Hi lovely forumites - 8 sleeps to go and I'm in a tizz! Am confused about Virgin baggage allowance. We booked before Dec when Virgin changed their baggage rules so as far as i can tell we are allowed 23kg of checked baggage per person. I did ring them but found the man a bit hard to understand but "think" that is what he said. The website gives us the option to pre purchase luggage but once you select everything the site goes nowhere so I am assuming our luggage is included.
Next thing - they say luggage must not exceed 140 linear cm which is length + depth + height. Just measured our new luggage and its all bigger than that at about 160cm. The website says you can take over sized luggage but not more than 32kg. The bags we are using are the bigger ones you can buy.
Talk about in a tizz - have not travelled for years and dont want to get to the airport and have hassles so if anyone has travelled on Virgin lately with a biggish bag can you tell me how it all went!!
THANK YOU - PHEW!!
