Does RyanAir weigh the hand luggage from Liverpool

flossytrip

Hi
I am flying to Oslo Torp Norway from Liverpool on Wed, does anyone know whether they weigh hand luggage. Whenever I fly from East Midlands they don't but I don't want to presume that Liverpool is the same. I'm only going for 4 days so I don't want to pay for hold luggage but I want to be able to take my friends kids some presents and although my hand luggage fits the dimensions i've just weighed it and it is 13 kg - oops.
Thanks for your help.

Never assume anything and then you'll be fine.

They tend not to weigh bags but they do tend to measure it size wise at the gate.

Many thanks. As it is within the dimensions I think i'll risk it, i'll just sort out before I go the stuff that takes it over the 10kg that I don't mind loosing or can fit in my pockets in case they do decide to weigh it, at least that way i'll be prepared. I normally stick to their limits but found some toys I couldn't resist for the kids lol

I travel 4 times a month with Ryanair,with hand luggage only and i have never seen them weigh hand luggage,but they hover like hawks looking for oversize or more than one bag,if you check in a suitcase then it is very possible they will weigh your hand luggage as well........wear a coat or fishing type waistcoat with very large pockets and put some of the small but heavy items in this,either before you get caught or after..............I carry 2 netbooks with chargers and other heavy items in my waistcoat and take it off for the x-ray belt with absoluteley no problems.

I have had my hand luggage weighed at Londonderry all 5 kg. of it in a very small bag.

This is interesting - so you're not even allowed a handbag as well as your 10kg luggage? It's been years since I flew with Ryan Air - they weren't quite the same budget charge for everything airline in those days I remember blagging A LOT of excess suitcase weight and hand baggage once!

You are not even allowed a carry bag with goods purchased at the airport in addition to your one piece of hand luggage. With Ryanair One mean One. Play the game or suffer the pain - throw something away or pay the £40 (I think) fee top have it transferred to checked baggage.
