We recently returned to Ireland from visiting our daughter in Montreal where we'd acquired a couple of extra items of clothing and shoes only to be told by our low-cost carrier from the UK that between us, we were now 17 lbs over-weight. This amounted to 17 X 10 = £170 in penalties. I weigh 70 kilos and Colleen tips the scale at 55 kilos yet the gentleman in front of us at the check-in who must have weighed at least 120 kilos was not penalized because of - excess weight!

I was trying to use your calculator for Iowa to Florida.. and it kept saying that driving would take 9 hours less then flying... until I realized that time to the airport needed to be inputed at 0.25 for 15 minutes.

Family of 6x$?.?? is usually about the price of 2 tickets, plus we have transport when we get there. So we save a ton. Besides, we've done the Phx to San Diego drive, and I'd rather drive. I hate lines, and waiting around. Even though it might take slightly longer to drive, I prefer to feel productive in my time wasting, and I can see the miles drive by while sitting in the airport waiting frustrates me, and I try to do it only as necessary.

My 9 hour trip to Tennessee each summer has always been better for driving based on that calculation.

I need two more people to make it cost-effective. Any takers? There are perks to having checked luggage charges: the flights tend to be cheaper, so if you don't have any baggage to check, you don't have to pay. And in general, long-haul flights still have checked bags included in the cost, so it's really only an issue for shorter flights, when you probably don't need to bring all that junk anyway. However, if everyone brings huge carry-ons there won't be room for them all. Lose-lose situation, I suppose :) I’m gonna drive to New Zealand next week… I need two more people to make it cost-effective. Any takers?

The magic number of three is especially true when you drive to San Francisco.. (those stupid carpool lanes!) I'm going on a trip to Berlin to celebrate the new year with me friend. We are still trying to decide which way to go. The cheapest is deffinately driving, only problem that winter tired are compulsory when it snows. And my friend doesn't have those. She wants to take the gamble, but if we are there and it starts snowing we are pretty much screwed. And if it snows before we even want to go we even have a bigger problem. Train is more expensive and we are stuck to a time to come and leave... and flying isn't a possability either way... So we still have our dillema good show.

Flights are crazy right now...found a flight for 5 euros, but it was going to be about 135 euros for my suitcases (not kidding!). Found another one that was $122 for an international flight, but the fuel surcharge was about $350 - obviously way more than the cost of the flight itself. Crazy! LOL @ carry on baggage Brett ;-p.
