I have never had my skis weighed by BA (or Air Canada or Jet2). Would not risk it with Ryanair.

Pabs, things may be different this winter, as BA now charge for ski carriage unless it's your only piece of luggage (apparently)!

right i have been going through some figures here and either i am goign to have to pay £120 excess baggage for my skis or only take 2 pairs which leaves me with an awkward decsision!

Have looked at courier companies and if they can quote me anything it is in the hundreds!!

anyone had to do this before?

ps.
sorry for slightly jumping the thread!!

My first question would be why do you need three pairs of skis?

because there is no ski out there that does everything you want-im there for 4 months and if it dumps with snow (which i really hope it does) then ill want my wider off piste skis, if it doesnt ill stay on piste where they are rubbish and want my on piste skis. If i want to get better at jumps in the park (which i do) then ill need my park skis

simple!

interesting link though!
