OP asked about size. size is different than weight. GA's can do weight really easily. very little is done about size. OS on weight is about like AA,LH,ua, us,af, az, and every body else.

my favorite. a woman with a baby in arms on BA. she exceeded the 8 kg with formula and diapers. they would not allow it. she stuffed all the formula bottles in her coat and boarded, but, man, that's strict.
