Baggage Allowance
Feb 10, 2013, 3:27 PM

Hi, I am travelling to Egypt in March with my husband and 3 children. I have pre-booked check in luggage for all of us but notice the limit is 15Kg and hand luggage 5Kg. Does anyone know if Thomson is very strict about this? Also, is there any inflight entertainment?

No inflight entertainment. If your checked luggage is overweight you will be charged excess baggage charges. They do usually weigh your hand luggage as well, but as long as you stick to their rules you've nothing to worry about.

I've always had my luggage weighed whenever I've checked in elsewhere?
