1cm difference.

Has anyone had any experiance at LHR in the last few days of handluggage 1cm
bigger in one dimension than the new regulation size ?

Are 'they' being jobsworths ?

Would the term "jobsworth" be the same as "prick?"

Why can't they simply use the old advice to add up L W and H and let that go ?
It would be *easier* FFS !

The government is behaving like a total ass over this and the sooner 'NuLab' go
the better IMHO. They've turned into the very things they once whined about.

Bloody jobsworths wouldn't allow it !
They are causing more stress than the terrorists.
At this rate they will start being compared to the TSA.

P.S. LHR T4 this lunchtime was emptier than I have ever seen it before -
have people really stopped booking flights ?

Our hand luggage is usually 2 rucksacks. Full up they would exceed the
limits but with the stuff they usually contain they easily squash into the
required limits. I am assuming they will be ok... or will we have a
problem?

If you can squash it into the limits you should be fine.

That is just one reason I prefer a soft-sided carry on.

No more than 160cm thick? The new limit is pretty small.

Which isn't a great help when you are carrying a ton of books for someone
and you want something with wheels and you know you are at/over the checked
luggage allowance.
