Baggage desk / evidence before assumptions
One bag. Seven different questions.
Item, entitlement, pieces, weight, dimensions, journey, and consequence can all change independently. Start with the field your itinerary has not proved.
Four evidence paths
Choose the question, then use the smallest record.
Each path keeps current source context beside a local worksheet. The result is a clearer question or arithmetic comparison, not an airline decision.
Decode what is included.
Separate the personal item, cabin bag, and checked bag. Then record pieces, weight, dimensions, journey coverage, traveler context, and the consequence of exceeding a limit.
Keep personal item and carry-on separate.
Record each airline label, fare entitlement, dimensions, weight, placement, and exception without treating familiar names as a universal category.
Measure the outside that will travel.
Use the packed exterior envelope, including wheels, resting handles, pockets, and bulges. Compare every axis only with the current rule you entered.
Follow the checked-bag handoff.
Trace the bag tag, transfer point, border collection, recheck task, terminal movement, and unresolved instruction inside the connection clock.
The complete record
Keep seven fields on seven lines.
A confident answer in one row does not fill the others. Use the relevant guide when a line is missing or the itinerary changes.
- 01ItemWhich named bag category?
- 02EntitlementIncluded for which traveler and fare?
- 03PiecesHow many in this category?
- 04WeightPer piece or another basis?
- 05DimensionsWhich axes, unit, and measurement method?
- 06JourneyWhich direction, segment, and operator?
- 07ConsequenceWhat happens beyond the condition?
Before the airport
Recheck after the bag or itinerary changes.
Repacking can change the exterior envelope and weight. A ticket reissue, operating-carrier change, reroute, upgrade, or new airport instruction can change which evidence deserves review.
Do not enter names, booking references, ticket numbers, identity documents, payment details, exact addresses, or other sensitive travel information into a worksheet.
These pages do not maintain live airline allowances, prohibited-item rules, airport instructions, capacity, or acceptance outcomes.
Evidence discipline
One answer cannot fill every field.
IATA says allowances and conditions remain airline-specific. The UK CAA also describes variation by destination, airline, and travel class. The seven-field record is Iliamna's inspection framework, not a rule or acceptance result.
Recheck the current airline, fare, journey, airport, and relevant authority after any booking or packing change.
