Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Airlines enforce Australia's 7-kilogram cabin bag limit
Most air travelers are aware that there are limitations to the number of items and the allowable dimensions for each item they can carry on with them to board their flight. But only a few of them know that there are also weight limitations to their carry-on items. That’s because the number and size limitations are regularly enforced at the gate. You might have seen a boarding passenger arguing with the ground crew about a suitcase or a microwave oven that they are trying to bring in with them. But there are in fact maximum weight allowances for carry-on items, especially for economy class passengers. How strictly the regulations are enforced seems to depend on the airline, the season, and the ground crew. But during holiday seasons, too many passengers try to carry too many and too much items with them to avoid waiting at the luggage pick-up. Of course, everyone wants to get out of the destination airport as soon as the flight arrives hurrying to their homes or hotels.
So, what if the airline has decided to strictly enforce the weight restrictions on your carry-on bags? Checking in your luggage at the gate is the last thing you want to do, isn’t it?
Enjoy reading and reorganize your luggage for your next air travel.
