MaprangHolmes Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 On air India you have a checked in baggage allowance of 30KG but I am unable to find out, how many bags you are allowed to check in? Could you for example spread the allowance over 3 days so each bag would weigh 10KG? Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post crumpled Posted October 29, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2013 3 bags should be no problem. Lugging them about can be, especially if you are going via Mumbai airport where madness reigns supreme. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 From what i have seen at Swampy , one Sony TV set per passenger is allowed too on the Indian or Bangladeshi airlines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooloomooloo Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Could you for example spread the allowance over 3 days so each bag would weigh 10KG? What does three days mean? Or do you mean spread over three bags? Notwithstanding, I wouldn't travel with Air India if you paid me and increased the baggage allowance to 50k. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 From what i have seen at Swampy , one Sony TV set per passenger is allowed too on the Indian or Bangladeshi airlines. Jet Airways' website says that they charge extra, for TVs >40-inches, on their flights out of Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICHONSTEVE Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I hope you realise that Air India and Jet Air India are different airlines. I don't think that Air India's baggage allowance is as generous as Jet's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torrens54 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 On the subject of International Airlines...... Have you good folk noticed a lot of highly discounted , even FREE one-way fares being offered by Tiger Air? I'm wondering, even if you manage to get one FOC (Free Of Charge) or heavily discounted, how much will it cost for the RETURN? Waded through all the bumf on their website but couldn't find anything. Given TIGER AIR's very Poor performance in the past, I'd be interested to see what you folks know about the latest deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaurene Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Air India never never, traveled with them one time and I was very worried if the plane could get off the ground, Indians checking in their baggage, they check in 3-5 huge coloured bags so over weight and carry on baggage loads of it and never ever see them being stopped. They buy so much in Thailand to take back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sometimewoodworker Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 On air India you have a checked in baggage allowance of 30KG but I am unable to find out, how many bags you are allowed to check in? Could you for example spread the allowance over 3 days so each bag would weigh 10KG?Unless specified airlines generally have either a simple weight limit or a piece limit with a maximum weight per piece.So if there is a simple weight limit you can split that into many pieces. On the other hand a piece limit you can only have that many pieces. An example of the piece limit is ANA, until may this year economy was 2 pieces max 23kg each. It is now 1 piece max 23kg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
