on a china southern flight from JFK to China, Me and my buddies backpack was checked for weight. The magic number was 7 kilos. We we both way of the limit, but they gave us a pass because it was photo gear with a lot of batteries. The check in person said, if bag is over and you have fragile or batteries, you (should) get a pass to have a heavy bag. Batteries are not allowed in check in, so what can they do?
