    Hi Janiebaby
    Pay £6.00 to check in or do it for free on-line?
    Isn't this a no-brainer? :huh:

    If you check in on line, you also have priority boarding over people who check in at the airport.

    They raise a charge now for checking in at the airport so it would be better to check in online as it's free (at the moment). Also will same time from having to queue.

    Hi Janiebaby
    Sorry if I came across as a bit heavy. :embarasse

    Most definitely do it on-line.

    Go straight through Security to the gate.
    We only took hand-luggage too, out-bound our luggage wasn't weighed at all, although it is visibly well within the allowed dimensions.

    Just before boarding, they put up a sign that said 'Priority Boarding'/'Non Priority Boarding'.
    Get in the 'Priority' queue - on-line check in gives you this for free.
    Basically the priority queue boards first.
    As you don't get an allocated seat on your boarding pass, you get first choice of seats.

    Coming back (from Girona), we didn't do on-line check in, so we had to queue and pay.
    They weighed ALL hand luggage and those cases that looked like they were borderline on size had to be put in the metal container to check if they were within the allowed measurement.

    Hope this helps
