Hey folks,
I've been shopping around for some cheap flights this afternoon and found an amazing deal with Lufthansa. After doing some searching around on both here and the net there is a lot of chatter that they offer free ski carriage, you just have to call the service number ( 0906-680.77.47 ) after you've made the booking. Can anybody confirm this? Seems a little too good to be true in all honesty.
Cheers people

I believe this is true. I flew lufthansa two weeks ago without skis, but looked into it.

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

Certainly was true last season. They're part of the same group as Swiss, so free ski carriage, at least for the moment.

shenryo, Definitely free this season. Cheap flights, 20kg of luggage and free ski carriage. As a result I always fly with them.

Amazing. I will book in the morning, couldn't believe that

I did it in March. I checked that it was free and they said yes but please inform them how many skis we were taking.

Corky, snowball, so is the idea, book the flights and then call them up straight away?

I took my skis for free in January. However their website does say somewhere that you should phone them to let them know you are taking skis.

shenryo, I fly with Lufthansa and yes skis are FOC but you do have to advise in advance, great service

You know it makes sense.

glasgowcyclops, too late, I've just completed booking but thanks anyway
Markymark29, I booked through BudgetAirways.co.uk and they have listed that should I require ski carriage I should call them after the deal - would you recommend calling Lufthansa too?

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

shenryo, Well done. In terms of calling I always let them know but have been told in the past that I needn't really have bothered as they would have taken them anyway.

shenryo, Well, they're German so what do you expect? You also get free drinks and a sandwich, terrible sandwiches though. Last year there were a choice of two both containing cheese - can't stand the stuff.
