darchibald Posted November 7, 2004 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2004 I just called the airlines and was told that the luggage couldn't be no more than 45 linear inches. Hmmmm..... Length X Width X Height....... Seems to me that the answer would be more than 45 inches if you used average numbers. My luggage is at my girlfriends house. The one bag (on wheels) is about 36 inches. Hmmmmm...... HHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!! :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptData Posted November 7, 2004 #3 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Agree with above. Most airlines is 62 inches with 41 for carry on. Receck the airline. Also 50lbs for weight. Unless you are flying overseas somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailBadtheSinner Posted November 8, 2004 #4 Share Posted November 8, 2004 the correct formula is Length + Width + Height. NOT Length X Width X Height. SBtS Here's to swimmin' with bowlegged women -- Cpt Quint of The Orca, Amity, USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glgolfer Posted November 9, 2004 #5 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Talk to someone else, the above posters are correct. Sounds like they gave you the carryon number. The checked is generally 60+ inches. The 50 lbs is also correct for intra US flights. Since most of us can't get direct overseas flights, we just use 50 as the number.
