Emirates Airlines - Can somebody help???
By sakib12345 •
I used to know that emirates airlines allowed 40 Kg of baggage allowance for doha to dhaka. As i wanted to take a look at the Dubai airport i booked a ticket for me on this airlines.
Suddenly as i was not sure about the baggage allowance i called emirates airlines & checked their website also. both says they allow 30 Kg. Now my baggage is already around 40 Kg and my ticket has already been confirmed. is there anyway i can extend 30 kg to 40 kg without paying the charge??
is there anyone who can help me with a good answer?? All your good advices are appreciated.
guys, this is for sure that i m getting 40 kgs as my travel agency contacted emirates and the guy replied 40 kgs to dhaka via e-mail.they gave me a copy of that mail. \m/
thank u very much happygolucky, ntasa, naghmaimran and every1.
sakib12345... thanks for posting the information from Qatar Airways...shall be useful....:) Have a nice flight.
dear,
as mentioned above all major airlines follow the baggage regulations such as:
allowance of
20kgs for economy
30kgs for business
and
40kgs for first class
there is addition 10-15kgs allowance if you are Silver/Gold Member for frequent flyer programs, depending upon the airlines.
handcarry, most airlines allow 7Kgs.
Bur in practice, its all depending upon the flight route and these rules are being bend in favor of airline revenue generations etc.
I have seen qatar airways india/pakistan/bangladesh routes ppl taking even 60Kgs without charge. So its all very much depends on the route and the mood of the check-in counter manager.
if ur travelling agencies says they will allow, Yes they will .. but don't just count on it. your ticket will be imprinted 20kgs only.
knowledge sharing is caring
ok thats good ...have a nice flight
ok thats good ...have a nice flight
naghmaimran.....i didnt cancel my flight yet....and i have been informed that if i cancel i have to pay Qrs 200 for cancelling and confirming Qatar Airways ticket. But i wont as i have been confirmed by my travel agency that i will be allowed 40 Kg.

sakib12345 ... Qatarairways allowas 40kgs for economy class plus 7kgs handbag .... but if u cancell from EMIRATES
you have to pay cancalition fee which will be more then your extra baggae fee
galloper48...... i booked my ticket from an agency and this agency is under the company i work for..Qatar Navigation..i have finished my 2 yr contract so no the company is providing me the ticket....
my uncle is in the HR department and he confirmed this information..now as this agency is under our company i dont think this guys will lied to my uncle...and if he does...i dont think he will be have his job the next day if the information turns out wrong...lol
besides i think there is some conditions between our agency and the airline companies for y they confirmed 40 kilos.
just to be on the safe side why don't you call the emirates airlines office and find out directly from them; I guess this would be better that relying on the agent (I'm not implyig is a bad agent!!!)
Regards!!
happygolucky..... I called Qatar Airways and the said they allow a total of 47 Kg including the handbag but on the other side i got a confirmation from the travel agency where i booked my ticket that Emirates airlines will allow the same as qatar airways...thank u all!!!
happygolucky.....my relatives are always flying Qatar airways and they r getting 40 Kg every time but as ur advice i will call them to confirm...thnx
sakib12345....my understanding is that 2 pieces each not exceeding 23 kgs. is applicable for transatlantic flights. On all other flights it is limited to 20 kgs. in respect of Economy class travel. Anyways, since you are planning to cancel emirates and book through Qatar airways better to call them and ask them the allowance for your sector.
you are right lulu tariq
happygolucky /-a-t-/ I think u have made a mistake some where. i have visited Qatar Airways website. Its says 40 Kg in 2 pieces if i m not mistaken. see it for urself :

anyways thanks for ur information.
If you are travelling fisrt class 40 Kgs. for check in baggage on Qatar Airways is OK. However, if you are travelling Economy Class I think its 20 kgs. for check in baggage and 7 Kgs. of hand baggage.
then its better i cancel the flight. i already got an information that if i cancel and book a ticket on Qatar airways i will have to pay Qrs 200 additional. Its better paying Qrs 200 additional then paying Qrs 550 @ 55/kg. Qatar airways allows 40 kg.thats what i found on their site.I m a 1st tym traveler from Qatar
thank u for ur words.
My friend as far as I know...there is no chance ..if they said 30 then will be 30!! I had this experience with them before and you must follow their rules.
Have a nice flight!
