Typically, airlines charge 1% of the ticket price per extra kilogram. It&#8217;s advisable to arrive early at the airport to handle any excess baggage issues or adhere to the baggage limits to avoid delays. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Qatar Airways charges an average of 2.2 pounds per extra kilogram.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turkish Airlines charges 8 lira for domestic flights, 11 lira for flights to Iran, and 17 lira for other international flights per extra kilogram.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignfull is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center booking-box has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-4830c603579ef3758479a34c52b2d4d8 is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#1e0e7c;flex-basis:100%\" id=\"booking\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:900\">Book Iran Flights<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Buy Iran flight tickets at the lowest price<br>Explore Iran&#8217;s culture and history with affordable and reliable flight tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-ddb39544 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/flight\" style=\"background-color:#f94931\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>You can often pay these fees online before arriving at the airport. Remember that during stopovers, your total baggage must comply with the airline&#8217;s limits to avoid penalties. For instance, Lufthansa allows up to 99 kg per passenger, while most Iranian airlines cap it at 75 kg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on airline baggage policies and to book your next flight, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/\"><strong>OrientTrips<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-left kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;59971&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;8&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;5\\\/5 - (8 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Baggage Weight Limits for Airlines in Iran&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;142.5&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 142.5px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\">\n            5\/5 - (8 votes)    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exploring Baggage Weight Limits and rules while traveling with Iranian airlines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":82604,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[263,262,122],"class_list":["post-59971","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tips","tag-airline","tag-baggage","tag-tips"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59971","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59971"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59971\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/82604"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59971"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59971"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orienttrips.com\/mag\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59971"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
