RE: [Philmont]: Luggage Restrictions?

How about FedEx? Postal Next Day Delivery? Other types of delivery service?
Just a quick thought. Good Luck and Best Wishes! YiS: Jerry D Bailey

Subject: [Philmont]: Luggage Restrictions?

Fellow Philmonters:

I am days away from traveling to Philmont with my crew. I have just been
informed that checked luggage (i.e., seabag with backpack inside) is
considered oversize and is subject to additional fees (in my case, the
additional fee is 2/3 the cost of a ticket!).

Has anyone experienced this problem flying on NWA this year or in the
recent past? Are there waivers or such granted to Boy Scouts of America?
Does anyone know of a way around this unexpected, unbudgeted expense?

Thanks for your help.

Joe Hart
