I'm not embarrassed to admit that I fly ULCCs somewhat frequently (ok fine maybe I'm a little embarrassed because it means none of you are my friends
). Bli ayin hara I have never had any big issues with them and I usually travel with more stuff than is really allowed.
I flew out of Trenton yesterday and for the first time I was told that my suit bag counted as a bag and I needed to pay $99 to bring it on. I just put my suit on to avoid paying and then they asked me to size my backpack (also the first time I ever had to). Everything fit after leaving behind some dirty laundry
. (It was also the first time I was told that my pillow would count as a bag
)
With my Go Wild Pass starting soon I was thinking of better ways to bring everything I need with me without having to pay. I was thinking If I had some sort of coat that had lots of massive pockets I could bring more stuff while still following the rules. I looked around online and found this:

Does anyone know of a good alternative?
The top 3 things I liked about it were
-It had a lot of really big pockets. It's not one of those things that say 923 pockets but 99% of those pockets are useless
-It looks like a nice coat that I wouldn't mind wearing around
-It comes with a bag that you can fit the coat into if you don't want to wear it
