So? this is useless for anything other than a day trip because of the:

"Should you decide to check any baggage into the hold anyway, you must
check
in via the desk in the normal way."
bit (see toothpaste and nail scissors above). (To be fair, the OP didn't
say
that they *weren't* doing a day trip.)



Generally I can survive away from home for more than 24hrs without nail
scissors & toothpaste is available in most of the world nowadays.
