A holidaymaker has shared her 'number one' travel hack - and people can't believe they didn't think of it sooner. Content creator Ella Marie (@ellamariegill) shared the tip with her 120,000 TikTok followers. In a recent post, Ella told viewers she had 'the BEST hack for airports to save money + have the best time.'

In her video, she said: "My number one travel hack that most people don't know about is to book an airport lounge. They are normally about £20, and all your food, all your drink and even alcohol is included for literally cheaper than the price of one meal at the airport."

She added: "I'm currently at Oslo airport, so let's go and see what the lounge is like here. We have made it to the lounge. I'm very excited to see what this one's like.

"This one looks very nice. Start by getting a coffee, always get a cappuccino. This is the food selection, gonna get a bit of everything, I think.

"Get some pasta and get some meatballs, spicy tuna, my favourite, which is olives." Praising her meal, the blogger said: "This actually looks really good. And like I said, all alcohol is included. So they've got white wine, red wine, beer. They've even got prosecco. I'm gonna do a little prosecco."

"They've got a whole selection of bread, crackers, butters, and even a little cake section," Ella added. "Wow. It's low-key my dream selection of food. Actually pretty good. Plate is finished. I've seen that they have like a Pepsi Max refill machine, so I'm gonna go get one of those. Jack got a mini beer and I got another little prosecco."

Wrapping up her video, Ella said: "Jack is currently on his fourth plate, so he's definitely getting his money's worth. I'm gonna get some more food. I got one more plate. I got quite a lot of meatballs, a little bit of pasta, and a lot of olives. It's actually such a good combination.

"If we had bought everything that we've consumed so far, it would have come to way more than £20 a person. So this is such good value for money. I highly recommend." Replying to the video, a viewer said: "I can't believe I've actually never done this." Ella replied: "It's the best idea ever."

The tip was also recommended by travel creator @chloelawfordtravels. In a TikTok video, Chloe said: "An airport lounge would typically cost you between £30 to 45 per person.

"But there is a whole host of reasons why we love to use airport lounges, and the main one is the food and drink. If you're gonna get a meal and a pint out in the main area, it's gonna set you back £25 to £30 anyway, so why not spend that and go to a lounge?

"You get unlimited breakfast buffet, unlimited coffees, juice, everything you need. I always make the most of this. It's like three or four rounds of breakfast, even breakfast dessert. Plus there's a bar if you wanna get drinks. I mean, it's usually before 7:00am, but you do you. Also, it's just so nice to just sit in a nice, quiet area and wait for your flight."
