TUI passengers are in for a treat this summer as they can bring four pieces of luggage onboardflightswithout any additional charges.
Every TUI traveller aged two and above is permitted to carry one piece of hand luggage on flights free of charge, provided it doesn't exceed 10kg and its dimensions don't exceed 55x40x20cm. In addition, passengers can also bring one small personal item onboard, such as a backpack, laptop bag or a handbag.
This must be compact enough to fit under the seat in front and not exceed 40x30x20cm. It comes afterRyanair passengers band together as staff charge woman £75 luggage fee.

For those who've booked a package holiday with TUI, a checked-in luggage allowance of at least 20kg per person is included. However, for flight-only bookings, checked-in luggage comes with an extra fee.
But there's good news for families travelling with infants - TUI is allowing up to two additional items of luggage on flights free of charge, reports the Express.
TUI permits passengers to check in a collapsible pushchair and a car seat into the hold at no extra cost on both package holidays and flight-only bookings. Although passengers do have the option of bringing pushchairs onboard, provided it doesn't exceed 50x40x20cm and weighs no more than 10kg. However, in this case, it will count as your large piece of hand luggage.
Infants under the age of two don't get a hand luggage allowance on TUI flights, so if you have a baby changing bag that you need to take with you, this will be counted as part of your 10kg free allowance.
TUI states: "If you're flying on a TUI flight (package or flight only), you can check in pushchairs and/or car seats into the hold for free. You can also bring your pushchair with you onboard, as long as it weighs less than 10kg, is no bigger than 55x40x20cm and has a hand luggage label provided during check-in.
"This'll count as your larger piece of hand luggage for an adult on the booking, meaning you can have this and one smaller piece of hand luggage that fits under the seat in front of you, with maximum dimensions 40x30x20cm.
"There's the option to use your pushchair at the airport and hand it to a member of staff at the gate before you board, but please make our ground staff aware when you check in as you'll need a label for this too.
"Just so you know, pushchairs and car seats will be returned on the luggage belt when you arrive, and there's occasionally a long walk between the aircraft and the luggage reclaim area. Any pushchairs need to be completely collapsible. Please note, if you're travelling with an infant under 2, they don't have a hand luggage allowance."
Every TUI aircraft features baby changing facilities situated within the loos, though travellers are encouraged to consult the cabin crew beforehand since amenities can differ based on the aircraft type. Children under two years old also don't receive meals during flights, meaning passengers must pack their own grub, although the carrier can warm baby milk bottles while airborne.
