    looking for some info. heading to Malaga with herself looking for some info. 20kg luggage is €40 Each Way x 2 so that = €160.

    I see on there site that I can get an XL baggage allowance for €70 for 40 kg. which can be split over 2 bags. so at each way it comes in at €140.

    so effectly could I check in both our luggage under 1 name to get the saving. would this be allowed

    How long are you going for? If it's only a week then I'd just check in 1 20kg bag between you and bring your allowance in carry on each. It's easy to over pack on holidays but most blokes end up in shorts and t-shirts the whole time imo.

    2 weeks and she loves her clothes so I don't think 1 bag would suit. maybe a black bag for me. lol

    Can anyone tell me how much an extra bag is travelling transatlantic? We travel to Boston once or Twice a year. Sometimes we take an extra checked bag back with us on our return journey back to Dublin. Bizarrely when I added an extra bag for our return on thursday night. I only got charged €36! I can’t understand why. Is it something to do with Norwegian competition. The website says second and subsequent bag €75. I’m not complaining, if I had known it was so cheap I would have considered shopping more! Only found out on the last day

    €37 per extra bag on T/A, it's likely a change after Saver T/A fares. The website states two different fee's now.
