What describes overweight baggage?

What describes overweight baggage?

• A. Baggage that is larger than the airline’s size limit.
• B. Baggage that exceeds the airline’s allowed weight limit for a bag, often incurring fees.
• C. Baggage that is not allowed on board due to contents.
• D. Baggage that is within weight limits.

Answer: (B)

Overweight baggage describes luggage that weighs more than the airline’s allowed weight per bag. When a bag exceeds that weight, you’ll typically face an overweight fee or be asked to redistribute items into additional bags or remove items to stay under the limit. This emphasizes weight limits, not just overall size or whether the contents are allowed, and it’s distinct from bags that are simply within the weight limit or from bags that fail due to size or prohibited contents.
