We took our transfer to the Geneva Airport, went to the check in desk and we were not on the system!!!!
We were told to go over to customer services to investigate why we could not be found. The assistant looked into our booking and we were meant to leave Geneva yesterday! How there was confusion over the dates I do not know. BA were fully booked until tomorrow, Swiss Air wanted a fortune but Easy Jet had seats. There is however a catch with Easy Jet, all the hidden extras.
We brought our tickets for £260 each, which gave us 1 checked in bag with a 20kg limit. I had 1 bag that weighed 19.6kg but Neil unfortunately had 2 bags both with 19kg of kit in them. I don't know what he took with him but he had a big excess charge coming his way so we juggled the weight around his bags and loaded his rucksack with heavy items but he was still stung with a £250 bill. An interesting end to our trip!!
Below is a picture of the difference in luggage. Mine is the 'Large' North Face black holdall, Neil has managed to fill the yellow and grey holdalls both XL's
We were away for 10 days.... I can't wait to see what he brings to Cho Oyu (5 weeks).
You gotta smile!
