How strict is Solar Air with their luggage limit? I'm going to Koh Tao this week via Solar Air and the Lomprayah ferry. The Solar Air luggage limit is 10 kilos. Pretty hard to carry one's dive gear with a limit like that. Just my BCD, fins and mask weight that much. Excess baggage is 70 baht per kilo. I guess I'll just have to wear the same clothes all week!

I guess it's just yet another sneaky way to make money.

When I travel via solar to Phrae they don't make a big deal of excess baggage, smile, shrug offer to pay and usually it's ok!

It's really a great airline, even if you can't hear the hostesses safety briefing over the engines!

Thanks. Can't wait...

As I am going to travel with Solar Air this month, I am wondering if recently they have become more strict about the luggage allowance limit.

Those who traveled with them in the past 1 or 2 month, have you managed to carry 15kg luggage without paying for extra fees?
