What are the rules for carrying luggage on the plane now?

When preparing for an air flight, it is always worth remembering that there are certain conditions that must be observed. In particular, these are the rules for carrying baggage in an airplane. When you are going to fly, you need to divide all the things into two parts - those that you take with you to the salon (hand luggage), and those that you will take in your luggage. The latter is desirable to sign: attach the tag to the suitcase, where it will be written, to whom it belongs, flight number and mobile phone. In the event that your luggage is lost (this also happens), it will be easier to find it, which means that it will return quickly to the owner.

Different luggage types apply to suitcases of different types. In an airplane, you can carry things that weigh less than ten kilograms. In this case, the size of your luggage should not exceed certain standards. So, the parameters are 25x40x55 cm. But some airlines provide their own conditions, which it is desirable to familiarize with in advance. In the cabin you can also transport:

• Medicinal preparations (without which you can not do);
• Valuable things (documents, means of communication in the disconnected state, money);
• Children's or wheelchairs that fold;
• Baby food (without which you can not do).

In accounting for the total weight of these things do not go.

The suitcases that you will take in the luggage compartment, apply their own rules for carrying baggage on the plane. It all depends on the airline, and on what class you fly. If this is a business class, you can carry up to 32 kg of weight and up to 160 cm on the sum of three measurements. There are two places for luggage in the business class. In the economy class, there is only one place, and the total weight is allowed up to 23 kg. It is worth considering that if one of the suitcases does not fit the dimensions, and the second is less than the allowable rate, you will still have to pay for a suitcase that is not of the appropriate size. It is desirable to pack all things in packages (as well as a suitcase). Especially it concerns liquids, to which special norms apply.

The rules for carrying baggage in an airplane may vary depending on the company providing the services. Although there are standards operating on all airlines and flights. For example, the rules for carrying liquid in a plane are the same for all companies. By the way, to such things except for obvious and include toothpaste, and shaving foam. It is worth knowing that the vials are up to 100 ml (this applies to all cosmetic liquids: toilet water, perfume, make-up and care products). For one baggage that you take into the cabin of an airplane, you can not have more than one liter in total. This means that you will have to think in advance which specific means you really need. Remember: all liquids must be packed in a sealed bag (it must be transparent). All the rest can be delivered to the luggage compartment (in your own suitcase).

The rules for carrying liquids do not apply to goods purchased in duty free shops (Duty Free). This product is also not taken into account when weighing hand luggage. Enjoy your flights!
