Checked in baggage includes all those items which are weighted and carried in the aircraft and are not accessible to passengers during flight. It must consist of suitcases or containers that are sufficiently rigid and resistant to the stress caused by normal handling so as to ensure safe transport without special requirements.

This policy relates only to single items of baggage and does not affect your overall baggage allowance reflected on your ticket, which remains unchanged.
