When traveling abroad, you need to bring suitcases. But what you need to know is that airlines have regulations on the weight and size of checked luggage. Therefore, when packing your luggage, you need to understand these regulations, so as not to be required to pay extra expensive luggage overweight fees because of excess luggage, or even refuse to check in your luggage because of its size and weight, which will make you annoyed. Let's take a look at what international airlines have requirements for luggage.
1. Luggage size restrictions:
1). Hand luggage (unchecked luggage, refers to the luggage carried in the cabin)
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) stipulates that the size of boarding hand luggage is that the sum of the three sides (length + width + height) does not exceed 115cm (relevant dimensions include wheels, handles and side pockets). Generally refers to the trolley case of 20 inches and below. However, different airlines have different regulations on the size of boarding suitcases, depending on which airline you fly. It is recommended that you check the official website in advance or call for a consultation.
2) Checked luggage (the luggage that the passenger entrusts the airline to check in and has a luggage tag issued)
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) stipulates the size of checked luggage: (length + width + height) the sum of the three dimensions does not exceed 158cm (relevant dimensions include wheels, handles and side pockets). However, different airlines have different regulations on the size of checked luggage, depending on which airline you fly. It is recommended that you check the official website in advance or call for a consultation.
2. Luggage weight limit:
1). Hand luggage (unchecked luggage, refers to the luggage carried in the cabin)
Generally, the weight of the carry-on luggage is 5kg~7kg, and the weight of the check-in box for some international flights is 10kg. The specific weight needs to be based on the weight specified by the airline you are flying. It is recommended that you check the official website in advance or call for a consultation.
2). Checked luggage (the luggage that the passenger entrusts the airline to check in and has a luggage tag issued)
Generally, the total weight of checked luggage is 25kg~30kg. The specific weight needs to be based on the weight specified by the airline you are flying. It is recommended that you check the official website in advance or call for a consultation.
3. Restrictions on Checked Baggage Items
There must be no dangerous or prohibited items in your luggage. Dangerous goods generally refer to all items or substances that can pose a hazard to health, safety, property or the environment when transported by air. Not to mention contraband. These are all things you can't take on a plane.
