    I'm flying on my own with Ryanair from Bournemouth to Malaga on 6 June.
    I'd love to 'road test' (or maybe it should be 'plane test') one of the jackets.
    Any means of beating the budget airline carriers attempts of extracting extra money from the poor passengers has to be a winner.
    I'd happily do the photo & review afterwards & post it on your site.
    Fingers crossed that I get chosen...........

    My fiancee and myself are both flying from Belfast to Portugal on 20th June with Easyjet. We would happily look like S.W.A.T. members wearing a flak jacket to save on baggage! :-)
  • I'm flying Ryan air (robbing air) to Norway on the 30th May.
    Last time I got charged £120 extra for baggage allowance! this time I will be wearing my work boots, greasy overalls etc to prevent this. A jacket with big pockets would go down great.

  • Travelling on easyjet to germany in june. There are 8 of us heading to climb germanys biggest mountain. We have already gone shares on bags to keep costs down would be great to see how much kit we can wear!

    I'm flying with Ryanair from Stansted to Sevilla in the middle a June with the wife for a few days and to Stansted-Girona/Girona-Luton in the summer. More than happy to give them trial on both trips because if I combine one with the Flylite medium case (800gm) I should have more than enough room.

  • hi my wife myself and our 4 year old daughter are all flying bmi baby to pallma on the 6th june.

    i would love to review the jacket as everytime we fly,we have to swap luggage from our suitcase to our hand luggage and vice versa to prevent ridiculas extra charges.

    many thanks
  • :j:j:j I would LOVE the opportunity to trial and review this jacket. I am going to Ibiza with my teenage daughters next month and have only hand luggage (Monarch state this is 5kgs only!). I will happily stuff it with all my holiday wear and take photos en route.:o
