Are you allowed to have a 50 lb suitcase plus another suit case that is less on an airplane?

Question

I know your suit case cant be more than 50 pounds but are you able to have another one that is less than 50 lbs too or do they both have to be a max of 50 lbs together???

Answer 1

Not all airlines will allow you two suit cases, and if you are on a long haul flight that is probably the case. Check with your airline to be sure, you can do that on-line. If you can have two suit cases, each has to be 50lbs or less. Keep this in mind, two 50lb suit cases and a carry on is a lot of luggage for one person to move around. You will find it very difficult to get from one point to another. Most people travel with less than half that much, and for very long periods. No offense but if you need that much luggage you have packed too much. Remember, you need space to bring things back too.

Still you need to check your airlines rules as they are all different.

Have a good trip.

Answer 2

No. Each suitcase has to 50 lbs or under. Your are aloud to have 2 suitcases and one carry one. Just in case, you should double check on the airline website. Hope this helps!

Answer 3

If the airline you're traveling on allows you 2 pieces of luggage then each piece must be 50 lbs or less each.

Check with your airlines to make sure of the luggage restrictions (some airlines only allow you one bag of 50 lbs).

Happy travels!

Answer 4

If you're going on a legacy carrier in the U.S. like American and Continental, each bag has to be 50 lbs. or under for it to be FREE. Over 50 lbs. would cost you a fee. Usually like $50.

Answer 5

yes as checked bags, but to make sure check with your airline by going to their website or making a phone call to them...

Have a nice trip!
