Quote: I find that increasingly it is hard to take as much weight in checked luggage as in the past and two rifles plus ammo is becoming more difficult. One trip the excess luggage to Africa cost more a fortune taking two double rifles, a 9.3x74R and a .450. Increasingly I may take only a single rifle and seek for it to do everything. EQ

My last trip to Ireland with my usual airline being Emirates I had my first Ryan Air experience. This was a flight from Dublin to Skavsta airport at Stockholm.

A very reasonable return fare of 75 Euros ($106 AUD) with a carry on luggage allowance was I thought 'very good'. Then arriving at the check in desk my suitcase of 19.1 kilos in weight was charged at 75 Euros ...one way,on my return leg with the case I had to pay this again...yes unbelievable but true!

One adult $106 AUD return for the seat

One suitcase $212 AUD return for the same flight,I had heard of Ryan air previously but didnt expect THAT.

Two hunters flown return for the price of one suitcase.
