sorry if this sounds like i have spit my dummy out but i would prefer to give my overweight duty free away to another passenger for free or smash into a bin than pay them another penny. it makes my blood boil just how low TC will stoop.
Alternative book with monarch you get 10kg carry on ;)

karen

or could just buy dutyfree in dalaman when land might be a bit more but not £40 worth

Or indeed easyjet where you can have as many kilos as you like as long as your dimensions are ok and you can lift it into the overhead lockers.

We flew with Easyjet last week and I was amazed at the size of some of the hand luggage.

If you buy your duty free at Dalaman they will only allow you 1 bottle of full strength spirits or 2 bottles liquer.Not that I am a lush mind you.....only stock up for the cold winter months ahead in Calis!Lol!

I agree with Karen,last year with T.C.so as not to have any spare weight allowance going back to UK on holiday I packed our cases with large packs of toilet rolls and anything else useful,if Ive paid T.C. for 20 kilos I,ll make sure I use it,my family in the UK had toilet rolls for ever and a day!!!!!

Easyjet have no weight restrictions, just a size guide AND you can take your duty free in addition.  Be interesting to hear from anyone else who experiences this situation with TC. Problem is, once one carrier catches on to this  ----------- !

Well the answer is to TC don't buy anything.  I am sure they are not in the position for this type of outcome.

Just done live chat with ThomasCook site.
5kg does not include duty free and duty free can be carried in separate bag.
Try live chat yourself if you want further reassurance.
