I was concerned at the reduction in baggage allowances on American Airlines, as we are making two trips in the next couple of months, so just to clarify what Tamara said about luggage on American. The 40lb max is on carry-on baggage. You can also have 2 checked pieces each weighing up to 50lb. International allowances vary according to the country to which you are flying. Contact an American Airlines representative at 1-800-433-7300 for specifics.
The following was cut and pasted from the American website: <For flights wholly within the United States and between the United States and Canada The maximum amount of baggage each ticketed passenger is allowed free of charge is: 2 pieces checked and one carry-on Please note that one carry-on personal item (see "Carry-on Allowance") does not count toward the free bag allowance. The size limitation of your luggage is calculated by adding the total outside dimensions of each bag, that is, length + width + height. Two checked bags at 62 in/157 cm each One carry-on bag at 45 in/114 cm The maximum weight per checked bag is 50 lbs/23 kgs. The maximum weight per carry-on bag is 40 lbs/18 kgs. > Sue [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED]
