Don't fly EasyJet!

When I fly I don't tell clients they need to book airline x or y, I just tell them what my requirements for luggage are. Previously the two that fulfilled them were Easyjet and BA business.

Ah, if only I could get someone else to pay for my flights. :thinking: :lol:
 
Actually BA are still worse than Easyjet.
BA is max 23 kilos for carry on. Easyjet is any weight I can shoulder press ;)

But with BA I get 64 kilos in the hold.

Not really as a toddler is not an infant.

Infants are carried on the parents lap and are not charged for so therefore they do not have a luggage allowance. Quite fair IMO.

Hi heather

You are charged for infants, however it is a fixed fee rather than the ticket price. The last 2 times I flew I was charged more for an infant than I paid for my ticket, and they got no baggage allowance!
 
what about some passengers who are as we say rather large they could be in theory 10st heavier than another passenger but both pay the same price for a flight ticket .
so this makes a mockery of a bit of hand luggage
dont think it will be long before the airlines start cashing in on this ????

That story hit all the news wires on April 2nd and it's just possible it's an April Fool that never got busted. But....

I've always said fat gits like me should pay more to fly we take up more space, and cost more in fuel etc so I've no issue if they do that...airlines such as Southwest in the US have a POS (Passenger of Size) policy where if you encroach on the seat next to you you have to buy a second seat, I believe though maybe incorrect that if the flight isn't full the do actually refund the second ticket price but as I say that maybe incorrect :)
