Have you ever wondered whether you have more baggage allowances when travelling on an international flight or a domestic one? It’s common for people to assume that international flights offer higher maximums for checked luggage and carry-ons because of the longer duration. The truth is that the rules are precisely the same for both: each passenger is allowed to bring one personal item and one carry-on. Baggage allowances can vary widely. As a result, it’s essential to understand what you’re allowed to bring on the plane and how much is permitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The amount of baggage an airline will allow for a particular flight depends on the class you are flying. An airline’s baggage allowance can confuse customers, but it is essential to the overall travel experience. Indigo Airlines baggage allowance is specific regarding the weight and size of the bags that each traveller can bring on board. Here, we’ll explain what does and does not count as a piece of luggage when travelling with an Indigo airline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the most trusted names in the aviation industry, IndiGo Airlines<\/a> is a low-cost carrier based in Gurgaon. The airline was founded in 2005 by Rahul Bhatia and Rakesh Gangwal and has consistently grown ever since. India’s largest domestic airline, IndiGo has played a key role in changing the face of air travel in India. IndiGo prides itself on customer service, affordability, and an extensive route network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n IndiGo has simplified the check-in process for its passengers with its new web check-in facility, which allows customers to check-in online without standing in long queues to get their boarding passes. However, the next step is essential and must be followed precisely to ensure a smooth flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As per Indigo Airlines<\/strong> baggage allowance policies, passengers can take one checked bag and one personal item with them, and equipment and clothing do not count as separate items. Also, your carry-on baggage should fit in the overhead bin or under the seat in front of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The free checked baggage limit offered by Indigo Airlines has been capped at 15 kg for all domestic flights. For international flights to Bangkok, Kathmandu and Singapore, this limit is 20 kg, while for other international flights to Dubai and Muscat, the limit has been fixed at 30 kg. In addition, the dimensions (L + W + H) of a single piece of luggage are not permitted to exceed 158 cm or 62 inches, and IndiGo allows a maximum weight of 32 kg for one checked baggage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every passenger travelling through Indigo Airlines can carry one backpack and one personal belonging like a handbag, one laptop bag, one briefcase etc. According to airline policy, carry-on luggage must fit in the overhead bin or under the seat n in front of the flyer. All carry-on luggage must not weigh more than 7 kg, and its dimensions must not exceed 115 cm. The passenger should not require any assistance lifting the carry-on bag and putting it in the overhead bin during the journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In any case, when the baggage exceeds the weight allowed for the free allowance, the passenger is charged a uniform rate of \u20b9250 per kg, irrespective of the type of baggage, carry-on or checked in. However, it has been fixed at \u20b9525 per kg of extra baggage for international flights. In addition to the flat rate, Rs 1500 is charged if the luggage is more than 5 kg and weighs more than 10 kg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In order to facilitate the economical purchase of excess baggage, the following prepaid additional baggage slabs are offered by Indigo Airlines to international passengers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you wish to take on board a more oversized item that will fit securely in one seat, you will need to purchase an additional seat on that flight, subject to availability and applicable fares. However, Indigo reserves the right to refuse to carry any large item(s) that we believe may present a security risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A passenger who requires a fully collapsible wheelchair and crutches and braces or another prosthetic device may board items such as cabin baggage, provided the passenger is dependent on them. Indigo Airlines baggage allowance has limited liability in respect of fragile goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following items are considered particular goods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Indigo airline will levy a fee of INR 1200 (or equivalent in foreign currency) for domestic flights and INR 2500 (or equivalent in foreign currency) for international flights for any special baggage deposited as checked baggage. This charge will apply to any additional baggage charges as appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Indigo airline assumes no obligation to carry cash or jewellery but is subject to clearance by airport regulatory authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can carry musical instruments on domestic and international flights at no extra cost. If packed in a soft case, guitars may be considered hand baggage; however, other tools must be adequately packed and can only be carried in check-in baggage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Indigo does not consent to the carriage of pets or animals of any kind on its flights; However, guide dogs for the blind are exempt from this rule. In the case of a guide dog, the flyer must contact the airlines before the flight. It should be noted that the guide dog must be trained appropriately, muzzled and restrained and will not be seated for the flight duration. The traveller should bring a moisture-wicking mat to place under the dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Customers are solely responsible for transporting their handbags or personal belongings, and Indigo is not liable for any loss\/damage caused to the customer’s baggage. Any receipt of the baggage without complaint at the end of the journey shall be prima facie evidence that the baggage has been delivered correctly and in good condition. A Customer who leaves the baggage delivery area without notifying the Indigo airlines representative that the bag is lost or damaged shall be deemed to have received their bag correctly and in good condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Indigo airlines recommend that all medicines, valuables, fragile items, perishables and valuables (cameras, jewellery, money, electronics, etc.) be carried in Cabin Baggage and not in Checked Baggage. Indigo Airlines will not accept any responsibility for these items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Baggage allowance for air travel is something that all travellers are aware of. But, only a few of them know the rules and regulations behind it. As a result, they pay a few extra bucks to the airlines during check-in.
