In Reply to: Luggage Limits and What you guys take? posted by crtx85 on Thursday, 27. January 2005 at 13:45 Bali Time:
We always take the biggest case and handluggage bag allowed by rhe airline and I carry back to Aussie the biggest handbag I can find as they don't class a ladies hadbag as luggage so if it is big you can put heaps in and not get charged. It is a separate weight for the suitcase and for the handluggage not combined or divided. We take just the minimum in one case and to make it easy at the airport we put the empty handluggage bags inside the case then we only have to pick up two cases. We always tie a ribbon onto all our luggage and this makes it eaiser to see yours as lots of people have the same case as yours. WE also use one hadluggage bag to put all our items to be declared and this makes it so much quicker at customs as they usually just look in that bag and not go through all the cases etc. Hope this helps.
