[QUOTE="Flora123, post: 2132164, member: 484460"] Two month trip is a long one but do you absolutely need everything with you on that flight? Could you carry half, and half in the hold luggage? Your infant should get some allowance for luggage and you should be allowed a handbag and one piece of hand luggage. How much do you need to carry in terms of approx size? They are in a tricky position as everyone tries to carry too much so you don’t want it to be offloaded. I’m surprised you actually asked. I was on a BA flight recently and everyone was asked to check in wheelie bags as the flight was rammed. One lady said she couldn’t as she had her medical supplies. They didn’t bat an eyelid and let her on with it. It was a 1hr flight!! I wouldn’t worry. You sound like you’ll be on a large aircraft so hand luggage isn’t such a problem. It was probably some office person ob the phone stating the company rules. Most crew are really really flexible. Have a great trip x [/QUOTE]
