Yes, you have understood the Captain right! It is 46kgs check in baggage and 7 Kgs as cabin baggage, so in effect it is a Total of 53 Kgs!!

In fact I had also booked, upon Biju Bhai's advice, this 'ETIHAD' ticket in Dec 11 and as a special promotion that time they gave an extra 7 Kgs for the checked in Baggage i.e it was a whopping 60 Kgs {(23 x 2 +7) +7}!

So if u don't mind the long direct journey --Go for it!

Best Wishes,

Bestpal

Thanks Captain.But this is what the BA hand luggage guideline say.Do you think I should call BA office to confirm this?

You are allowed one piece of hand baggage plus a laptop or handbag.
A 23kg (51lbs) maximum bag weight applies and you must be able to lift the bag unaided into the overhead lockers in the aircraft cabin.
Please see below for sizes.

I believe even in BA it is 23kgs *2 for luggage and 7 kgs for hand carry

It's 23x1 check-in for BA & KLM,
unless they've a/ny "promotions" running - which I haven't seen in 14-yrs that I've been flying them.

Turkish Airlines is much cheaper and classy than Emirates, Etihad and other airlines.
Emirates, Qatar Airways, Etihad Airlines are just sucking the blood off their passengers; they got their own oil yet they are charging way more than Turkish Airlines who dont have their own oil.

Yes Captian is right with respect to the Check in Baggage.This how it says in the ticket.Its not clear about the weight of the Hand Baggage.But when you click the link for Hand Baggage information it says 23 kgs.I just wanted to conform that.

Checked baggage Adults and children: 1 bag at 23kg (51lbs)

About BA it is absolutely correct that they give this weird combination i.e. 23 Check in Baggage and 23 kgs (again) as Hand Baggage.

By the time you are through the Terminal hopping over at LHR airport, with the 23 kg bag to tow and the time constraints and (remember it is always via London) and the security barriers botheration (at least 10-12 times when you are required to remove your shoes, belts , all metallic items etc.Top it all with the forthcoming Olympic grill and security fears! Two things are for sure 1) You will end up having bulging biceps and 2) You will be dead tired and exhausted to have a sound sleep in the constricted space of a seat, until YYZ! LOL!

How do I know? My son endured all this with during his Christmas Dec-Dubai-return flights-- Stuttgart-LHR-Dubai-STG.

Still, Bon Voyage, 8)
