In Reply to: Garuda and excess posted by ridingthewind on Thursday, 1. October 2009 at 05:08 Bali Time:
We flew home to Melbourne with Garuda, from Bali.
Our luggage weighed 55kg and our allowance was 40kg, ho hum!
I spoke to the check in person, no luck, went to the excess counter then went to customer service office.
We paid 5kg excess at us$8.50 per kilo (then au$12).
(Funny part was, I had changed Au coins for au$50 note with porter while we waited in the queue to check in. When I offered the coins to pay some of the excess, they would only accept gold coins, not 50c coins)
