These allowances apply for all passengers entering the UK only:

·         one standard-sized bag - maximum size of the bag, 56x45x25cm (22x18x10in)

·         plus one laptop or briefcase

NB. You must be able to lift your bag unaided into the aircraft overhead locker.
Cabin crew will assist customers with additional needs.

Allowance for franchise airlines

Franchise airlines operate certain routes on behalf of British Airways, and baggage allowances vary when you travel with these other airlines.

On some routes these airlines operate small aircraft types which have limited cabin storage space, so you cannot always expect the same allowances as on larger aircraft.

Due to airport security restrictions currently in place in the UK, only ONE piece of Hand Baggage will be permitted when departing from or transferring through the UK.

Connecting flights

·         You will receive the most generous allowance on connecting journeys with British Airways, where you have purchased one ticket your whole journey (a through ticket).

·         Where separate tickets have been purchased for a connection, the individual allowances will apply.

·         When checking in for a journey that involves BA and another carrier, the baggage policy of the first international carrier will apply. If BA is the first carrier, and the subsequent carrier's allowance is more generous, then the most generous allowance will apply.
