Last year Etihad Airways has revised its baggage allowance policy for international flights. According to new baggage allowance policy, weight allowance has been changed according to route, choice of fare and Guest membership status of Etihad passengers.
On most of the routes international baggage allowance has been increased from 30 KGs to 23 KGs while at some routes instead of carrying the luggage of 30 KGs, passengers can carry with them two pieces of baggage at 23 KGs each. However, Etihad Guest Members will get extra benefits in shape of carrying an extra bag or getting additional weight allowance subject to market and route.
