Baggage Info from American Airlines
You can take two pieces up to 50 pounds each, free. One of them can be
a cardboard box (such as a monitor). An additional piece (the third piece) is now $100
instead of the old $50. If the agent at check-in tries to refuse your box, tell him to
search in the computer on "AN Bag" for Curacao and it will tell him that the box
is OK.
In addition, you can as usual take a carry-on. It can be a transceiver if you feel strong
and brave. Be sure to have your ham license and a power cord to prove to airport security
people that it works.
If you're not on American Airlines, please check directly with your airline. These rules
vary drastically among airlines, and change with seasons.
This is relevant to all of you who are being kind enough to carry a CCC bag or box with
your own stuff. This is a way for us to get a lot of equipment down there for free.
