Tools / Baggage weight

Baggage weight checker

Weighed your bags at home? Check them against your airline allowance before you get to the airport, in kilograms or pounds.

Allowances depend on your airline, route and ticket. Check yours on your booking or the airline's website. Nothing you enter is saved or sent.

Good to know

• Many airlines allow 23 kg (about 50 lb) per checked bag in economy on long-haul flights, but some count total weight instead. Check your ticket.
• Airline scales can differ from home scales by a little. Leave a kilogram or two spare.
• Extra weight is usually much cheaper to buy online before you fly than at the airport.
• Put medicines, documents, chargers and valuables in your cabin bag.
