 Poster: A snowHead

Anyone know if it’s okay to take skiis in a cardboard box of suitable size on BA? All my ski bags are currently in France and plan to use the box in which they were delivered from an online purchase.

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

@Ozboy, I can see no reason why, as long as it meets the stated dimensions, it shouldn't be accepted. I would be inclined to wrap a load of duct tape round the box, both for protection and to assure BA that the box is likely to survive the baggage handlers.

Ok so long as it doesn’t downpour with rain when they’re sat on the runway and your cardboard turns to mush?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

You can get quite a good ski bag for £14 from Amazon

I'd be tempted to look for a cardboard tube big/long enough. double packaging.

I did this with BA and it was fine. I made a string handle to make it easier to carry.
