Our Flight is at 6.15 and looks ok at the moment. Suitcases are rather full and over weight..... Never mind, this is the season of goodwill so maybe they will let us off!!!! not......

re: Gatwick Airport

Who are you flying with?
I hate the whole luggae weight thing... especially in America when you think "I must weigh half what that fat American does, so why do i have to pay for my bags being over-weight and he doesn't have to pay for himself being over weight???"

thats not nice, they do sometimes have to pay for two seats though. how come a few clothes weigh so much thats what I want to know.

re: Gatwick Airport

totally agree, we havent even got ski boots and we are struggling. Flying wth Bulkan Air.... That should be interesting as well........

re: Gatwick Airport

you want to check your tickets as well as last year with thomsons the weight limit was 15kg not 20 must be to allow for the boots and skis and to make a bit of extra money. problem this time of the year is plane will be full so they will charge if over weight.

re: Gatwick Airport

I flew with BG air last year and they left our luggage at Gatwick, it eventually got to Boro the day before we came home! Luckily our skies and boots turned up so we could still ski,but i've now learned what you can live without for a week!! (ps Contact lenses are NOT something you can live without - especially if you didn't pack your glasses!!)
Hope i have better luck this year!
