Do you bill your ski equipment? This is what you have to know

Initially economic flights can see their price doubled.We tell you all the data, airline by airline

Organizing a trip with included flight is not always a simple task, but more complicated is when the destination is to a ski resort.Hotels, airplanes and displacements are the luggage-boots, skis or canes that are indispensable for descending the slopes-they are more than a headache if we do not want to see the price of our flight increased with rates that in some cases are around 50 euros.

Skyscanner, the comparator for plane tickets, hotels and car rentals, has analyzed twenty airlines that offer flights to destinations where to practice white sports and has examined the billing conditions of each one of them.If the price of the ticket includes traveling with the ski equipment or an additional charge.In the case of being included in the price, what are the restrictions on the maximum weight and dimensions s allowed on flights.

Low-cost companies

As a general rule, low-cost companies require an extra charge as is the case with Ryanair-a 50-hour charge applies euros-; Vueling-with a charge of 45 euros-or EasyJet that applies an extra 40 euros on each route that the ski team wants to bill.

The result of these charges shows that what initially seems the option More economical it is not-for example, an EasyJet flight from Madrid to Geneva for 72 euros round trip can double the price of the ticket by adding the additional charges and becoming the most expensive choice-152 euros with EasyJet compared to 141.14 Euros with Iberia-.

Length and weight allowed

Another consideration to consider is the maximum length allowed and the weight of the luggage.Some airlines such as Air France, Delta or KLM have more permissive policies that allow passengers to carry equipment up to 300 cm on board, while others, such as American Airlines, Austrian, Iberia, Lufthansa or United, do not allow luggage to exceed 158 cm in length.they will have to pay an extra for the size with these airlines.

Depending on the contracted rate

Another point to consider are the variations that are within the companies themselves depending on the conditions of the rate that has been contracted.Air France, for example, includes ski equipment in the ticket price of the« classic fare&raquo ;, but ski equipment is not contemplated in those passengers flying with the« mini» fare.

Angel Guirado, spokesman for Skyscanner in Spain, says« with this guide we want to go a step further by clarifying the different conditions imposed by the airlines, as they can be confusing.We hope that through this analysis, travelers Already informed, make your decisions in a more informed way and when booking your flight, choose the most suitable for them, and even know if it is profitable to fly with your own ski equipment&raquo ;.
