The weight limit for hand luggage is actually only seven kilos.

During a recent flight out of Washington Dulles the agent at the check in counter insisted on weighing the backpack I was going to carry aboard the flight. I knew from reports here that QR was strict about this at IAD and packed accordingly.

Leaving Bangkok the agents didn't seem to care.
