twice like me).

Mmm. Italian leather...

5. Fill your pockets

Use a coat with many pockets so you can fill them with even more sh*t. This sh*t should include a bag of some sorts. Why? Keep reading.

6. What not to wear

You know those boots you always have with you, you do really love them, but actually haven't worn them for 2 years?

LEAVE THEM BEHIND, THERE IS NO TIME.

7. Handluggage

Three rules:

1. Roll everything

2. Make sure those rolls are tight.

3. Bag with liquids handy.

I prefer to have my liquids in my hand-luggage as I seem to need them every time I put them in my checked-in bag. They also leek/explode. I like to keep an eye on them.
