On the weight thing, Easyjet Edinburgh were hilariously useless esp when I had piled stuff into the bag so it must have been a few kilos over:
Easyjet: “What weight is the bike bag, sir?”
Me: “I don’t know, sorry, can’t you weigh it?”
Esyjet: “No, our scales here at the check in desk are broken. Please take it over to the public weighing station by the main door. Yes, that one there”
Me: “Eh? Really?”
Easyjet: “Yes sir, we insist, thats out policy.”
Me to Missus, whilst trying to contain 3 kids running about with all other bags and stuff (hence my non-challenge to easyjet, Missus hates me being confrontational): “right, wait there a sec, just stay at the desk and sort out other bags”
I drag the, very heavy, bike bag over to scales, says it needs a bloody £2 coin. WTF? Nae chunce! Walks back over the desk.
Back at easyjet desk:
Easyjet: “How much did it weigh, sir?”
Me: “32kg”
Easyjet: “Super, here’s the tag, please take it to oversize baggage”
What a bunch of fannies. So I conclude, IMHO, on other flights too, you’ll be fine.
