Don't pay excess baggage fees, check before you fly

Welcome to the baggage allowance site, our goal is to provide you with easily accessible information on baggage allowance limitations. We are a non-profit organisation so we will never ask you for fees to use our site.

When travelling to an international destination you need to make sure that all goods that you require for your journey are packed. This however does mean checking that the packed items are not regarded as prohibited by official travel government bodies. The rules on which items are prohibited and which are allowed change for each continent. So before travelling to the airport make sure that you do not have any prohibited items and also check those items are not prohibited at your arrival destination as they will be confiscated and you will not be compensated for them.

During check-in the most common problem that travellers encounter is that their baggage is in breach of the airlines policy. This is usually due to travellers not being given the correct information about their limitations. This is the problem that BaggageAllowance.org tries to solve by providing the traveller with the most relevant and crucial information needed prior to travel.

It's simple to use the Baggage Allowance site as there are no forms, no flashy animation to confuse you, no unnecessary content just straight to the point relevant information that can be found by selecting the airline to the left of the page. Also make sure that you arrive on time for check in which usually begins 3 to 4 hours prior to travel. Why turn up late and waste all that time preparing for your holiday?
