You're absolutely right, this is unacceptable. No one wants to accept responsibility for saying something that someone else might say is incorrect. All you need is it in writing in your tour ops/airlines T&Cs and show that at check in and you shouldnt have a problem or face any extra costs.Mekka wrote:This is no reason for airlines to email one set of weights and dimensions, state another on their sites and then have a different view at the check in desk.
I did read the weight limits. They didn't mention that it was only one bag per person.
I have sought confirmation and found differing information. When I have phoned I have been told that I can't have a straight answer because it depends on 'security'. So I ring the airport. They say security restrictions are clearly stated, anything exceptional to that is down to the airline who won't answer my question.

I can now confirm that crystals 15kg ski bag policy is being enforced.
The guy in front of me weighed in at 25kg and was charged £40 extra.
Mine weighed in at 16 and was let through. Both of us were told the limit is now 15kg. But it seems they use common sense as mine was only just over.
The airline is Thomson.

Why would you not think the bag policy would not be enforced ..... it is an extra revenue stream :roll:
