2 flights booked, one next week with EZY and one next month with RYR. To avoid the hold baggage charges, one has just purchased a new bag which will do trips up to 3 or 4 days and fit the bill as hand baggage. According to the respective airlines' websites, I have saved enough on not having hold baggage to more than pay for the bag.
Buy a bag to the full size of the cabin baggage limits and you won't need two bits of hand baggage, and it won't matter where you fly from. It's not rocket science chaps.
