 Poster: A snowHead
|
papasmurf, Some hotels supply them (The Brau in Zell am Ziller did last year), but most I have been to don't.
It hardly weighs anything anyhow.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Anyone who sees a man in a thread bare dressing gown wondering round their hotel remember to say Hi to Alex

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

Libertine,
Can't you weigh them?
I've just weighed my boots, they are 2.5 kg each. I want to carry mine as hand luggage.
The weight of the boots shouldn't be the issue because they should be the most important piece of your skiing equipment. It's the weight of the rest of your luggage that you should be checking.

Libertine, well done, what sort of liquor are you planning to take up the rest of the allowance with?

| After several attemps I've got my packing with boots to just under Ryanairs 15kg limit. Packing Tecnica Diablo, 5Kg, into DAkine 100ltr roller bag . However it means that my jacket, ski,pants , gloves go into the ski bag. walkie talkies, goggles scarf, sunnies go into rucksack hand luggage. |
I don't think walkie talkies are allowed in hand luggage...... |
I've always put 2-way radios in hand baggage. I've flown with Easyjet, BA & Air Canada with them, through Calgary, Geneva, Lyon, Heathrow, Luton, Toronto, Gatwick. Never had any issues with security in carrying them.  |
I had a friend who got his confiscated at Geneva security...... |
I once went through Geneva airport with a pair of radios, these were taken off me and placed in a bag, carried in the cockpit and returned to me at Luton. I was flying with sleazyJet. I quess the problem is that you can transmit on various frequencies and possibly cause interference to some flightdeck equipment

The airports should have a standardised list so we all know what will be accepted in hand luggage at security rather than trying to guess. It all seems rather random what they will stop you for - ski boots, helmets, radios.
I think I've mentioned on here before that I've been stopped for having a 1 1/2" long carabiner on my bag at Basel security!! I'm still none the wiser as to what I could have done with it that was wrong.
