Best to also take a small suitcase as carry on. This way your allowed to take an extra 7 kg for free as long as you take it on board as hand luggage. See their website for carry on suitcase dimensions.
Also another option is to buy a luggage scale.These are only around $8.00 and if you weigh your luggage a few days before departure and are over you can then pre purchase excess luggage at a smaller fee, by calling your airline direct. I think you have to do this a minimum of 24 hrs before you fly.
I got pinned $380.00 last year coming back from LA so believe you me I am now doing the above as required !!!
