ship or excess baggage to UK

British Paisa says on Apr 10, 2005, 23:30:

get a flight that goes through the US as the luggage allowance is a lot more, you can normally take two pieces of luggage weighing no more than 32kgs (each) and there is a fixed rate for excess baggage (per piece).

If you get a flight through Europe then it is probably better to ship items as you can normally only take up to two pieces of luggage with a maximum weight of 23kgs(both) and get charged excess baggage per kilo over rather than per piece of luggage and it is something stupid like £14 or £15 per extra kilo.

So if you plan on travelling heavy my advice would be to pay that bit extra in your ticket and get a flight that goes through the US, it will work out cheaper in the long run.
