We are making our first ski trip traveling by air next month, and after
going over United,s oversized baggage restrictions ,am wondering if it
is better to rent skis once we get to Canada or pay the extra fees.

Skis and golf clubs are exempted from United's baggage size
restriction. One ski bag or golf bag counts as one piece of checked
luggage, and you won't be charged extra.


How about this. Why don't you just bring your boots and rent skis.
