    Will you be checked through to Dublin. If not it is a entirely separate flight. Bring 20kgs back - post the rest.

    If you are checking your bags all the way thru before you leave the US, you'll be fine. Aer Lingus won't charge you more for being over the limit. If you are checking your bags in when you get to London, then it all depends on the person checking you in. They may make you pay the fee, or they may just wave you on. 3kgs is not a lot. Take out a sweater and wear it, or stuff a few things into your hand luggage and you should be able to get your bag in under the 20 kg limit. Any flight that I have been on, they have overlooked being a kg or two over the limit, but once you go over that, they make you start removing stuff or pay the fee.

    It depends on whether flights are on one booking or separate...if they are on the same booking thus same PNR then your bags should be checked through. If booked separately you will have to collect in London and recheck and therefore be subject to Aer Lingus' lower baggage allowance
