Watch out for extra holiday weight!

According to a note on TravelPress.com, November 1 marks the date of Air Jamaica’s new luggage restrictions for the holiday travel season. The new measures mean that passengers are limited to two bags weighing no more than 50 pounds each. Bags that weigh over 50 pounds (but less that 70) will be subject to a USD$50 fee.

In additional, traveller should watch out for a ban on excess baggage during certain periods, such as the month of December for some routes or Dec. 16-26 for others.

The article advises that anyone who needs to travel with excess baggage need to make arrangements with Air Jamaica Cargo well ahead of time. For full details, see the article here. http://travelpress.com/NEWS/index.php?sid=3018.
