Editorial process

How we check baggage information

Baggage policies can change and may vary across fares, routes, cabins, traveler status, and operating carriers. Our editorial process is designed to make those differences visible instead of presenting one rule as universal.

  1. 1
    Identify the exact policy scope

    We distinguish the marketing airline, operating carrier, route, fare, cabin, and traveler status.

  2. 2
    Check available official information

    Airline baggage pages, contracts, fee tables, and relevant authority guidance are prioritized.

  3. 3
    Separate facts from practical advice

    Confirmed rules, variable details, and conservative traveler recommendations are labeled clearly.

  4. 4
    Review and update

    Guides include a review signal and are revisited when policies, fees, or dimensions change.
