We got very cheap tickets for 5 of us when they were first issued and we got charged for being 9 kgms over. Which was about $135 which was a bit steep.
Absolutely everyone was checked and weighed on the Friday nmight flight into Sydney.
I didn't think it mattered that much but considering that one of our case was underweight it was a bit rich.
Of course we did have about 4 billion tonnes worth of hand luggage...As did everyone else. They were trying to encourage us to take stuff out of our cases and put it in our hand luggage!!! Bloody bizarre really.
Any way next time we will factor in the cost.
