    Lots of airlines allow duty free purchases in addition to their published carry-on allowances. As OTB says, why simply contact Jet2 to find out what their policy is?

    Yes but one operative told me that 'hand baggage' did not include goods purchased in the duty free after check-in but the other operative said it did.

    It's not the number 'one' that's the issue, it's what constitutes 'baggage' (not 'luggage'). One Jet2 operative has told me that baggage does not include duty free airport purchases the other that it does
