Fedex ground is very cheap, 1/8" luan ply on the inside or outside of carton mail sailplane to a friend. How about those Ski tubes? Snow board Tubes? Are they now extra? being that they are specifically designed for air travel. I did read that they are cracking down on those oversized suitcases because of weight issues, just wondered if it meant sport stuff also. JD

It looks like almost everyone has gone down to two checked bags and raised the rates for any additional bags or overweight or oversized bags to $80. Last year you got 3 bags and it wasn't that hard to get something oversized on for nothing. But it looks like things are going to be much more expensive in the future.
