check with your tour op.. most airlines now will charge you for booking in 2 bags ... you cannot take boots in cabin .. they are apparantly a dangerous item.. funny .. never heard of a high jacker using them .... airports sell you a bottle of vodka thou ???????????
We went to boro in Dec, and didn't pay for extra carriage for our boots. I called Thomas Cook before we flew and they said we'd have to pay so we just kept our mouths shut when booking in.
I was planning on taking mine as hand luggage and after reading this post called balkan who said i couldn't. Don't intend paying the £17 so will put them in my suitcase and fill my boot bag with some clothes!
