According to TikTok users, this trick has been successfully tested and allowed them to bring heavy bags on board.
However, there are concerns that this travel hack could pose risks to airline staff and fellow passengers.
An individual on TikTok, with the username bed.sweater, shared a video of their travel hack on August 17. In the video, the person uses their foot to support the luggage scale while weighing their bags.
The video’s caption expresses surprise at the success of the hack. However, the video does not provide specific details about the location or airline involved.
The caption also mentions that the airport staff were aware of the individual’s actions and seemed to be fine with it. The TikTok video has gained over 2.2 million views.
Some TikTok users praised the individual for their clever hack and shared their own successful attempts at tricking the luggage scale.
However, there were others who had less luck and were asked to step back when attempting the same trick.
Critics of the hack expressed concern that it jeopardizes flight safety and the well-being of other passengers.
Additionally, there were concerns that the trick could potentially harm airline staff during the baggage handling process.
