Orphanage Donations

Does anybody know what the deal is with asking the airline to fly the extra baggage out at no extra cost?? I only sent the email with the orphanage link out to my colleagues at work about 5 hours ago, and I already have 10 A4 notepads, 5 packs of crayola crayons, playing cards, pens, hairbrushes.....................I think I'm going to have quite a bit of stuff to bring, so any advice on this would be gratefully recieved.

Cheers,
Clare.

There are various posts on here, I think Balkan are allowing, Easyjet aren't and Thompson are hit and miss.

re: Orphanage Donations

Booked with Crystal, so I think that falls under the Thompson/TUI group. O.K, cheers.

re: Orphanage Donations

You need to call them/email and get written confirmation. Hope you're lucky with them x

re: Orphanage Donations

Hi Clare,
Trying to get in touch with crystal about this myself.
If you get anywhere will you let me know, i'll do the same.Cheers

re: Orphanage Donations

I'll email them and let you know what I find out

re: Orphanage Donations

How awful. The bulgarians are a deprived bunch, but let me ask you when you last collected for your local childrens home????
Charity starts at home and I suggest you give locally instead of Bulgaria

re: Orphanage Donations

Pretty sure our childrens homes have heating !!!!!!
I also give at home too. Don't actually see your problem.

re: Orphanage Donations

Gosh Tamara, a slightly blinkered attitude I feel! I, like Debbie, also give to a host of charities at home, and although I appreciate that in a society of free speech you are entitled to your own opinions, equally I'm entitled to give to whoever the heck I feel I want to give to. Compare the conditions of your local childrens home to that of the one in Stoikite, and then tell me who you feel is most in need of urgent support and donations??

Am off my soap box now

if your flighing from doncaster sheffield airport, I know someone on the site contacted them directly and they gave them extra baggage, might be worth a try, with other airports.
