Flying with your helmet :)
Ok, so off to the Motorbike show next week and i was just wondering if anyone has bought a helmet there and brought it back as
a) hand luggage or b) it had to be checked in luggage? Any advice? BTW flying BMIBaby if that makes any difference. |

Re: Flying with your helmet :)
you could wear it, there is no rule about hats?
otherwise it could be put in hand luggage (just) but it will not leave much room for anything else. |

I would try to take it on with you. It's not that bulky.

With BMI, they have (or do in Brum) a seperate checking area for unusual or fragile items. You can take it there and pay a little extra for it to be booked in and dealt as a fragile item.......I am pretty sure a lid will not fit as "hand luggage".

Ive never had a bother taking a helmet as hand luggage, flown on most of the buget airlines with one. just make sure its only the one piece that you have.
