I had a bit of trouble getting my life jacket checked in on my return flight from Bermuda. It turned out not to be a problem, however the info I had printed off from the CrewSaver website (http://www.crewsaver.co.uk/download.php?id=1215 and http://www.crewsaver.co.uk/download.php?id=1212) was a couple of years out of date, and it took them a while to find the appropriate regulations in their books.
In case you encounter a similar issue, refer the airline to section 2.3.4.2 of the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations 2008 (49th Ed). Basically, it says you can carry up to 4 cartridges (2 in life jackets + 2 spare) per person, either as checked or carry-on baggage
