Of course, none of these examples are relevant to you, but it might be useful to keep those in mind in case you find yourself in a similar situation.
Thanks. Will look at how the regulations are when situations arise. On top of that regulations may change. Better to find the current information at travel time than relying on old data / memory.
I cannot remember when was the last time we had checked bags on long haul international. Intra Europe have to check bags due to the weight and dimension restriction. Try as we might, we cannot travel with bags weigh below 7kg. But they are always one segment flights so it does not make a difference, i.e. no connection.
