Qantas- One world, Status cheat by Sri Lankan Airline

[dajop]

I have never even come close to reaching J luggage limits so they must have had mega luggage!

Oh I have, and often. Between 2 of us 105kg. Not normal for ordinary tourist/business type travellers, more common for VFR (Visit Friends & Relatives) travellers, especially to/from the subcontinent, and very common amongst those of us who live outside our native country. Nice to stock up on items you can't get or are expensive where you live.

I went to colombo for 6 month assignment and had allowance of 90 Kg on Bus. class ticket from BA+Emirate in last Oct.
When I came back I asked SL Air about my 57 kg and they said as silver FF I am entitled to 52 kg. I know now silver on QF is not the same on SL air.
Tks for all of your comments.

Chalk it up to one of life's little lessons :-| You probably weren't the first to make this mistake and certainly won't be the last. The world of baggage entitlements is a complex one indeed.
