Dear Admin, I'm travelling from Dammam to Baku through Abu Dhabi. Please advice: 1. If I can carry 55in QLED TV with the following package size dimension & weight (140.4 x 87.1 x 15.8 sm , 24.2 kg) 2. What charges I should expect to pay if there will be an additional baggage of 30 kg

Admin Reply :

Your have not mentioned the fare type you have bought. PLease note that for your route of flight, the free allowance in checkin bags does not exist for Economy Deal tickets. However, Economy Save and Classic passengers are allowed 30 kg check in baggage with dimensions limits of up to 207 cm in sum of dimensions. Economy Flex passengers are allowed 35 kg free allowance. 

Carrying additional 30 kg has to be paid USD 690. If you book baggage online and 30 hours prior to flight departure time, then a 20% discount can be availed.

Now, since the TV is oversized but less than 300 cm in sum of dimensions, it can be taken on payment of additional charges of USD 60 as given in content above.

I’m traveling from New York to Hyderabad in business class. I would like to carry a 55 inch tv where the total dimensions are coming around 250. I’m allowed to carry 2*32kg, can you please advise if I need to buy excess baggage.

Admin Reply :

If TV is the third baggage and weight is up to 23 kg, then since size is more than 158 cm but less than 300 cm, charges have to be paid. Charge would be USD 256 at airport for carrying it. Online booking of extra baggage can get you 20% discount.

Hi I plan to carry 43 inch tv from chicago to Bangalore. [Flight has a stop in abu dhabi for couple of hours ]. My ticket booking is under economy standard. Can you let me know the charges if any ? Does it differ for 50inch tv?

Admin Reply :

It can be carried as a part of free baggage allowance if this lies within permitted allowance limits by size (linear dimensions), number of check in bags and weight. Charges are leviable if the linear dimensions of the baggage are more than 158 cm or you are carrying more than 2 check in bags in all or the weight of any bag is more than 23 kg.

Admin Reply :

Your check in allowance is of 40 kg in economy class ticket. Therefore, it is okay to take 2 bags of 20 kg each in check in. However, if you are taking another 10 kg in check in , then it has to be paid for. 1 backpack of up to 7 kg weight is fine in cabin.

Admin Reply :

You have not mentioned the place of origin of flight. Excess 1 bag of 23 kg has charges of USD 250 to 300 depending on place of origin of flight. 

Your sport equipment can be carried as a part of check in baggage provided the weight is less than 32 kg and size is less than 300 cm (sum of l+B+H). If you are going to make a fourth check in bag of these items, then only excess baggage fee applies.

I am a seaman ( with a seamans book) & I am flying from Amsterdam to Harare and I need to buy an extra bag above the 40kg allowed. How much is the cost?

Admin Reply :

We do not think Etihad provides special baggage allowances for seamen. You have to tell us how much weight would be excess. If you buy excess baggage online 48 hours before flight time, you get the rates of USD 128, USD 256, USD 384, USD 512, USD 640, USD 768 and USD 896 for 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 kg of excess baggage respectively.

Admin Reply :

35 kg has to be taken in 2 check in bags because single check in bag can not be more than 32 kg in weight. Cardboard cartons are allowed as check in bags in general but some airlines might restrict it. If you can bring a proper check in bag, it would be good. Cartons shall be flat bottomed and not irregular in shape. These shall not be tied around by any fabric or ropes or any such thing which makes them irregular in shape.

Hi, we are family of 4 traveling from Abu Dhabi to Philippines. Will our baggage be counted per person or will be weigh in altogether as long as each box will not exceed the 32 kg allowance? I am asking because we are planning to have less number of luggage/boxes as long as we consume the 160 kg allowance for all of us.

From Abu Dhabi to Philippines, allowance is 40 kg for economy travelers and since it is weight based, the check in baggage allowances of people  flying on same PNR can be clubbed. You are right that each check in bag shall not be more than 32 kg in weight.

You have to check the size of TV package. If L+B+H is less than 207 cm for routes not involving Americas, then it can be taken in check in for free within the weight limit of your allowance. If weight is more than allowance, excess charges will apply.

Hii, I m travelling from Kuwait to new Delhi may I know how many luggage carry and total weight allow I just confirm that's why I text you because my ethihad ticket already mention 40 kg allow my flight economy class plz reply asp

Admin Reply :

40 kg is the check in baggage allowance for Business class on Etihad ticket for your route. Since one check in bag can not be more than 32 kg, you have to bring 2 check-in bags. Economy class tickets have baggage allowance of max 35 kg for Economy Flex fares. 

Anyways, since one check in bag can not be more than 32 kg, you have to take 2 check in bags of given dimensions (less than 207 cm in linear dimensions)

Hi! I'm traveling from England to Philippines via Abu Dhabi. Can I put my laptop in another bag aside from my 7kg hand luggage and personal bag?

Since cabin bags are counted quite discreetly, we would suggest that you keep these at 1 cabin bag + 1 personal item, if travelling economy class.

I will be travelling to Dusseldorf ( Germany ) via Abu Dhabi from Kolkata by Etihad Airways.Can I carry 30kg checked-in baggage,7kg cabin baggage and back-pack for laptop ?

Admin Reply :

Yes, you are right. Economy Deal, Saver and Classic fare choices allow you to bring 30 kg check in baggage, Economy Flex ticket allows you 35 kg in check in baggage (to be taken in 2 bags as single can not be more than 30 kg). 

7 kg cabin baggage is fine.

Laptop bag shall be of standard size in which only laptop can be kept. If you bring back pack, it will depend on airline officials at airport whether to accept this as a personal item or not.

If ticket has been booked through some agency, then allowance might not be updated. We believe it shall be 30 kg or 35 kg depending on which fare class in Economy has been booked. However, this shall not be 45 kg in 2 check in bags. For further confirmation, please contact the airline directly.

Admin Reply :

Your check in baggage allowance on Etihad is based on weight system and you are allowed to carry a total weight of 40 kg (in 2 check in bags) per person for this route. THerefore, if you are taking 46 kg total, there is an excess of 6 kg for which the excess charges will have to be paid. If you buy a slab of 5 kg online, USD 100 will have to be paid.

This shall ideally be carried in check in baggage, not in cabin. However, if it is within permitted weight and size limits of cabin baggage allowance, and is the only cabin baggage you want to take on consideration of being fragile, you can speak to the airline officials at the airport ahead of your travel date to avoid last minute hassles.

The size of item to be carried in check in baggage for free shall not be more than 207 cm in sum of dimensions. Economy class passengers have to pay a small fee to access the Lounges. Alcohol is okay to carry when you are not to leave the airport. Generally, 2 litres is considered to be a safe limit and shall be bought duty-free.

Hi There, Im Travelling Economy from Australia to Europe later this year and need help to understand the cabin baggage dimension limits. On the website it states that you can take 1 x cabin bag with a maximum weight of 7kg and maximum dimensions of (50cm x 40cm x 25cm) or 115. Does this mean that it can only be something that fits in that size? or can I bring something that fits within the linear dimensions? ( 65cm x 25cm x 17cm) or 107 total. It is a musical instrument. Thanks

Admin Reply :

It is the linear dimension which is counted. Musical instruments can be carried in cabin if these are within the allowance limits.

We do not think that the current baggage allowance allows 23 kg check in baggage allowance. IF this is a ticket booked from agency, then their systems are not updated with current baggage allowance. Current baggage allowance is 40 kg in check in for economy class (to be taken in 2 check in bags).

If its a economy deal, saver or classic ticket, allowance is 30 kg. If its a Economy flex ticket, 35 kg is the allowance. So, this depends on which fare class in economy are your flying? If it is 35 kg allowance for you, this has to be taken in two check in bags as a single one can not be more than 32 kg.

Etihad allows carriage of LED TV within permitted weight and size limits of check in baggage. So, if you are allowed 40 kg in check in baggage and check in baggage size shall be max 207 cm, then TV packaging shall have sum of dimensions less than 207 cm and its weight shall be well within the 40 kg weight limit. Since one check in bag can not be more than 32 kg weight, you will have to take 2 check in bags for a total of 40 kg weight.

What is the check in bag allowance for my return flight from Rome back to Johannesburg South Africa on Etihad Airways? I was allowed 40kg on the outbound flight so it should be the same fir my return flight. Just checking ...

The check in baggage allowance on flight from Europe to Africa on economy ticket allows you to take 23kg, 30 kg and 35 kg depending on whether the ticket booked was Eco Deal, Saver/Classic or Flex respectively. It is not 40 kg.

Admin Reply :

Airline will allow carriage of LED TV so long as it does not breach the size of permitted check in baggage allowance. If weight exceeds, excess baggage charges will have to be paid. So, sum of dimensions shall be less than 207 cm for LED TV packing. We can not say about customs duties at airport. For this, you will have to enquire yourself.
