A seamless travel experience requires an understanding of the Royal Jordanian Baggage Policy which specifies particular allowances and costs for both checked and carry-on bags on both domestic and international flights.For international flights, Economy class passengers typically receive one checked bag weighing up to 23kg (50 lbs), while Business class travelers enjoy two bags of the same weight. Carry-on baggage is limited to one piece weighing up to 7kg (15 lbs) with dimensions not exceeding 55x40x20 cm, plus one personal item like a handbag or laptop bag. Exceeding these limits results in significant fees, starting at approximately $50 USD for the first excess kilogram on international flights and increasing for additional weight or oversized items. Special items such as sports equipment, musical instruments, or pets require advance booking and incur extra charges, often ranging from $75 to $150 each way, depending on the item and route. Infants traveling on laps are generally allowed one checked bag weighing up to 10kg (22 lbs) at no extra cost. To avoid hefty airport fees, travelers should pre-purchase extra baggage online, where rates are substantially lower than counter prices. Royal Jordanian also offers a "Carry-on Baggage Only" fare for budget-conscious flyers, excluding checked luggage entirely. Always check the official Royal Jordanian Baggage Policy before flying, as allowances can vary for Star Alliance partners, Royal Plus members, or during peak seasons. Note that liquids in carry-on must comply with security regulations (containers ?100ml), and sharp objects or lithium batteries have specific handling rules. By weighing bags beforehand and familiarizing yourself with these guidelines, you can prevent unexpected fees and ensure your journey starts stress-free.
