We
are fortunate that TUI help us by giving supporters additional
charity luggage allowances. We have set out below
the most commonly asked questions but do
contact us
if you have any other query.
When to Apply?
You can complete the application form whenever
you wish. We will forward it on to the airline who
will deal with it accordingly.
How Much Will Be Granted?
The airline deals with applications on an
individual basis. They will take into consideration
things like how many other requests they have had
for the same flight and how many of you are
travelling. We can’t guarantee that any allowance
will be given but airlines frequently give 10kgs per
person.
Can The Allowance Be Used For Anything Else?
Definitely not. All airlines require you to pack
and label the excess charity luggage separately to
the rest of your luggage.
Once Agreed Will I Definitely Be Granted the
Allowance at Check in?
All excess charity luggage allowances are subject
to load on the day. This means that if the flight is
already at full capacity then the charity luggage
won’t go and will follow on the next available
plane. We haven’t known this to happen but it is a
condition to be aware of.
What’s The Process For Applying/Granting the
Allowance?
Please complete the application form which you
can find
here.
Once we receive it we will acknowledge it and either
make an application immediately. As soon as we hear from the airline we will confirm with you. Please
note that the additional allowance is only added to
outward bound flights. |
