Apologies, if my post is going a little off topic, but was wondering if anyone has traveled on EK with a bike in tow? Bike would be stored in proper bike hard shelled case which apparently meets "airline regulations"

My routing would either be AKL-CDG or AKL-NCE in Y

I seem to come up with such varying information on excess baggage fees (this includes many other airlines I have been researching)

Thanks
