Virgin Twilight check-in Gatwick

Hi all. If I use twilight checkin at Gatwick what happens about hand luggage are these weighed at the same time or are they not weighed at all? Sorry if it seems a daft question I have never done it.
Also can I checkin online before traveling to the airport and still do the twilight bag drop?

I’ve never had my hand luggage weighed when doing twilight check in. Yes you can still do online check in before arriving at the airport, then do the twilight check in.

Yeah you can check-in online and no they don’t weigh your hand luggage. We took ours to show them but they didn’t do anything with it.

They only ever look at it and never weigh it.

We always do OLCI in the morning and then drive to Gatwick for twilight check in. We've never taken our hand baggage.

According to the Virgin website, twilight check-in at Gatwick is 5pm - 9pm. We have done this many times with Virgin & BA - still check-in online, print boarding passes, then arrive at Gatwick and either go to "bag drop" desk or last time with BA printed our own bag tags at a machine and put the cases on the conveyor belt. They are weighed at the self service machine. We usually leave our hand luggage at the hotel. PLEASE NOTE: All passengers must be present for this option.Good luck & have a great time.
