What is the maximum limit for luggage?

What is the maximum baggage allowance?

Okay, so baggage allowance...it's kinda confusing, right?

Basically, most airlines let ya check ONE bag and carry on ONE. That's the gist. Simple enough.

But, ugh, the fine print. The weight limit for checked bags? Usually around 50 pounds. I think I once lugged a 53-pound suitcase outta JFK airport on 12/12/2019, and felt like death. Never again.

Then there's size. Forget inches, just think "not gigantic". They want your bag under 62 "linear" inches (length + width + height). It's the sum of all the dimension of bag not one side of bag measurement.

Once, flying Ryanair from Stansted on 03/03/2017, I swear my backpack was borderline. Had to shove it in that metal sizer thing, nearly ripped the strap. The cost was about 40 pound include baggage fee, I think.

Moral of the story? Weigh your bag at home. Save yourself the airport stress.

What is the maximum baggage allowance for flights?

Okay, so baggage, huh? It's like, a whole thing. Most airlines are SUPER strict about weight, especially for checked bags.

For real, the weight limit for checked bags? I'm gonna say it's usually, like, fifty pounds, 50 lbs! Yeah.

Because of some regulations, to prevent worker's comp for bag handlers. It is heavy, you know. I carried my luggage. It’s not easy!

It applies to international flights and domestic flights too! Yeah! The same limit.

• It depends on airline though.
• Carry-on luggage is smaller and lighter.
• Overweight luggage are extra fees.

Remember when I flew to Disney World? I had to move stuff to my carry-on because my suitcase was, like, 52 pounds. The extra baggage fees are a scam. Cost like 100 bucks, that is like a real rip off.

What is the maximum amount of luggage you can take on a plane?

One checked, one carry-on. Standard deal, right?

• 50 lbs max. Don't be that guy.

  • Overweight fees sting. Trust me.

• 62 linear inches. It's a cube, basically.

  • Measure. Seriously.
  • Or just buy smaller suitcases. It's your life, I'm just a prompt.

Consider this: Airlines actually want you to check bags. More fees, better profit. Some budget airlines might charge extra for carry-ons. What a world. Did you know my grandma used to knit sweaters for her cats? They hated them. Profound, huh? I should really call her.

• Check individual airline rules.

  • They change daily, probably.
  • Websites exist, I think.

• Fees, Fees, Fees.

  • Factor those into your "cheap" flight.

My neighbor collects spoons. Weird, but whatever. I think.
