In 09/07 I booked a return flight for 2 from STD to BCN, for 02/08
When I booked the flight , we were allocated ONE combined piece of hold luggage, which must not exceed 20kgs*
EJ states the weight allowance PER PASSENGER is 20kgs.
EJ further state due to H&S,the combined bag must not exceed 32kgs*, (so presumablly the additional 12kgs would class as excess baggage, and therefore be chargable?).
If not chargeable, the 12kgs, making 32kgs,means each passenger's allowance is only 16kgs each, not 20kgs
Online you can pay �3.99 per extra case, however, BEWARE,when you try to pay for ONE extra case, to enable you both to have a suitcase.. and both to have your 20kgs EJ charges TWO lots of �3.99, an additional �7.98
(3 people 3 x �3.99 etc.)
This is grossy unfare practise, as you have already paid for one combined case, so why charge twice?
You might as well turn up at the airport with an extra case and just pay the �8.00 at the airport
It might be a better idea to book each person seperately.,at least that way each person would be allocated their 20kgs when booking. Although, you would run a risk that you may not both get on the same flight!
Assuming the combined luggage weight allowance is sufficient, EJ have not even considered the fact you may be travelling with another person but not necessarily staying in the same accomodation as them.... resulting in having to divide you luggage at your arrival airport, with one person not having a case to carry it in!
Interestingly, today (1/2/08),I have just entered the same flight details on the EJ website, the price is a great deal more now, due to the flight being in the next 2 weeks, but, the luggage allowance is now 2 pieces of hold luggage per passengers combined
Great if 2 persons are travelling, but what if your booking was for 3 people or more!
Surely One 20kg
