Size and Weight Guidelines
Most airlines typically enforce a 50-lb. limit per checked item and charge fees for checked baggage.
- For Jetstar (JQ) and Jetstar Asia (3K/VF), dimensions of main items must not exceed 56cm (width) 36cm (height) 23cm (depth) for an overnight bag, laptop bag or briefcase.
- For Jetstar Pacific (BL), dimensions of main items must not exceed 48cm (width) 34cm (height) 23cm (depth) for an overnight bag or briefcase.
- AirAsia limit is 7kg
For
carry-ons, allowable sizes (and the number of bags allowed) are not
standardized, but most airlines allow carry-on bags no larger than 22" x
14" x 9". It’s wise to check with your airline about size limits before
departure.
What size bag or pack is best for you? Here are some rough guidelines:
| Trip Length | Luggage Size | Suggested Bag Type |
| Weekend trips | 52 liter (3,200 cu. in.) | Carry-on duffel, pack or bag |
| 1- to 2-week trips | 65 liter (4,000 cu. in.) | Travel pack or wheeled luggage |
| Expeditions | Several 65-liter bags | All types |
Tip:
Don't worry about leaving extra space in your bag for souvenirs. Pack
an empty duffel bag to fill with treasures for the return trip.
