If their hand luggage is deemed too large or too heavy, passengers will have to check it into the airplane's hold instead. In this case, it will count as part of their checked luggage allowance.

Infants who will be travelling on an adult's lap during the flight have a checked luggage allowance of 10 kg. If passengers exceed their weight allowance they will be charged for carriage of the extra weight. Any one item weighing over 32 kg will not be carried by the airline. Most sporting items are included in the checked luggage allowance. Golf clubs and bicycles cannot be carried as part of a passenger's checked luggage allowance and additional fees will apply for these items.
