Going with TC to canada end of Feb, carrage was free but states skis only, but also states carrage allowance is 10kg as skis are about 6kg will be putting ski suit in with them to protect them

re: Thomas Cook Airlines

fill the bag up to your limit 99% of airport dont ask whats in them , they are more concerned with weight , plus you paid for 10kg use it .......my borad bag is always full to burtsing , never been asked to open it or asked whats in it in over 40 plus trips , with all airlines at all airports.. if they get arsey ask for a manager and say your not moving it always works , cos they have deadlines and dont want fuss over a small thing

re: Thomas Cook Airlines

Thanks for the replies guys!

Last year we sort of cheated cos we paid for 2 ski carriages which gave us 20kg & had a big bag with just 1 pair of skis & lots of clothes in but think i will have to buy a smaller bag this year at least. Just been looking for a new one on ebay so hopefully will get one to suit.

Cheers & hope everyone has a good hols wherever your going

Wouldn't like to think what would happen to the bindings if you didn't wrap something around them!

re: Thomas Cook Airlines

Exactly wheres me skis!!

I will still be putting something in with them even if its an old towel. If they make me take it out then I will get a signed letter from them stating that they made me so I can claim back from them if they get damaged.

People don't want to see me when I get angry I can tell you - not nice !!!

Why not Buy a sports tube. This will protect your skis and stop any hassle.

footfixer - don't really want to spend that sort of money on a 1 or 2 year thing, espcially when they're not even mine, they're my sons so he can do that in future if he's paying for it. That is when he's left college & got a f/t job !

Thanks anyway guys !!
