Admin Reply :

You will have to either check which airline provides the good student baggage allowance or will have to pay for carrying excess baggage. We have a blog post listing some of the airline and their policies on student baggage allowance, which is above the free check in allowance that they normally get. 

Please go through this.

For Air India, the check in baggage allowance is 25 kg per adult or child passenger and 10 kg for infant.

If yes, please let me know the documents required at the time of check in and the procedure. I will be obliged. (As per Govt. Of India Min of Civil aviation letter AV1805088/2013-AI dated 04 Nov 13 and Air India letter No. HO/ 12-89(1)/ 606 dated 29 Aug 13, Hindustan Times news paper dated 22 Apr 2012.

This seems to be an old document and the policy might have changed. However, if there is a special allowance for Central govt employees, this is to be known directly by your department as there could be an internal arrangement. We are not aware of any such special allowances.

How much weight am I allowed to carry as a student travelling from India to Melbourne via Delhi . Also , what would be the charge for excess weight? Also , am I allowed to carry a backpack along with my cabin bag ? Please let me know the exact charges . Also , I’d be really greatful if you could let me know Air India’s customer support number as none of the toll free numbers are reachable .

Admin Reply :

Students have 20 kg additional baggage allowance. It would be good to take just the cabin bag, not the backpack as well. How much excess do you want to take in check in luggage. You have all numbers here: http://www.airindia.in/customer-support.htm

Whether through check in would be provided or not depends on a number of factors. You can request for the same at the airline airport office during check in. But, we do not think this would be possible because you might have to clear the customs etc at Delhi airport. Still, check with the airline.

You need to check this with the airline. If medicines have to be used during the flight, then these are allowed. However, if these are not to be used, then airline will tell whether it will allow additional cartidges or not. It would be good if you could bring the medical prescription alongwith as well.

Your allowance is 2 bags of 32 kg each in check in baggage and 1 cabin bag of up tp 8 kg is free. Laptop shall be carried in laptop bag.

on Air India flight economy class, from Sydney to Delhi, can i check in two small pieces of baggage instead of one larger suitcase? Overall weight of both pieces of baggage is well within 25 kg.

Admin Reply :

Free baggage allowance is based on weight for your route. This allows carriage of more than one check in bag within overall weight limits. So, 2 small bags instead of 1 can be allowed. From Australia to India, the check in baggage allowance is 30 kg for economy and 40 kg for business class travel per passenger.

Please do ensure that the total size of each check-in bag is well within limits of linear dimensions, that is 62 inches or 158 cm.

Is this the case for BLR to HBX on the Alliance segment as well?

If it is on the single ticket, and the connecting flight is provided by the airline, then international allowance would be acceptable on the final leg as well. It is also applicable for Alliance Air flights. Please note that the Alliance Air flights with ATR planes might not have enough space which might limit you baggage allowances.

Hi, thanks for providing good information. If I plan to take a 49 inch TV from Mumbai to Delhi by Air India or any other domestic carrier, then does the carrying policy of 158 cm i.e 62 inch is on size of TV or overall package of TV i.e including box. I believe if 49 inch TV is kept in box, the size may increase. Does it mean that the size of longest side of box should not increase above 158 cm or they only look size of TV which is 49 inch? Further, does Air India charges additional charges if 49 inch TV is carried apart from excess baggage charges as indigo does i.e. Rs 1000? Thanks

158 cm is sum of dimensions of the check in baggage. If it is within this size limit, there is no extra charge.

This is allowed but it depends on space. Further, your kid is more than 2 years, so airline might have reservation allowing buggy  in cabin. We would suggest that you contact the local airline office in this respect. Otherwise, carrying it in checkin is always fine.

We gave you information based on our interaction with the Air India representatives as well. 42 inches TV limit is for domestic flights within India. For international flights, this limit is relaxed. 

Anyways, we would not want you to be trouble at airport. Therefore, please take 42 inches TV only and do ask them at airport about the max TV screen size limit allowed. This will also confirm whether the AI chat representative was well aware or not about the policy, or has there been a change in policy.
