Find your real allowance
- Look at your e-ticket or booking for the baggage line, often shown in kilograms or number of pieces.
- Allowance depends on airline, route and fare type. Two people on the same flight can have different allowances.
- Check the official site of your airline: PIA, airblue, SereneAir, AirSial.
Hand luggage
- Keep passport, tickets, medicines, money and valuables with you.
- Power banks and spare lithium batteries usually must travel in hand luggage, not checked bags.
- Liquids on international flights are typically restricted in volume. Ask your airline.
Checked bags
- Weigh bags at home. Re-packing at the counter is stressful.
- Label each bag with your name and phone number, inside and out.
- Food items, especially meat, dairy and seeds, may be restricted by the destination country's customs.
If a bag goes missing
Report it at the airline's baggage desk before leaving the arrivals hall, and keep your baggage tag receipt.
