hi Eileen
I take a fold in a bag chair. It weighs about 6kg and has a handle. This year i am taking one with flowers on! It was from Wollies, it is comfy to read in. I always take one and then i will leave it there for someone else. not worth bringing home. It is useful as i know i will be comfy even on beach or will go in hire car.
Every year my hubby Stephen says we are not taking that chair again, i am not carrying it!! But of course i get my own way and it always comes in useful. You will know who i am when you see me in it. Bright blue with multicloloured flowers on!
To be honest it is a good idea as if i want to go to beach for short time i dont have to hire bed. I will hire bed for sunbathing but sometimes i get bored and only want 30mins!!
Never any problem at airport, someyears i am not sure they even count it as alowance as you have to take it to different area to hand in like a buggy!! It isnt heavy at all. (always fly from leeds)
Why not give it a try!!!
