Easy Jet Luggage question

[wallace]

I wonder if anyone can help, I have 3 flights booked with
easy jet from Stansted on friday unfortunatley my parents
through ill health can no longer come with me, the problem
is that the 2 checked in suitcases were mine do you think
they will still let me take the 2 suitcase seeing as I will
have three tickets?

Aren't all checked in suitcases paid for anyway? As you can pay for up to 8 (or something like that) for once I doubt they will say anything at all.

Well thats the way I read it scunner luggage is an add on
not an allowance, I just did a trial booking with 1 passenger
I was able to book 2 pieces of luggage so therefore I should
in theory be able to take the 2 pieces on my original booking
I just hope aesyjets theory is the same as mine

my sister came back from London to Belfast with Aer Lingus saturday past with her son they had booked on 3 cases but when got to checkin were told you could only in fact have 1 20kg bag each and wanted an extra £180 for the case after much discussion !!!! they agreed on £90 so maybe a good idea to be sure what easyjet policy is before you travel have to say she was well peeeeved off - why does the system allow you to book bags if you arent allowed them ??

Phoned easyjet....easyjet say nooo!!!
you can book and pay for up to 8 cases but the total
weight of all must not be more than 20kg
is that mental or what! you can book extra weight at a cost![xx(]
up to max 32kgs

A couple of years ago I booked 2 seats in my name (Thomas Cook, flight was only about £30.00 then).  I knew I was going to be charged extra weight and was damned if I would pay.  
When I got to check-in they did ask 'why 2 seats?'and I told them I had a dodgy leg, needed the extra room.  After much huffing and puffing they did allow me 2 suitcases because, after all, I had paid for 2 seats.
Probably changed the rules now, though.
they get you every which way

I just tried to book a flight at Easyjet and I am pretty stunned to see that the information they gave is correct []

I tried to book a flight for 1 person with 3 cases to check in.

Cost for 3 hold bags 3 x £9 = +£27

Weight allowance for 3 bags (total) = 20kg

Ah, but I'm taking 3 cases because I need 50kg weight allowance...

Extra costs =

£27 (as above)
30 x £7 (50kg total - 20kg paid for as standard first hold item) = £210

Total for hold baggage (50kg) £237

Well, you live and learn [!]
