Flight baggage rules explained
A simple checklist for understanding cabin baggage, checked baggage and extra charges.
Guide
Baggage rules depend on the airline, fare family, route and sometimes the aircraft or operating carrier. Do not assume that every ticket includes the same allowance.
Before booking, look for the baggage allowance shown with the fare. Check the number of pieces, weight limits and whether a personal item or cabin bag is included.
If you need extra baggage, compare the total cost before payment. Buying baggage in advance can have different conditions from paying at the airport, so read the provider's current rules.
Frequently asked questions
Is checked baggage always included?
No. It depends on the airline and fare conditions.
Where can I confirm baggage?
Use the fare details or the airline/booking provider's final booking page before payment.
Before you travel
