Further destination flights have the advantage of main luggage included in the ticket price. Though the size and weight restrictions may differ, because they depend on the airlines’ guidelines. It is worth starting at the end and checking the limits on your last flight first. The smaller the plane, the less luggage we can take onboard. For example, the maximum weight of the entire luggage per person allowed on the Aeroplan is 15 kg, even though it is possible to take 20 kg of only main luggage on the Qatar Airways flight. Therefore, make sure you know all the restrictions, because Maldivian Airlines charge extra 2.50 to 10.00 USD (depending on destination) per kilo, if your suitcase is overweight.
