Airline free baggage allowance

Soon we will fly to Asia and I am already monitoring the tickets. The second question after the cost, I ask myself about luggage - now we have got more of it than we wanted, especially what goes into our carry-on luggage. I have a huge photo backpack, in which a camera and lenses are in, so it is not yet clear for me to declare it as «camera» or how «carry-on baggage».

In the post, I will collect a little information about the airlines with which we may fly to Thailand..

In any case, before the flight, you need to call your airline and clarify all the details. So many airlines had changes regarding free baggage allowance (they adopted new rules). And also because, on almost all airline websites there is not a word about what you can take with you to the cabin for a child if he flies without his seat and how many additional things (cameras, laptops, etc.) you can take with you in salon for an adult.

I also recommend everyone to do baggage insurance, a very useful thing, I wrote about this in detail in this post.

Economy class.
Luggage: the sum of 3 measurements up to 158 cm (in rare cases 207 cm)
Carry-on baggage: 55x40x20 or the sum of three dimensions up to 115 cm.
