Luggage: Exceeding the permitted dimensions
Hi !
We'll be traveling to the US soon; there will be three flights, two with Virgin and one with Delta. Everything was booked with Delta.
I just looked at the baggage allowances and weights. And now I see there's a problem with the carry-on bag. The permitted dimensions are 35cm (Delta) / 36cm (Virgin) in width. However, this trolley is 39cm. The height and depth are fine !
Do you think we're at risk of having to pay a surcharge ?
So, here are the details of the three flights :
1) LHR - MCO : Delta 5971 (operated by Virgin - VS91) - Premium (G) - A330-900Neo
2) MCO - LGA : Delta 2239 - Delta Comfort (W) - A321
3) JFK - LHR : Delta 5992 (operated by Virgin - VS46) - Premium (G) - A350-1000
Thanks for your feedback !
