When not travelling for work, I do the same (hand luggage - usually very easy if I'm going to our French house). When travelling for work in my previous job, I could easily do a fortnight's business trip with hand luggage. Now, when I travel for work I sometimes manage, but my job occasionally involves carrying some odd (and quite bulky) stuff. So far it's been OK, but I look forward to the day when someone pulls me over and asks to see the contents of my carry-on bag and finds I'm travelling with 15 cosmetic mirrors and an equivalent number of bow ties.Big Smile [:D]

To be absolutely fair to airport security staff there are people out there who want to kill us. There were 327 charges of terrorism up to March 2007. I know it doesn't excuse officiousness, but it is a very responsible job.

I am having this really seriously large coat made with a lot of very big pockets on the inside to carry shoes, clothes, books, laptop, dead ferret ect. I bet it won't be long before Ryanair start to weigh everyone and charge by weight.

Must get my son to get a job in Dublin I think. just booked a flight for him Liverpool to Limoges flight cost 16.00GBP then we have 41.00 taxes (what I don't understand - it is 31.00 to fly out and ony 10.00 to fly back!!) Okay I'm fine with all that, but what really gets me is 16.00 to check a bag and THEN 8.00 Airport Check-in fee. You have to use airport check-in if you have a checked bag, you can't use internet check-in. So instead of wrapping it all up with a few pounds here and a few pounds there, why dosen't Mr O'Leary just come clean and say 24 quid to check one bag??

Just a small foot note - to P2 - thanks for your support, I am convinced Ron Avery is O'Leary's twin brother. By the way Ron, any suggestions on flights from Liverpool to anywhwere within striking distance of dept 24 will be appreciated Big Smile [:D]Whistles [Www]

That's your fault. You should have booked a single and thus saved a fortune.
