air nz...how strict on luggage ?

[steveo3002]

flying london to lax tommorow ...bag looks its a couple of kg over the 23kg limit

likely to be a issue or no?

Not very in my experience, but I am a frequent flyer with them which may make a difference. Sign up and get your booking added to your account.

The LHR-LAX planes are all new too so your plane will be in good nick.

Yep, That’s what I mean. Never had a problem with luggage being overweight before - 25.something is the heaviest I can remember having though.

Oh and I can’t remember EVER having hand luggage weighed in LHR. Laptops are counted in addition to cabin bags too.
