Just arrived back and as I shopped till I dropped I left my very old suitcase in Bali and bought Bali bags. I bought a #3 for hand luggage and a #4 & #5 for on board. I took a fish weighting scale (recommended by a forum member) cost about $10 in Big W and weight our bags and managed to keep within the limited - no excess. At the airport they have a glad wrapping service but I had bought wide packaing tape at the supermart and it cost Rp 10,000 and and I wrapped this around and over the zip and it was easy to cut off when I got home. Will always do this in future because it saved me the about 4 or 5 kilos that my suitcase weight and I used that for more shopping. Have a great holiday
