In Reply to: EXTRA BAGGAGE ALLOWANCE TO BALI posted by Bazz on Tuesday, 28. June 2005 at 22:08 Bali Time:
I wrote to QANTAS recently to ask if we could be allowed an extra baggage allowance to take up clothing etc to distribute to the Balinese. We are flying from Perth with QANTAS to Singapore then AA to Bali.However, they have said that because of financial constraints etc at the present time, that they could not grant our request!A friend's daughter was also not given the extra allowance during December.
Would be interested to hear if anyone else was given permission or otherwise.( I thought I had written a "persuasive letter too!) ;-)
In the past we have flown with Garuda, and for the last 4 or 5 flights, they have always allowed us another 15-20kgs extra on the outward flight.
