Poster: A snowHead
|
We are off skiing in the morning and therefore running around last minute trying to sort everything.
We are flying Jet 2. Ema to Chambry
We have paid for 2x ski carriage.
Can we take coffin bag and what can we put in it?
Can we take 3 pairs of skis?
Boots clothes in coffin bag?
Thanks

With jet 2 from Leeds I have used ski bag which gives 20kg allowance and you can put anything in it including boots

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The Jet2 website FAQs seem pretty unambiguous:
The baggage allowance is 22kgs for each travelling customer per bag booked and paid for (excluding infants). When pre-booking additional bags in advance of travel, the allowance increases by 22kgs per extra bag booked up to a maximum of 3 bags, or 66kgs, per travelling customer. No single item of baggage can weigh more than 32kgs.
Golf bags and ski equipment charges are 30GBP/ 39EUR/ 58CHF/ 1060CZK/ 210PLN per flight for each item up to 20kgs but you can save £5 by pre-booking online »

As above
It's all down to weight
I have just flown with them today
They weighed my coffin bag and I cross checked with the girl on the desk
The max weight for a ski bag is 20kgs so put what you want in but keep it below 20kgs

apart from Edinburgh to Chambery where it doesn't matter what you put in the ski bag, it won't be travelling anyway. Which is why I now always do EDI-GVA, won't touch Jet2. Would be interested to hear from anyone whos travelled Jet2 to EDI-CMF and got skis this season, though, just to see if they've upped their game?

Yes I dont think MAN-CMF was such a problem, my skis usually made it back through MAN or LBA ! I am wondering if EDI-CMF is still as bad though - anyone?

Not heard anything specific this year - perhaps they got a non 737-QC aircraft up there. The QC stands for quick change (ie about an hour to take out the seats and turn it into a freighter) and are used for the Royal Mail runs around the country. All the extra kit involved in this increases the all up weight of the jet - which then leads to operating limitations into Chambery (which is tricky in the first place).
