Baggage allowance question

I am on a RTW in C through the US so the piece concept applies (2x32 kgs). Does EK not allow C pax an extra piece, like, for example Staralliance carriers? It doesn't say on the website.

Thanks

Nope, no extra piece when flying in F/J - just the 2

However Skywards Silver and Gold do get extra allowance (not sure how much)

Baggage

You will not have any problems if you are in C. Do this all the time with Emirates - they are great!!

This may not be directly relevant; take the published baggage allowances very seriously when stopping over in DXB. I have had multiple issues no matter what class I traveled - particularly with the 32 KG per bag issue - they told me that they would gladly take the extra 4 kgs in an additional bag but would not let the overweight bag through.....
