| Hi,
Could someone please tell me how many suitcases each person is allowed? Is every airline different?

| Hi
Same here, we always fly scheduled, one of the reasons is the baggage allowance is far more generous.
We returned from Orlando at the end of May.
Our flights were with Delta and we were allowed 2 suitcases each weighing up to 22.5kgs per case.
We were also allowed up to 18kg carry on baggage each.
In total we were allowed 63kgs !
You will have to look at each airline to see their allowances, but I know the charter flights we looked at were much lower.
We all used our full entiltement after many shopping trips to the malls and stores !!!!

| The number of cases to & from the US is regulated and the min is not an airline option; from memory you are allowed 2 cases in the hold per person, the weight has been dropped recently for safety reasons. The carry on baggage is not regulated and can vary by airline and airport , I've recently been taking 2 carry on bags from T5 !
It is always woth checking the airlines baggage allownace before booking if it is an issue.. |

| | Thanks for your help everyone, I'm flying with Thomas Cook and I think my baggage is restricted to 20kg, which isn't very good compared to some other airlines. | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

I would check this if I were you, Claire, as my son flew with them last week and it was one suitcase weighing only 15kg. You could pay extra to increase this. |
