I am traveling from Manchester to Bangkok, transit at Bahrain. Economy light. Weight limit is 23 kg. Is Gulf Air strict with the luggage weight? Will I be charged if my luggage is slightly overweight (like 23.1 kg)? And how will they calculate the fee for excess weight? It is $200 per kg or $200 no matter how many kg over?

Admin Reply :

Yes, airlines are strict with the weight since it is an opportunity to make more money. So, please keep it within limit. It is $200 for extra bag of up to 23 kg.

Hello, I am a student from Philippines flying to US and I will have my stopover in Bahrain. My question is that aside from my 2 existing baggage (23kg each), am I still eligible for another free 23 kg baggage allowance? If yes, can I just use it instead to add to my other two baggages but will not exceed 32kg each luggage? so I don’t have to have 3 luggages in total? Is that possible?

Admin Reply :

Yes, as per the terms of the airline published on their website, if you are flying economy and are stopping in Bahrain, you have an additional 23 kg allowance. Since it is an allowance system based on piece-system, you shall be able to carry it in a separate piece of bag only, not to be divided among the existing two bags. So, it is better to take the third one to avoid hassles at airport.

Hi.. I am a student travelling from my home country (Kochi) to University country (London) in Economy Light. Am I eligible for the student offer provided by the Gulf air, that is upto 23kg extra baggage? Or is this offer applicable for only Economy gold?

Admin Reply :

We are assuming that Kochi is on the networks of Gulf air. If you are flying economy class from Kochi, and are stopping in Bahrain, then you are eligible for 1 additional free check in bag of 23 kg.

Otherwise, if you are neither flying from Bahrain nor stopping there but are flying from one of its network stations, then you are eligible for 9 kg extra weight in existing check-in bag subject to the condition that these shall not be more than 2 check in bags and each bag shall not  have more than 32 kg weight.

Does the checked in bag has to have a spesific shape. I have to use one soft bag of 23kg, will it be accepted

Admin Reply :

The only requirement is that the check-in bag shall be either the regular check-in baggage which passenger normally carry, or if it any other thing, then it shall have flat surfaces. Irregular shapes of bag pose problems in security screening and also in carriage. We are not very sure about what type of soft bag you are carrying.

I understand that 2 items of 23kg each are allowed as a Checked Baggage allowance. As I intend to take Golf Clubs, with me for which the protective bag will be bigger in size, will that be accepted as one of the Checked item of my allowance, or do I have to pay additional charges for that ? Your clarification and confirmation will be appreciated.

You can take the Golf bag free of cost and in addition to the free allowance check in baggage, but the weight has to be up to 15kg. You will be allowed to bring one golf bag containing one set of clubs, balls, one pair of golf shoes and one umbrella,

Hello I’m a student , I have booked my flight from Bangalore to Berlin via gulf air , so from Bangalore to Bahrain and to Istanbul it’s given gulf airlines and from Istanbul to Berlin if has gulf air flight number but it’s given Turkish airlines , do I have to change the load the luggages again in Istanbul or directly at Berlin ? And since I’m a student can I carry extra 23kg bag other than the free baggage provided ? ( 23 kgs of 2 bags ) Your answer would be helpful !

Admin Reply :

You must check with the Gulf Air whether it will provide 'through check in' right up to Istanbul so that you do not have to collect and then re-checkin baggage. Secondly, University students are allowed additional free check-in bag of up to 23 kg but only on Gulf Air operated flights. So, you might have to pay charges for excess baggage when the airline changes to Turkish.

Hi, I am traveling to (India) Hyderabad, can I use cardboard box in check in baggage. 1 piece allowed or 2 piece. my ticket is economic basic. Thanks.

Admin Reply :

If you are carrying cardboard carton as check in baggage, till recently the airline was asking not to carry other check in bags along with one carton. Whether that policy is now changed and it is allowing regular check in bags along with the cardboard boxes is not clear. Please this clarification from the airline.

You have to check for the size and dimensions of the car package. If this is within the permitted allowance limits of 158 cm in L+B+H, then it can be taken for free. If this is within the overall weight limit allowance for you, there is nothing to be paid. Otherwise, if total weight is more than free allowance, then excess baggage fee will apply as well.

You have not mentioned the route of flight and cabin class of travel. TV of this size is allowed to be taken in check in baggage provided the weight and linear dimensions are also within permitted allowance limits. Whether 1 bag of up to 23 kg is allowed or not along with TV for free can be told only when we know the route and cabin class of your travel.

I'm confused, we booked out tickets in June, flying out to Philippines from Heathrow via Bahrain shortly, then back again in 2020, we were advised 2x23kg checked in each when husband called Gulf air customer support, but you are saying 1x23kg each. Who is right as cannot afford the extra charges plus will not be able to repack & store two suitcases if information is wrong.

Admin Reply :

You have read the policy wrong on our site. It mentions the baggage policy which is effective from 1 November 2019. If tickets have been booked in June, the old allowance policy applies. Please go by what the customer care of the airline has mentioned.

Admin Reply :

Gulf Air previously had this policy of not allowing one carton box and one check-in baggage on its routes. However, this seems to have gone for most of the routes except for some India-bound routes of the airline. 

We think you would be allowed to take 1 carton box (which is not irregular in shape) and 1 check-in bag since your flight is Philippines bound. The carton box size linear dimensions shall not be more than 62 linear inches. However, for better confirmation, you shall also speak to the airline customer service agent at the departure airport.

Dear Sir, For your information i am travelling from Riyadh to Hyderabad ( India ) I want to carry two pieces 5 kg each zamzam water. As per your policy 23+23 = 46 kgs. i will carry my lagguage of 36 kg and 10 kg of zamzam water whole = 46 kg. so, i want to know whether this is possible. Need your suggestion please. Akram

Admin Reply :

At first, we are not the Gulf Air airlines. We are an independent website providing helpful airline information to travelers. You can take 5 litres zam zam water in addition to free check-in baggage allowance. Your allowance in economy check-in is 2 bags of 23 kg each. So, you can take 5 litres zamzam water either within this allowance or in addition to it. Do not exceed the weight limit from 23 kg in one check-in bag, else you will have to pay charges.

My sister is travelling tomorrow from Ruh to bahrain, is there any changes in luggage policy as they make 2 regular boxes, are they allowed as we received news that now that they cannot tskem. Please update

Admin Reply :

Are you planning to take the carton boxes? If yes, it would be good if you could avoid taking these and take proper check in bags instead. 

Please note that combination of 1 proper luggage and 1 carton box will not be accepted in combintation. There is no ban on carton boxes as such but these have to flat bottomed, shall not be of irregular shape and shall not be tied around with ropes or fabric (which makes the box irrengular shaped). 

For better clarity, please check with the airline as well.

No single check in bag shall be more than 32 kg. So, if you want to carry 40 kg, it has to be in two check in bags of given sum of dimensions. And, you will have to pay excess baggage charges for brining more weight that your ticketed allowance.
