Travel ritual: my luggage
 |
| my usual luggage |
To me, the most worrisome part of traveling comes before any of the
traveling actually occurs: the suitcase-packing process. It's a
challenging and anxiety-filled process - I am caught between wanting my
suitcase to be light
and worrying I am going to need every single item in my bedroom - Laura Marano

International baggage rules
Always check with the airline before travelling: how many and what size bags I can takeInternational flights varies from airline to airline. Generally,
- the checked-in luggage weight limit may range between 20-23kg, and allow 1, and often 2, pieces of checked luggage per passenger
- carry-on baggage should have maximum length of 56cm, width of 45cm and depth of 25cm (dimensions include wheels, handles, side pockets...), weight limit may range between 7-8kg, and to board with 1 personal item and 1 piece of carry-on
=> carry-on baggage also varies according to the airline, the cabin class and the size of the aircraft
