Baggage Allowance

[langley]

Hi

Just a quickie !!

Does anyone know if children get the full bag allwance when they have bought a seat??

We are flying with B.A.

As far as we know, if you've paid for the seat you get a full allowance.

BA like most scheduled airlines have a 32kg / 70lb allowance per person. You may wanna check to see if your credit card is empty before you go.

both of our children had the full baggage allowance when we flew with BA in 2002 [8D][8D]

Yes they do, if you have a seat then you get the allowance, mind you going to Florida we take
hardly anything near the allowance anyway. Theres no need to pack loads of clothes as you
wont need that many

Off the subject a bit but still on baggage, whats the dimensions of the bags that you are allowed as hand luggage, we have had enough of the scrum at the baggage claim and just want to take cabin bags with us, but not sure if all airlines are the same, anyone know?

i think they are all the same Alan. seem to remember a bag gauge at checkin to make sure your hand luggage is not too big. only allowed 5 kg aswell ( i think ).

Thanks Mark

We are going to give it a try this time, just taking hand luggage only, its only us, and as we have clothes at the villa, and all toiletries and almost everything else can be bought there, anyway, we normally take out far to much, and at Gatwick coming back this time was a nightmare, with about 4 planes all landing at the same time, the shoving and pushing at Baggage claim, and the waiting set us back about 2 hours.
