Does anyone know how you can get extra luggage allowance on flights without paying the earth?
Dotty asked:
I am a “missionary”. I work in a home for abandoned and orphaned children in Nairobi, Kenya. Almost half of them are HIV+. I go home to England every year and I find that 20 kg luggage allowance is just ridiculous. People give me stuff for the children, I have to buy new clothes for the year as I can’t get them here. Does anyone know anything that can help? Even postage rates are astronomical, or I would do it that way.

How do I stop my toiletries from spilling in my luggage?
Happy D asked:
Every time I travel, I open my luggage to find that my shampoos,conditioners, hair serums, suntan lotion, etc have spilled out into my luggage. I do pack all this stuff in separate bags, but I can’t avoid them spilling anyway. It’s not so much the cleaning up, but the fact that I lose half my shampoo in the process and have to rebuy everything that spills once I get there. Any tips for stopping this problem?
