EasyJet Ski Bag vs Regular Bag
EasyJet Ski Bag vs. Standard Luggage
I have an upcoming trip with EasyJet and initially intended to bring my skis, for which I had purchased a ski/boot bag addon. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I no longer have the skis. Would it be acceptable to check in a regular-sized 20kg bag instead? It feels silly to pay for an additional bag when I won’t be traveling with skis.
It sounds like you’re in a bit of a bind! Generally, EasyJet allows you to check in a ski bag as part of their sports equipment policy, and it’s usually treated differently from standard baggage. However, if you’re not bringing skis, it’s worth checking with EasyJet’s customer service for clarification on whether you can simply check a regular 20kg bag instead.
In many cases, if you booked your flight with the ski bag add-on, they may still require you to bring the ski bag, even if it’s empty, simply because that was what you paid for. It’s a good idea to get in touch with their customer service to explain your situation. They may be able to offer a solution, like allowing you to check a regular bag without an additional fee or potentially switching your add-on to a standard bag option.
Good luck with your trip!
