Aer Arann have a ridiculous check-in baggage allowance of only 15 Kg (33 pounds) per passenger.
They will charge you $11 (7 Euros) for every extra Kilo (2 Ibs).
This is not printed on the Ticket nor on the booking sheets when you book on line. They claim its in the fine print of the terms and conditions.
All the other major airlines have the decency to print your baggage allowance on the tickets, and allow you twice the Aer Arann limit.
So if your traveling from over seas and planning to use Aer Arann - you will find out that the weight of your average suitcase is 5 KG (10 Ibs)- I had two, so I was technically allowed 2.5 Kg (6.5 Ibs) of clothes per suitcase! Thats not a lot of warm clothes for one Irish day, let alone a two week holiday.
They effectively charged me double the Air Fare I had paid to fly from Dublin to Galway, and back.
Great Country - Shame about Aer Arann.

Apoligies for low rating, although you have reviewed the luggage allowance well you havn't touched on any other issues or things to do with the air line xx

Same policy as Ryanair - a 15 kg limit isn't that unusual these days.
