Hand Luggage Help !

115cm is approved for both INT and DOM (on QF at least), it is just on INT you can only have 1x 115 or 1x 105, where as DOM you can have either 1x 115 or 2x 105's.

Has anyone here ever been denied 2 rollaboards on QANTAS, because they were both over 105 cm?

Indeed, but if you have a backpack and a 115cm rollaboard? I suspect NB's might be a little misled? 2 x 115 in J International.

I came very close to having my 110cm rollaboard and backpack denied last weekend. I was asked, at the gate, to check the rollaboard. The FA relented in the end because I think she felt sorry for me. (I had just flown in from Buenos Aires.) They seem to be clamping down. (Maybe as a result in the checked luggage allowance.)

My reading is that if you have anything larger than 105cm, then you are relinquishing your rights to a second bag of any size (save for jacket, hand bag, etc).

So:
2x backpacks = fine
1x 105 and backpack = fine
1x 106+ and backpack = fail.

Yes my reading too. Which is why it is confusing (rather than misleading) when bags are advertised as approved. (Approved as long as you follow the carry on baggage rules is what they are.)

It becomes an issue when you can't get a direct international flight too. (My problem last week.)

does this apply just to QF or will Emirates be okay with that, too (in J)?

Looks like Emirates are a similar:

Cabin Baggage Rules | Baggage | Essential Information | Emirates Online Booking and Planning | Emirates Australia

Am I reading right that it is 1x 80 (backpack) plus 1x 113 (roll aboard)?

QF J international is two 115cm bags though. 7KG each (That's why it is frustrating not being able to get direct international flights!!)

yeah I looked at Emirates baggage page. Looks like they are a lot stricter than QF.

I don't see your sizes quoted at all - more like 1 x 45 and 1 x 55

A bit tightarsed given that their 380 J cabin is huge, there's heaps of carry on baggage space and the flight AKL - SYD is usually pretty empty!

Any experiences here that suggests that you can take 1x 80 (backpack) plus 1x 113 (roll aboard) on Emirates?

In J Emirates allow one 55 x 38 x 20 cm (113) and one 45 x 35 x 20 cm (100) according to their website.

Tumi have a really nice new bag out made of bulletproof material!!! A bit expensive though.... but I would call it a kick cough option!

 

[simongr]

Do you mean Kick cough Kick-cough (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ?

Do you have a product name I can link to given you only have 3 posts so can't link.
