A new baggage allowance finder has been launched aimed at helping holidaymakers through a maze of airline baggage regulations which vary from company to company.
Aimed at helping the 32% of travellers who admitted to finding packing the most stressful aspect of going on holiday in a recent survey, the baggage allowance finder allows users to select their desired airport and airline before returning up-to-date details of the regulations that will be enforced on their flight.
“With an ever growing and changing set of rules and regulations, feeling like you’re packed and prepared for a holiday has become a frustrating research task,” said Nick Caunter, APH’s Managing Director, who added, “Being able to pack well in advance has been shown to help 36% of travellers, so our baggage allowance finder will help more people take advantage of this for a less stressful experience, and give them the confidence that they will avoid any excess weight charges or other shocks before they travel to the airport.”
The comprehensive results show the specific instructions for up to 12 categories, including hand luggage, check baggage, pushchairs and car seats, baby food / milk, medicine, laptops and tablets, wheelchairs and skiing equipment as well as other sports gear items and musical instruments.
