This math is staggering. $1000 US for two people on two legs - - is that right? $250 per person per leg. That's about 190 euro. That's about 32 kg on top of the 15 allowed. 47 kg per person? You had 105 <i>pounds</i> of luggage each?

How?

I used to travel a lot with a laser printer for business, and even that, in a hard-shell case was only 69 pounds.

This is mind-boggling.

Best wishes... for better (lighter) packing, in the future!
