Poster: A snowHead

I haven't booked yet but Easyjet are the easy way from from Gatwick to Geneva for our summer trip.
I know that Easyjet charge £15 per pair of skis each way but do they deduct their weight from your baggage allowance as well ? That would seem like a double hit to me.

Nope, you get your 20kg PLUS your sports equipment.
You CANNOT have more than 20kg in one bag tho, they will charge you excess even if it's ski boots in your main bag taking it over

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

Ah, I forgot about the boots they are in a separate bag but they didn't charge us for those last summer, we didn't have skis then. Should they have charged for them or at least weighed them ?

Not too sure, but a pair of boots ARE included in the £15 for your skis

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Charlatanefc, Thanks for the info.
I'm excited at the prospect of having my own skis but it is dawning on me that by the time I've transported them and had them serviced, on top of the initial outlay, I will not be saving any money.

Are you sure you cannot have more than 20kg in one bag? I've flown them a few times with boots in a bag, as long as it's under the safety weight of 32kg I have been ok.

20kg is the cut off point before they start charging you for excess baggage. For the EOSB I had 20kg in my main bag (including boot) and another 10 or so in my ski bag, as well as a small amount in a carry on rucksack. I reckon I'd have had a job getting all I wanted into 1 bag if I'd not taken the skis so the ski carriage charge offset a certain amount of the excess baggage charge.
