Before you pack
2 points
- On routes to/from the US, Mexico and Canada, sports equipment weighing 23 kg or less is carried within the normal checked-baggage allowance at no extra charge -- routing through those markets can avoid the sports-equipment fee entirely.
- Pay the sports-equipment fee online via Manage Your Booking or at check-in in advance rather than waiting for the gate.
