So like the title says?? I hope there are some? Please help? I am landing in PPT at 00:05 and leave at 10ish in the morning for Bora Bora before coiming back and spending 4 nights in PPT.

An additional free baggage allowance of 5 kg (11 pounds) is granted to scuba divers upon presentation of their diver’s card at the check-in counter.
You should be OK.
