A flight attendant has revealed a sneaky hack that could make your future plane journeys a lot more comfortable without paying anymore money.
Many people struggle to relax on budget airline seats with every extra inch of room you can get being a huge bonus as the mechanisms of a plane seat are a little confusing and unfortunately don't come with an instruction manual.
However, one Virgin Australia crew member has shared a clever travel trick you can use to try and get a little more room in the aisle seats.
The flight attendant explained there is a hidden button you can use where a little lever sits under the armrest. Once the latter has been lifted, you can push the lever to hold it in place.
This makes it much easier to get in and out of your seat and to get into more comfortable positions on the flight which may help you sleep on a longer flight, the Mirror reports.
You can also use it to move your seat back and create more space which stops carry-on bags catching on the way down the aisle.
The air hostess said: "Have you ever struggled with the aisle seat armrest? Struggle no more with this seat hack."
She captioned the video: "Like a pro" as it was shared onto the brand's verified TikTok account.
The video was an instant hit with impressed passengers who were ecstatic to be let in on the secret hack as they related to some of the issues that come with little space on a plane.
One user said: "The bag getting caught on the chair is so real." Another commented: "Life changed!"
A third exclaimed: "More people need to see this."
The politics of armrests are complex and many an argument has been had about who is entitled to which rest on a flight.
