I am boarding a flight on 6th dec via indigo . The problem is , as i am going for next 1 yr allmost i am taking many wearable items with me which is leading to two stolley bags ( 28 inches and 26 inches ) , i am highly suspecting that tht total weight will be above 20 kgs . how much extra i need to shell out ? My first time so being extra cautious.. :S
 
And i thought its 100/ kg , :( Indigo's website says that . I was asking if someone can share some experiences in this matter.. Are they very strict in this matter and do they check baggage dimensions also ? one of mine is exceeding by few cms.
 
Its 100 bucks per Kg as per Norms if it exceeds 20kg limit... you can carry 10kilos baggage as part of cabin luggage.
 
domestic travel? can't you purchase the clothes/apparel from the place where u will be itself? coz that might be a bit cheaper and you'll have to carry less luggage while travelling.. which is a PITA..
 
If you are a frequent traveler or so many claim then you can bully them into accepting the excess weight.

But normally the rates are exorbitant and I suggest you reduce the baggage weight accordingly.
 
domestic

not a frequent traveller , going for 1 yr allmost , have to take apparels in that way . :( . The place i am going is totally foreign to me and cant risk to take few clothes.

Anybody has previous experience in this matter ?
 
The size really won't matter unless drastically bigger than allowed.

Weight yea... You'll probably have to shell out extra cash.
 
where are you going? Seriously its too expensive. Why would you want to pay a few hundred bucks just for carrying your stuff.

I have carried more than stipulated weight many a times but have always been with family and the line "other airlines never make us go through this ordeal just for 1 or 2 kilos extra always works" :)
 
Take enough with you for a week, send the rest via bluedart for 1-2k

Bluedart surface charges something like 1.2k for 25kg (size of package is also considered)

There is also the option of kingfisher cargo, relatively cheaper than excess baggage
 
I think you would have to pay mre than 100bucks. the amount is based on the sector/zone in which u are traveling.

On another note.... I am paying 30USD per KG in Singapore:@
 
You are allowed to carry Luggage 20 KG + maximum weight not exceeding 8.0 KG (Including bag) and not exceeding length 55cm + width 35cm + height 25cm = total 115 cm in size.

So, You do not need to worry about your baggage if it s not exceeding 28 KG.
 
Take whatever is necessary for a month going around 8kg with all valuables in the cabin luggage. The rest of the clothes you can send it via any surface couriers (DTDC,Gati, DHL). You will save a hell lot of money and will enjoy traveling as well :)

After a month when you receive your package, spend the rest of the year relishing on Ur favorite jeans/jackets/shirts etc etc... :)

You are a reech b33ch so u can cough up so much. Ona side note i have carried 33kgs from NZ to India when my allowed luggage was 20 kgs and did not pay not even a single dollar :P

OP use some courier/ cargo service and take ur stuff , its a blunder if u pay 100INR/kg to the airlines.
