Fly Alaska Air or any carrier coming out of Anchorage in the fall and the bulk of the checked cargo is these massive coolers that are full of meat and fish from the hunters and fishers. I was coming back from a stint on Adak (Aleutians) on Northwest one time and the cabin crew got all rowdy wit

I checked one big tea sack (think coffee 50 KG bag) and one african drum that was too big to fit in a tea sack on BA coming back from Kampala. Managed to get everything along that way with the 2 checked items allowed at the time. I looked odd in Heathrow wheeling around a drum and a tea sack
