You’re right, they updated their rules this summer to only allow one personal item, 7 kg, in addition to a laptop bag. I was worried about the same when I just travelled to Mumbai. They will for sure weigh your 7kg bag to check if it is in fact 7. As for a backpack or laptop bag, they will ask what’s in their—you know what to say. However, it’s not weighed
They did not let me get my laptop bag and carryon. Had space so shuffled things around and put the bag pack in the carryon. A small personal item was ok though along with the carryon. And it was not only in India, even in US I was told the same thing and they asked me to check in my carry on.
All Middle East carriers have transitioned to a single item and 7kg max.Also super stringent about it.
Do they measure while boarding as well or only when we check in large bags.
They usually don’t. In US I had said no to check in my carryon because it had valuables. The ticketing agent let me go but told me to I could be asked to check in/pay if the boarding agent caught me at the gate but thankfully no one did.
I know what you are trying to do just don’t get caught.
Measure once when you check in, don’t weight again while boarding… whatcha thinking 🤔
Wait they don’t allow carry on and laptop bag? Why? Sounds like a terribly inconvenient policy. And why do people travel on these airlines? I’ve successfully avoided them thus far and will keep doing so. This is just one more reason
I’ve been flying back and forth since I was an associate. And I don’t come from money. So try again.
