Fox trotter Posted June 6, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2018 According to the FAQs on the Cunard website, maximum weight per luggage item is 23kg. However having received etickets and luggage labels today, I notice it states maximum 20kg per item. Although of course there's no limit to the number of items. Has the limit changed ?

cruiseluvva Posted June 6, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 6, 2018 No, it’s 23 kgs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMac1953 Posted June 6, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 6, 2018 As long as nobody actually weighs ours. We don't weigh the cases and neither do they, so we're all happy. Stewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombatar Posted June 6, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Only weigh ours if we are flying. Joining the ship in port I figure if I can pick it up (I will be 71 in August) then I think the strong lads at Southampton can as well!! Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Our porter was a young girl last year and she picked our cases up like they were a couple of balloons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox trotter Posted June 9, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted June 9, 2018 I think I have figured this out. We are booked on Intercruises coach travel to Southampton and they have a 20kg per item limit. The coach booking is linked to the cruise booking, so the 20kg is shown on the tickets and luggage labels. The 20kg also applies to Eavesway coaches.

Sibyl2 Posted June 17, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Just looked at our etickets for our cruise in and out of Southampton. No flying. No coach. It says no bag to weigh more than 20kg! Guess the porters are getting weaker! Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox trotter Posted June 18, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I had a conversation with someone at the coach company as their website was a little confusing regarding weight and sizes of suitcases. They advised me that 23kg was the maximum their driver was allowed to lift, so they quote 20kg as a maximum as from experience they know some passengers will always try to squeeze in a bit more than the limit.

bazzaw Posted July 2, 2018 #9 Share Posted July 2, 2018 We recently used National Express coach to get us to Southampton - they quoted 20KG so that is what we packed to. It has to do with O,H & S regs. Flying to the UK we were allowed 2x23Kg and Cunard obviously doesn't weigh anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
