Exclamation Help:How to get the Extra Baggage allowance

HI everyone:

Just got my OZ PR and planning to relocate next month. This is my first time here on the Barbie. I hope someone could help my out here.

I'm getting a one-way ticket thru Singapore ailines and was wondering how to get the extra baggage allowance(40Kg).

Has enyone done this? Pls. share how you went about it if you were successful. I asked a local travel agent but they weren't familiar with this.

Any help is appreciated!!

Sush

Just e-mail them and they will send you the details. All PR visa holders who haven't validated are entitled to it with Singapore Airlines. [email protected]

If you are having a stopover however, you may have difficulties.

Thanks!!
I'm not planning on any stopovers 'cos I'm 5 months preggy

Is this the general email address? I reside in Japan. Should I be writing to their office here?
