Karen, If you need it, you are not stuck to just 20 kilos.   EasyJet will allow you to buy extra weight in luggage..3k at £3.00 for each 3k upto to 32k.   I found this out last week as we are flying out to join a cruise and the company have booked with are using Easyjet to fly out.
This is from Easyjet website.

I think you are only allowed 1 hold bag, I think you would be charged for the extra bag even if you do not exceed your 20 kilos. Unless you can take some in hand luggage as there is no weight restriction on this. The size of the cabin bag is important though.
Correct what Jacqui says about extra weight/ luggage, cheap with Easy jet compared to other airlines.

Still havnt heard back, il maybe try and phone tomorrow...thanks Jacqui and Lissa..what it is is two halfs of acrylic for our balcony table, we spent ages last year pricing up replacement glass, then found the shop that sells acrylic sadly they quoted us stupid price so hubby got some from work, iv weighed it and its 10 kilo so im hoping to be able to wrap the acrylic as one part of my 20 kilos and the other 10 as a bag...thats very handy to know for the future re being anle to buy extra kilos if i need it   :)  :)  :)

We tried this a couple of years ago and was told you are only permitted 1 bag, so would have to pay for two lots of luggage, but it still worked our cheaper than buying in Turkey,

That's a surprise Karen, not what our Travel Agent told us when she rang Easyjet to check.  I wonder is it because our cruise company has hired the whole plane?

I did read on T.A. This week that someone had asked Easyjet about an extra suitcase coming back from Turkey and they had been quoted £35.00 for the extra 20k case.  That was one way.

Yes is defo what the lady at Easyjet said yesterday, i said to her once she said i would need to buy more luggage about buying lots of 3 kilos at £3 and she said 'yes mam you can but the cost is not £3 it is £9' she also said if i book an extra bag il have to phone and do it as il only want the extra bag one way and doing it online will automatically book and charge me both ways? Iv never added bags after booking as always do it when making booking...im still waiting to hear back from EJ as to whether i can take the acrylic, she gave me two numbers to phone, one was someone's personal number, and another he bloming hung up so id had enough by then!  >:(
