What is the Weight Allowance for Luggage

We will be travelling to the United Kingdom in June and want to know the weight of Luggage we are allowed, I have heard so many different weights and don't want to be charged for being overweight.

I believe you can get that information on each airline's website. I know BA has it and it is different for the class you are flying.

If you are travelling to the UK from North America, then the baggage allowance is the same for all passengers - 2 pieces x 32kg.

Hand baggage will vary depending what class you are travelling in.

I don't know the specific weight or dimensional allowances, but I suggest that when you pack for your trip, you do not use all the room that you are allowed. If you do this, then you will have room to put the souvenirs that you will buy.

If you are flying any of the budget airlines in Europe like Ryanair, check really carefully. This is how they make their money.
