Extra luggage charges for a flight with Qatar Airways and JetBlue between India and the US

Extra luggage charges for a flight with Qatar Airways and JetBlue between India and the US - An Airborne Plane With Wheels Down

I have flight from Ahmedabad, India to Raleigh, NC, USA. The flight detail is as follows:

  • Ahmedabad to Doha - Qatar Airways | QR 535
  • Doha to New York - Qatar Airways | QR 701
  • New York to Raleigh - JetBlue Airways | B6 1185

Will I be charged for extra luggage by both airlines, i.e. Qatar and JetBlue? What are the charges for additional weight (between 23-32 Kg) in comparison to a separate 23 Kg bag?



Best Answer

In your case, the Qatar Airways rule will apply; because they are the most significant carrier on your journey.

You will have to recheck your bags though, as this is standard practice at the port of arrival in the US.

For your flight, its $50 per bag, and the maximum one bag can weight is 32KG. You will only pay this extra if you are flying on Economy as Business and First passengers already have a 32KG limit.

Irrespective of travel class, you can only check in two bags for free.
