Yep ....

Not quite sure how it worked and which country Sara is going to ... but last September traveling with Monarch to Spain.. found myself overweight by 8 kls.
for which I was charged.

Coming back, even though I left certain items at my friends was still 6 kls overweight when I got to checkout. My heart sank thinking would have to pay this, but they didn't blink an eyelid.

Someone suggested that it was probably because in theory I would have probably purchased goods in Spain, which is good for their economy. Not quite sure about this .. maybe the charge I paid in Manchester covered both ways, and was showing up on the computer when I checked in ?

Could be Sara would not get charged on the return journey, but wouldn't advice her to take this risk.
