This covers things like skis, snowboards, surfboards, golf clubs etc etc

This bag is included within your baggage allowance so if it is your only bag then you can carry it for free. If not you can buy an extra bag allowance

I regularly take 1 bag and 1 snowboard bag as being gold I am entitled to 2 bags without having to pay extra.

If you need to purchase an extra bag purchase it online as its cheaper than at the airport
OK thanks - so flying First I can take the oversize bag plus 2 standard bags without paying any extra charges (3 bags allowed in First).

Still think the BA website is confusing. If you can take a bag up to 190cm x 75cm x 65cm, why even mention the 'standard size'?
