Food and travel content creator Jazz shares her clever travel advice and tips on her TikTok account and her Instagram to help fellow travellers. Jazz recently detailed how she cleverly sneaks extra hand luggage onto the plane with her.

She told TikTok followers: "I have a few tricks that I do when travelling with only hand luggage."

Her main trick is hiding a bag of her belonging inside a duty free bag before flights.

Jazz explained: "Number one, I put a bag inside a bag. I usually go to Boots, Duty Free, one of those stores and get a bag because they (cabin crew) are not allowed to touch anything within something you've bought already in the airport."
