<font color='#000080'>Just thought I would let anyone know who is travelling with the above.
The excess allowance on production of a diver card is 5 kg, I have spent 2 hours weighing the kit down to a minimum when at 16 kg I thought that I would phone and book the extra on the flight.
Wow! surprise! the girl on the other end knew about diving and was using terms like "stab jacket". I explained my problem and for £30 you get what is known as a watersports package, all of your and kit no weight restrictions
I have to have the Pony bottle empty with valve open though, not too keen on that but I'll see if I can sneek it through with a couple of Bar.
Has anyone ever managed to convince an airline that the Pony needs to be sealed?
