Evening Folks,
I’ve just bought myself a new Snowboard wheelie bag for my trip next month, I'm flying with Easyjet and paid the extra surcharge at the time of booking (think it was £20 or there about). With this bag i know I’ll have extra room in it to fit clothes / necessities for the duration of my stay. My aim would be to have just my Board bag and hand luggage. My question is, I’ve heard from someone in the office that you're only allowed sports goods in the snowboard bag, i.e. board/boots/bindings etc.
Can someone clarify who's been with Easyjet before that I’m ok putting what i want into the wheelie bag.

Cheers in Advance

Gaz

Depending on the size of the board bag, you should get most of your clothing in there too.
A mate of mine is able to stuff his entire clothing for a week in his board bag. The git. wink

The only time I have been caught out by putting all my stuff in the board bag was when BMI baby said that the bag was too heavy for their handlers (28kg). I was under the total weight for ski bag plus luggage, but the single bag was considered to be too heavy. The prescence of wheels on the bag made no difference as the handlers would still have to lift it.
