thanks for the help. 🙂

A lot of airlines allow 20kg for economy passengers.

That is what JAT initially told me in Belgrade when i rang to-confirm my flight back to MEL. After i told them i was continuing to MEL with EK406 they said 28kgs.

Also any bag over 20kgs should be tagged with a heavy sticker.

is this also due to the health and safety? The only sticker on my bag from JAT was the white sticker that says DXB MEL etc. They dont even supply baggage tags! 🙁

It sat there for a week or two before we got it onto a flight without anybody asking about the wait.

wow 😮 Thats odd.
