Not quite. British Airways (and some other airlines) allows sports equipment bags in addition to the normal bag allowance. (Not weight, just amount of bags).
With most of them now having gone to a '1 checked in bag only', being able to declare your shinai bags as 'sports equipment' was very convenient.

They all seem to be getting in line then, our experience here for the last year or so is that there is an additional charge for sports equipment (it sucks). It looks like no one wants to loose an opportunity to make a few quid.

Out of curiosity, what's BMI doing?
