... in response to luggage, posted by snowwego on Aug 20, 2002We were also over the allowed amount for intra travel,
ie. Kiev to Warsaw (OK on the international). At the
Kiev airport I figured it would cost us an additional
$300 dollars according to the luggage rules (2/person)
and the weight amount). At the check-in counter, sure
enough, the lady asked for overage amount, but low and
behold, my wonderful future wife began a discussion
with the clerk and now it was just $100...and we all
know were that went...then the clerk preceeded to give
us passes to the excutive business lounge in the
airport (free snacks/drinks and air-conditioned!!)...
plus she upgraded our tickets (from Kiev to Warsaw)
to business class...what a deal...just let your
future wife bargain with them, and don't show the
clerk that wad of money in your wallet...good luck.
