I went on a cycling holiday during the summer. I'm over 6 feet so my mtn bike is on
the big side. This, along with fully loaded panniers put me way over the weight
limit. I called the airline before I few and was told that billing me was more hassle
than it was worth. I was told that if I said nothing, the agent would do the same.
This turned out to be true. The extra baggage rate is 2% of the most expensive seat
per kg (~1% per pound).
If you take you bike on a plane, remember to deflate the tires!
