officially its ONE bag that is allowed as Cabin Baggage or Carry On Baggage, which must not exceed 7kg.
in addition to that, I have spoken to emirates official in emirates office at Karachi, they have confirmed me that I can separately carry my laptop in another small or laptop bag, which can be a cross type or carry on or backpack, must not exceed 2.5kg (cos normally laptops weight are around under 2.5 to 3 kg including charger).
the point in saying this is.......u can easily carry 7kg of goods in ur hand trolley or hand carry.......and can carry ur laptop separately in another laptop bag. but make sure that in that laptop bag there should be only laptop and its accessories. its not like u stuff it with ur regular things and make it heavy beyond 3kg. in that way they can deny it. so by keeping ur laptop in separate bag u can save space and capacity of ur hand carry and can put some stuff in it instead of laptop.
I know its not a big deal......laptop is hardly 2.5 kg........by saving that space we cannot win any war......but yes when immigrating 1st time, under so much pressure and restricted and limited allowance of weight.......even 2 kg will matter. u can carry some of ur valuables in those 2 kgs.
now imagine if 6 people are travelling.......6*2 = 12kg!.......combines they saved 12 kg and they can put in goods of that weight into their hand carries.
good luck.
if still in confusion, call emirates office and ask them if u can separately carry ur laptop or not.
