REMARKS/SUGGESTIONS
Luggage rules: Luggage rules and limits are set by governmental and airline policy. Enforcement of the
rules may include spot checks or may be inconsistent. However one thing is the same across the board:
If you are found to have oversized or overweight luggage, you will be subject to additional fees, to be
assessed by—and paid to—the airline in question.
Carry-on size: We recommend that you keep your carry-on within the size limits outlined above.
Depending on which plane is being used the day you fly out of Bhutan, there may or may not be room
in the overhead compartments for American-sized carry-ons. You are allowed to bring a personal item,
such as a lady’s purse, an overcoat, an umbrella, or a walking stick in addition to your carry-on.
Don’t Forget:
• These luggage limits may change. If the airline(s) notify us of any changes, we will
include an update in your Final Documents booklet.

numbers for the most common airlines on our website in the FAQ section.
• Baggage fees are not included in your trip price; they are payable directly to the airlines.
