Frequently Asked Questions
What is the standard checked luggage weight limit?
Most airlines allow 23 kg (50 lbs) per checked bag for economy class and 32 kg (70 lbs) for business/first class. Budget airlines may limit checked bags to 20 kg (44 lbs). Always verify with your specific airline before traveling.
How much do excess baggage fees cost?
Excess baggage fees typically range from $50 to $200+ depending on the airline and how much you exceed the limit. Fees are usually charged per kilogram over the limit, with rates between $10-$25 per kg. Pre-purchasing extra baggage online is usually cheaper.

Use a lightweight suitcase, wear your heaviest items on the plane, use packing cubes to organize and reduce volume, pack multi-purpose clothing, use travel-size toiletries, and weigh your bag at home before heading to the airport.
