I just worked out that if I were to check in a bag for my two flights each fortnight it would cost me 24 x £50 ($75) each year - thats £1,200 !!! ($1,800).
OUCH
That would more than pay for two sets of clothes and two complete wash-kits.
Just an idea. Those costs do not of course include the medication you would need to deal with the stress of standing in the check-in queues.
