i have a similar question:
i have my flight PIT-LHR-HKG-LHR-PIT. the flight between PIT and LHR is on UA, flight between LHR and HKG is on aeroflot, and they are on different tickets (in order to get low fare). problem is that between LHR and HKG i have only 20kg max.
is there a way to increase the luggage allowance? thanks.</font>
Perhaps if you show them that you are on an itinerary whose max. luggage allowance is X, that will get you by. The reason I say that is I have seen people pull out their "international" tickets in many countries to have the luggage allowance waived. Is there something in international conventions that dictate such?
