British man wears 10 layers of clothing to dodge baggage fee; gets barred from two flights

Hawaii also tweeted a private response from EasyJet, which explained why he was rejected from their flight.

"The captain for your EasyJet flight was made aware of what happened the previous day. Because of this, the captain took the decision to offload you," the message read, adding he would not be refunded for this reason.

Hawaii did get a refund for the flight, however, according to a recent update.

There have been reports in the past of passengers encountering problems with excess baggage moments before boarding.

In 2015, a member of the Scottish boyband Rewind reportedly became violently ill and fainted on a flight to London from Glasgow after he put on 12 layers of clothing to avoid check-in fees.
