Question
i am travelling from stuttgart to mumbai via istanbul by turkish airline. what is the maximum baggage limit for luggage and hand bag?

Answer
Dear Jintendra,

Since you did not specify which class you're travelling, please see the information below:

Checked bag allowances
First Class     60 kg
Business Class    30 kg
Economy Class    20 kg
Infant
(Age between 0-2)10kg+1 fully collapsible baby stroller (for each piece maximum dimension is 115cm)

Carry-on allowances

Maximum dimensions for each piece
Business Class    2 pieces    8 kg (each piece)    23x40x55 cm.
Economy Class    1 piece    8 kg                    23x40x55 cm.

For these bags cabin baggage tags shall be used. Cabin baggage control is made during check in or /and boarding.

In addition to standard carry-on baggage allowance, every passenger may carry the following items free of charge in the cabin.

   * 1 overcoat or blanket
   * 1 lady’s small hand-bag
   * 1 small camera
   * 1 baby stroller
   * Baby bottle for feeding the baby in cabin etc.

Hope this helps.
Best Regards,
R. Gomes
