]]> New Luggage Rules in Flight: If you are planning to travel by air, make sure to know the new hand baggage rules of the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) before you head to the airport.

If you are not aware of these rules, you may face unnecessary hassles and even have to empty your pockets at the airport.

Due to the increasing number of passengers at security checkpoints before boarding the aircraft, the BCAS and the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), responsible for airport security, have tightened the rules related to the new hand baggage policy. This strict action by the BCAS and CISF has prompted the airlines to do the same.

One hand bag and a limit of up to 7 kg

Under the new rules of BCAS, passengers will now be allowed to carry only one hand bag inside the aircraft. Whether it is a domestic flight or an international one, passengers will be allowed to carry only one hand or cabin bag. Apart from this, it will be mandatory to check-in any luggage.

According to Air India, Economy or Premium Economy class passengers are allowed to carry a maximum of 7 kg of hand luggage. While for First or Business class passengers, the limit is around 10 kg. The size of the luggage should not exceed 55 cm (height), 40 cm (length) and 20 cm (width).

Discount on tickets booked before May 2, 2024

Airlines have clarified that the total dimensions of hand baggage should not exceed 115 cm. If the weight or size of the baggage exceeds the specified limit, passengers may have to pay additional charges. However, passengers who have booked tickets before May 2, 2024, will be given a special discount.

  • Up to 8 kg for Economy Class
  • Up to 10 kg for Premium Economy Class
  • Up to 12 kg for first or business class

This discount will only apply to tickets booked before May 2, 2024. If any changes are made to the ticket after May 2, 2024, the passenger will have to comply with the new baggage rules.
