Luggage all in all for me was 70kg !!! but business class with BA was fine and no extra charges. Just make sure you keep each bag weight down to 30kg or you may get oversize bag problems at check in.

I recommend bags with Wheel on in Egypt as there are no trolleys at either Sharm or Hurghada on your return flight after you enter the terminals.
ALL bags go through the x-ray machine but security dont seem to bother whats in them at all!

Blue OK could supply Sofnolime OK (12 Euro a KG I think it was), same with Tekstream.
I think you could probably rent a bailout cylinder from Tekstream and get them to drop off at Blue O 2 if you went with them....worth a try. Speak to Chris as he was very helpful at Tekstream.

I reckon overall going on one of Emporers 'Platinum' boats next time may be the best way to go
