Having problems with overweight luggage is always frustrating. Coming to the airport and finding out at the registration desk that you exceeded luggage limits can lead to unpleasant situations beginning from a public ‘show’ of repacking your baggage and ending with extra fees that will give a gloomy start for your holidays. RoundBooking prepared a detailed guide on how to avoid such problems and be well-prepared before your trip.

First of all, be aware of two different types of baggage you can take with you: cabin luggage and checked one. The former one contains your personal belongings and is taken with you on the board of plane, while the latter is registered and kept in the baggage section of the aircraft.

The most important information that you should check before the departure is weight allowances of both types of luggage. They vary from one air company to another, therefore it is important to check out the website of the company you’re flying with beforehand.

The luggage allowances can also depend on the type of your flight - whether it is domestic or international. Another essential aspect that can influence your bag weight limits is the class you have a seat in. Business or VIP classes usually permit heavier luggage than economy one.

However, we perfectly understand that you want to take your best outfits to the trip you were so looking forward to. Our secret tip is to use ultralight luggage - it will enable you to take all of your favorite clothes and look brilliant on your summer holidays, and at the same time you will stay under the baggage weight limits.

RoundBooking wishes you a pleasant, safe and stress-free flight!
