before a couple with twins, trying to get down the price of their excess luggage, one of the twins started crying & so the other joined in, they were only about 8 months old & the parents were in a fluster. They ended up allowing them through without any extra charges! They seriously had heaps too, but hey almost worth taking a baby with you to check ins....
Hey maybe the beggars that buy the kids will learn this trick & we will see a heap of babies going for a cheap price when booking in luggage!!!! hee hee hee
When our daughter was only 7 weeks old & I was going abck to Bali for 2 months there was a hell of a line at customers when coming down the old ramp...
She started crying & I was ushered through a side door & out where baggage collection was!!! took me all of 45 seconds!
They then also carried all my stuff to hubby (well not married then but!) & would not accept any money!!!
That was a bonus too!
