US Airways Reservations

What are the Baggage limits on international flights with a connecting flight.?

I know the baggage limits for domestic and international flights. But my question is If I book an international flight and the itinerary contains a connecting flight then will the baggage rules of domestic flight (within USA) will apply or international rules.

  1. Good Question! You may find that if the connecting flight is with the same airline that they will allow a higher baggage allowance if arriving from an international flight. However, returning on the same itinerary, you may find it less easy to get a larger allowance when connecting from domestic to international. If you are travelling on a different airline, and it's not a true connecting flight, ie. you have to go through immigration etc..collect your baggage and check-in again, you will need to accept the lower baggage allowance, and the consequences of any excess charges. You maybe able to pre-book a higher allowance, which may save you money on the airport prices.
  2. Almost all airlines will allow the higher international allowance when you have a domestic connecting flight. Check with your airline of airline's website to be sure.
  3. Right now, there is no limit on baggage allowed on Int'l flights!!! Just don't make it obvisee that you are overpacking!!!
