Pay Rs 900 for extra cabin baggage on Jet Airways

July 14, 2016

Mangaluru, Jul 14: In a bid to discourage passengers from carrying extra hand bags, Jet Airways has decided to charge Rs 900 apiece in case of excess cabin baggage.

jet As per new rules consumers can take one hand bag, weighing seven (economy class) or 10 kg (business class), a laptop bag. Women can carry a purse as well without any charge. Anything beyond this will be charged at Rs 900.

A Jet spokesman said that some guests carry hand baggage over and above limit, resulting in lack of storage in the overhead compartments in the aircraft. This leads to boarding delays, causes inconvenience to other guests and affects the airline's on-time performance.

Jet Airways will therefore ensure adherence to the carriage of cabin baggage policy for the convenience of all guests, he added.

The airline also reiterated that the move was not aimed for revenue generation.

Meanwhile, duty-free bags will be exempted from the tag of additional cabin baggage charges, the airline informed travel agents.

Baggage claim

Free check-in baggage limit (economy class): 15 kg. It was revised from 20 kg some time ago.

Free cabin baggage (economy class): 7 kg
