Ryanair has issued a warning to holidaymakers over its strict holiday baggage rules for those heading off on holidays.
The budget carrier has reminded customers that the size of this baggage is being 'strictly enforced'.
Anything over the maximum allowed size of 40x20x25cm could be refused at the boarding gate, or where available, placed in the hold of the aircraft for a fee of up to €70.
A statement on the Ryanair website states: "Extra/oversized Baggage will be refused at the boarding gate, or where available, placed in the hold of the aircraft for a fee at the level set out in our Regulations. Ryanair accepts no responsibility for oversized or excess Baggage which is refused at the boarding gate and subsequently abandoned by you.
"You must adhere strictly to the baggage allowance on your booking. If your small bag or 10kg cabin bag does not fit in the baggage sizers, which are placed at every boarding gate, we will tag your bag and place it in the aircraft hold subject to payment of a gate bag fee. You can collect it on the baggage carousel at your arrival airport".
Some travellers have been shocked when having to pay extra charges due to their luggage being above the allowed size.
Fees vary depending on the route and travel dates selected.
