- Disguise a carry-on as a pillow. If you don't mind carrying a pillow with stuff in the middle of your flight, @nolimitua found a loophole for extra luggage that doesn't fit in the suitcase: use a zippered pillowcase and you can fill it with some of your clothes to use the space in your suitcase for something else.
