Hi people.

Just want to see who the best airline is to travel with sup's when flying domestic. I know some airlines won't take them at all. My sup's r under 9 foot. So if anyone knows of a good company please let me know. Domestic only though.

Cheers appsy

Yeah definately go with Virgin. I've taken my 8,10 with them a few times and never had any problems. Make sure you pay the extra for checked baggage and as long as you don't go over the 20kg including board and paddle you're ok.
Cheers, Ali

Only certain plans can carry 6m you just have to check what plane you are on. most of the time the ones going from the goldy are the small ones and you are better of to go to brissy. They have a nose cargo area that can take 6m but you just have to make sure you get one of the bigger planes.
