How not to overpay for luggage

As much as it may sound ironic, but the best way - it does not take too many things. But as you know, it does not always work. Extra kilos in baggage - sometimes quite significant losses for your budget. Can this be avoided?

There are several actions that will help save your budget:

1. When buying tickets, read the established rules for free baggage transportation and try to take this into account when packing your suitcase.

2. It is best to weigh your luggage at home. This can be done even on conventional floor scales and the difference between your total weight with luggage and the weight without luggage, respectively, is calculated. This will avoid the hassle of the airport.

3. If, nevertheless, you find that the weight is not correct, take out things that you can put on yourself. Of course, not much, but your suitcase will become lighter. Pockets can also help out; it's enough just to put small but heavy objects in them. Do not forget that many items that are quite heavy, such as telephones, cameras and related accessories, can be taken in hand luggage. It should be noted that small but heavy items can be placed in a laptop bag.

4. First, check the weight of your luggage, then pack it in a plastic bag. This is necessary in order to save time on repackaging.

5. Sometimes it is much cheaper to buy the necessary shampoos, toothpastes, gels, and sunblock immediately on the spot than to pay extra for them in the form of excess weight in your luggage.

6. To save on luggage, you can use a good service - buy food, drinks, and souvenirs at DutyFree.

7. Try to limit yourself to a travel bag or suitcase, which in terms of size and weight will fit the definition of "hand luggage". This will allow you to avoid many procedures, for example, baggage check-in or waiting for it. In this case, your luggage will definitely not be lost.
