Poster: A snowHead
|
Hey,
I'm going to Pas this weekend just for a couple of days (please let there be snow!) and to save money we're just gonna hire kit there rather than pay loads to ryanjet for taking baggage but was thinking my Salomon boots are quite compact and could easily wear them through security and on to the plane.
Anyone done this? Can anyone see any issues except hot feet?
Cheers

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

nitch, shouldn't be any problem - I've worn touring ski boots on serveral planes and only once had to take them off for the plane. Never had any problems at security, other than the usual having to take them off to put them through the X-ray, and only comments have been along the lines of "not wasting any time getting on/off the slopes then, eh?"

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

There is a post on one of the boarding forums about this. People have done it and one chap has a recent mail from the airline (Thompson, I think) confirming this is OK to do.

As I'm only taking hand luggage, it wouldn't leave much space for anything else
