Easyjet luggage confusion!

GentleGiant_2

Hi,

A bit confused here!!

I think I am correct, however....

2 people flying.

3 bags purchased for hold.

Assume therefore we are allowed up to 60kg?

Can we therefore have one bag of 32kg (maximum allowed) and one bag of 28kg?

Or even 1 @ 30KG, 1 @ 20kg & 1 @10kg?

In other words assuming we do not go over 60KG and not more than 3 bags there are no extra costs?

When I booked recently on easyjet with 3 bags it was a different price for each bag depending on the weight. So i suspect the answer is no if you have only paid up to a particular weight on each bag.

The Easyjet site says:

You can ‘pool’ your hold luggage allowance
You can ‘pool’ your total luggage weight allowance – across items and across customers – but no individual item can weigh more than 32 kg.

Examples:

A passenger with two items of 20kg hold luggage has a total weight allowance of 40kg. So they could ‘pool’ their luggage allowance by bringing one bag weighing 23kg and one bag weighing 17kg.

Two passengers on the same booking, each with one 20kg item of hold luggage, have a total luggage allowance of 40kg. So they could ‘pool’ their combined luggage allowance by bringing one bag weighing 22kg and one bag weighing 18kg.

There’s an additional charge for hold items that exceed 20kg
The minimum weight you can buy is 20kg per hold item. If you’d like to bring a heavier hold item you can buy additional weight in increments of 3kg up to the maximum weight of 32kg. The cheapest and quickest way to buy additional weight for your hold luggage is online when booking your flight, or later via Manage booking.

If you pay for excess weight at the airport, it will be more expensive. You’ll have to pay an extra charge for each 1kg of excess weight over 20kg and up to a maximum weight of 32kg.


So yes you can pool

Have a look at your booking - it will tell you.

I've just done a dummy booking and at step2 it tells you EXACTLY what you are entitled to

It will only become chargeable over 20kg, if you have only paid for 1 bag. You have paid for 3 bags ( 60kg) so as long as no one bag is over 32kg ( H&S max limit) and all the bags are a total of 60kg or less, then you are ok.


I always go over weight and OH under weight, so they add both together and usually works out fine, but have paid in past when both of us, go over.
