And indeed, it is always cheaper to use your allowance than paying for extra but there's not always the opportunity to improvise. I frequently pack a duffel bag inside one suitcase for cases like that as I travel on different flights within a trip. | |

Buying a new bag at the airport was cheaper than the fee for a serious overweight bag. That was a human who told him, not a machine. | |
