What is Cabin Luggage Allowance for Different Airlines？

Every time before traveling, in addition to do the traveling raiders, the most annoying thing is to worry about the baggage. Especially when I buy a special purchase, the luggage is overweight, and the high overweight freight is really expensive.

It is normal to buy something when traveling, who can control the heart of buying. However, if the weight and specifications of the baggage exceed the standard and the travel is delayed, it is very embarrassing. Because you need to return to the consignment office and re-deliver the consignment. Moreover, the overweight part of the charge is really expensive, which is enough for you to buy again.

Different airlines have different allowance on the weight and the quantity of consignment. Next we will introduce the luggage allowance for the five major airlines.
