Just a reminder if you're going on a cruise vacation.
EasyJet's baggage rules are strict and they mean it. It costs money to check in bags, and there's a weight limit, too: Each passenger is permitted one piece of hand baggage to maximum dimensions of 55x40x20cm, and up to 8 pieces of checked-in hold baggage to a maximum combined weight (even though they charge EUR 11 for each bag) of 20kg. A fee per kilo for excess weight is charged at the airport prior to departure (and in BRU, that means EUR 12 per kilo or part thereof - unless you preebook, for a massive 25% discount i.e. EUR 9 per kilo, in increments of 3 kgs).
