Overweight or unaccompanied baggage

We'll normally allow overweight baggage on the plane, but we'll charge the excess weight at a set rate. Any one item of luggage must not exceed 32kgs (70lbs). If it does, it must be sent as cargo.

For more details, contact our Cargo department at London Heathrow on + 44 (0)20 8751 5000.
