Interesting Easyjet Hold Baggage Info

At Heathrow the check in belts simply won't function if the suitcase sitting on it exceeds 32Kg. It's the most hi-tech way I've lost sausages I can tell you.

Hillside - I will wait for your update - good luck

On our recent trip, T.C wanted a huge £35 per 20kg case. No way was I spending £70 for 2 cases.

confused.com here Toky - it's now £ 20.00 return.

Yes, H, that is what we pay from Aberdeen too.  I fill my case then weigh my husbands, which is usually about 12 kilos so I fill his up to 20 kilos too.   He thinks because we keep clothes in Calis we don't need to bring much out, but he does not understand that I cannot keep wear the same clothes every time I go on holiday.

That's what I have paid in the past too Highlander. I was shocked and wondered if it was because it was a late booking. I have the paperwork to prove it. I couldn't believe it!

Flew out with EJ in Sept and had to pre-pay for extra 6 kilos
20kgs already booked and added another 6kgs total weight 26kg
charged extra !!!!!!
I think Ian may be right in that 32 kgs is the maximum you can take in one bag but you ?pay for the further 12kgs Anyway hope things work out  

[Scunner]

Book it and see! Even make a pretend booking for 2 and add one bag and see what the cost is and what the maximum weight is. Once again I DO know that 32kg is the maximum weight you can take in one bag. That is why 2 people with one bag can't take more than 32kg!!!

You were charged for your extra 6Kg I assume because I am talking about 2 people with one bag (32kg max) and you were one person with one bag to check in (20Kg max).

Two people can pay for just one bag, which can be any weight up to 32Kg maximum.

Sorry doh got carried away you are quite right and that was why I paid xtra

Easyjet are incredibly confusing when it comes to baggage. The stupid thing is that two people paying for two bags only get 40Kg together (20kg each) - so for half the price you can take 32kg in one bag between you. Also it looks like you can pay for as many bags as you like - six for example. Problem is, you pay a huge amount but if there aren't 6 people, you are paying for bags only - i.e. you don't get 6 x 20kg, you still get 20kg which can be spread across 6 bags!

We've booked with Easyjet for half term week at the end of October, flying out of Stanstead.  We were only going to bring hand luggage, but decided to bring one case with us - yes £18 for 32 kg!  Bargain!!

We booked the car park through Easyjet's website too - £29 for the week.  

Our third bargain with them was a BOGOF on the VIP airport lounge.  Think it's cost us £17 for both of us (waiter service) for up to 3 hours, all food and drink included, plus papers, magazines, wifi access etc!!!  We'll be at Stanstead at 9.30am after a four hour drive.  We'll both be VERY hungry and thirsty by then!  We should get our moneys-worth!!!  (It might be a little early for beer/wines though!  I did say "might"!!!)  

Just hope there's no delays or cancellations now - I'm looking forward to the VIP lounge!!
