Missionaries and Diplomats

Missionaries

So you've decided to bring religion to the far flung places of the world (we'll miss you from FT). Well you are in luck BA offers you extra luggage to help you on your way, up to a total of three bags. This only applies to booking in WT an WT+ because you wouldn't normally be travelling in CW or F as a missionary and there are beter allowances in those cabins anyway. Depending on the route these 3 bags are made up of:

1 Bag plus 2 extra Bag in WT
2 Bags plus 1 extra in WTP
2 Bags plus 1 extra Bag in WT & WTP

In any event the maximum weight for those bags is 23kg - 51lbs each.

Diplomats

You may have to travel with a Diplomatic Bag and you need to keep this in the cabin with you at all tmes. Should this bag exceed the maximum hand luggage requirements you can purchase an extra seat for it. You need to make sure that the DIPB code is in your booking.
