mum...dad....grandad.....grandma.....junior. 1...junior 2.....and 1 shorty in its own car seat makes seven..

7

7 suitcases/7 hand luggage, no problem

except 5 of the suitcases could have held me and weighed as if maybe they did (except i was doing the lifting, unaided), then there was two laptops and a fold down buggy, all going en-route to florida

i think they had hired thier own Galaxy or Hercules

what got me was the terse comment by "dad"

"can you get a trailer for the return, im not happy with this...."


i can, except ive no towbar....unless he wants to pay extra

3 of the adults needed a year on the fatfarm, maybe the suitcases were full of mars bars

i was THIS close to saying, "ok, you have the right to cancel me and book another service"

this was at 5.30am, 90 minutes from manchester airport, with a 10am flight and a 3 hour check-in...

im not the sort to mince words, if they dont like it......

I suspect he booked you not for your good looks, but because you were cheap.

If he wants a bus, then best he books one.

Weight limit?

That is a factor which few multi seaters seem to consider....

well, if you take the base transit as the T280 with a 1400kg payload, take off the trim and 8 seats, id guess i could carry.....

800kg?

but those cases were kin heavy...whats the luggage allowance on Virgin transatlantic, a horse per person?

32 kg it seems

5 x 32kg 160, plus a couple smaller say 2 x 25kg 50kg = 210kg

hand luggage x 6

2 fat ladies (HOUSE!)

3 geezers
