What is worse is the excees baggage that the airlines charge.

I paid through BMI baby for my daughter to take 3 bags on her flight to go and live in Holland for a year. I think it was about £70.

When we got to the airport, they wanted to charge me £270 extra for excess baggage. I almost fell through the floor.
I wrongly thought that becuase i had paid £70 for three bags, that she was allowed 18 KG per bag.
We had to do devious things to get it down to £200.
She was taking all her belongings for a year stay.

In the end, what was about £30 pound return flight, with all the crafty add ons and excess baggage, it cost more like £350 to go to Amsterdam.
Cheap flights B***ocks.
They are getting more for flights than they ever did in my day.
Trouble is we will have to pay £200 for when she returns to England next year with all her belongings.
