Good thing they didn't ask me to put my 15kg backpack on the scale.

I don't know why they care but apparently its something they care about greatly.

Safe travels.
Nothing new here at all. 8kg has been in force (admittedly not always strictly enforced) for the past couple of years. Try this thread from LH forum http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/miles...-feedback.html
