    We are flying Easyjet to Geneva with bikes on Saturday. This was advice we got from EJ: 32kg for bike PLUS 20kg hold luggage. Email below

    2nd May 2012

    Thank you for choosing us for your travels plans.

    I confirm that each passenger is entitled to carry 32 kg of weight allowance for bicycle in bicycle box without any excess weight fee. They can also carry 20 kg (per passenger) of weight allowance for hold bag.

    Please ensure that the combined weight of hold and bicycle is not more than 50 kg (per passenger).

    Ts and Cs on EasyJet website support what coolhandluke says so I’d be wary of that advice Bewildered. 32 kg for everything combined.

    Hmmmm…condradictory info here:

    Payment of the sports equipment fee increases your total allowance by 12 kg to 32 kg.

    Some great advice here.
    Do you need to take e111 card or any other forms apart from passport and insurance?

    Just back from week at Les Arcs. Paid the sports supplement with EJ so got 20kg for hold luggage AND 32kg for bike and bag, exactly as advertised.

    Zero problems at either Edinburgh or Geneva airports with EJ, even with my enormous hard case box.

    There were 18 bikes on the plane to Geneva (16 roadies)….took some major reorganising to fit us all on.

    Good idea, I’ll take my bike so I can ride it while you’re window licking. Twonk.

    Mud Tyres… Can save a days riding and make it enjoyable rather than just survive.
