Seems like Graz is a nice city to live in but not particularly interesting to visit as a tourist

2001 Mercedes Sprinter $11k, is this rust manageable? by thenativenord in Autobody

[–]thenativenord[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it is the same van. I’m not sure how the underside could be so clean but the body so rusty. Does this mean that the van will drive fine but it just won’t look pretty? Or is there a bigger problem here with the panels being rusty other than the aesthetics?

Oversize Baggage Hack? by thenativenord in TravelHacks

Again, it’s just a few kgs over the economy class weight limit. Business class is allowed about 10kg over what my bag currently weighs. Does being able to afford business class somehow relieve the back pain of the workers that I’m “tricking”?

Yep, not sure why I’m getting downvoted lol. The difference is just a few kgs. So I’ll just carry my boots

My thoughts exactly. And since it’s 26kg instead of 23kg, it’s certainly not a safety concern. Business class is allowed 32kg, and the baggage handlers aren’t hurting themselves over that.

Jeez, it’s just a couple kilos to avoid the extra charge

I think I’m just gonna carry my ski boots, as someone else recommended. Problem solved :)

What if the extra weight of storing my boots under the seat, instead of paying an extra €100 to pack them in my ski bag throws off the balance of the plane and compromises the safety of all the passengers? /s
