Having problems working out the easiest way to travel with your ski/snowboard kit? Here I will discuss a few recommendations which will make the process simpler.
1) If paying for an additional bag, ensure that it's paid for as a sports bag and use all your supplementary weight allowance.
It certainly is not uncommon for you to want to purchase an extra bag if you are going for a extended ski holiday. If you do buy an extra bag, many airlines have discount rates if your extra bag is a snowboard bag. It's ordinarily about half of the normal additional bag charge.
Pay for the extra bag listed as a snowboard bag, then fill it to the top. You are likely to only have about 15 kg of actual snowboard items, so check to check out how much weight is authorized in your snowboard bag. Following that, put clothes and other things you would like, until your sports bag reaches the free allowance cap.
2) Print a copy of the luggage allowance policies
Be sure to bring a copy of the current baggage allowances whenever you fly on an airline. You will find that quite a few check in clerks will not even know their own baggage rules, particularly when you take advantage of discounts and other weight tricks with sports bags.
If they ever try to charge you extra, present them their own weight allowances, and don't forget that whenever flying to/from international locations, you're allowed to include bags based on international flight baggage limits. Don't allow the airline to charge you domestic fare charges.
3) Better not carry base cleaner, if you don't want to lose it
Base cleaner could possibly get confiscated at the airport. Don't bother to bring it! It's flammable, so even if it gets beyond security scans, it's unsafe to pack within your bags.
4) Never bring any baggage over 32 kg (70 lbs)
It is actually against the law for most airports to permit baggage over 32 kg, on account of safe practices and rules for the baggage handlers. Do not pack any luggage over 32 kg or the airline will most likely not permit you to check it in, even if you offer to pay for the extra weight.
5) Never forget to get bags and invoices tagged for the last destination
When travelling on multiple flights, in particular international to domestic transfers, never forget to get your bags tagged all the way up to your last destination. Whenever you check in to your first flight, ensure you tell them to tag your bags right through up to your final destination, and make certain that any supplementary bags or overweight payments you've paid has every destination listed on the invoice.
Check in employees could very well try to charge you additional fees and penalties at your various other destinations if the first flight check in failed to ticket your luggage for the entire journey. It is far from a pleasant conversation to have and you will end up needing to talk to a supervisor to have it fixed, so prevent missed tagging when possible.
