Flying with Emirates
Howdy !!
in 5 weeks, i fly with Emirates to Sydney, i have heard if you can prove your emigrating, they will give you 40Kg baggage allowance, but i cant find a contact number on their website to confirm this
anyone else heard this? or can you back this up?

We have hopefully got the 40kgs sorted with emirates. We told the travel agent when we booked flights we were emigrating and after a lot of toing and froing we have had an e-mail saying we have the allowance.

Just make sure it states 40kg on tickets or you have it in black and white, ie email/letter.

Re: Flying with Emirates
You have to be flying there on a permanent visa. Get it in writing from them so that you don't have problems at the airport.

Hiya,
just been looking up costs of return V's one way and it's only £200 more for return. Did you consider this or is the extra baggage only allowed on one way?
I also noticed that you get an extra 10kg if you have diving equipment
Could be very heavy baggage :scared:

I have just been through this and all you do is book with emirates direct or on the web site, once you have a booking you can phone them on 0870 2432222 with your booking reference and and they will ask you too fax copies of your passport and unused visa to 01625 445262. Once you have done this it is a good idea to phone a few days later and check it has arrived ok and get them to email a confirmation. 40kg as easy as that!
Perth in September

You must get it in writing and on the tickets to be sure.
