Its just cloths and stuff but Ive been here for a year so I have a lot of luggage but can´t fly with all of it because of high excess baggage costs in the airline

Im planning to leave Singapore to Turkey for a year or more. What is the maximum luggage weight I can take?

Vibe asked:


If Im not wrong it’s 20kg… thats far too little. Is there any way I can stretch this or get avoid paying excess baggage charges?

How much will it be if my luggage is way heavier than the permitted 20kg?

Im trying to work out how much it costs the airline, not how much it costs me per airline. They must have a figure to know how much to charge for excess baggage.

Thanks in advance people :)

I am flying to Delhi from Manchester Airport, using alitalia (stop-off at Milan) - the luggage limit is 20kg and my luggage weighs 40kg! With a excess baggage charge of 11€ per kg, I obviously want to avoid paying excess baggage charges if at all possible - does anyone here have any suggestions on how to re-pack, how to avoid paying or any cheaper methods of getting my luggage to India? Thank you!

Why am I only allowed to carry the same weight of luggage as much heavier passengers?

P.Gill asked:


Wouldn’t it be fairer if it was based on total weight of person and luggage?

The reason that I ask is that I recently had to pay excess baggage on my return from a bicycle touring trip. My bike and other gear weighed in at 37kgs.

I then spent the next 8hrs shoehorned between two larger passengers who individually would have weighed more than myself and my luggage.

If the reason you have to pay excess baggage is the weight of the articles then logically the weight of the passengers themselves contributes to this.
