**Using Your Gulf Air Ticket to Fly on Other Airlines**

Flights that are operated by another airline but have a Gulf Air flight number: Passengers who purchase tickets for travel on a codeshare aircraft are subject to the checked baggage policy of that airline.

For all flights until you arrive at your destination, the baggage policy of the airline running the first segment of your itinerary applies if your ticket includes a connection to or from a codeshare flight not run by Gulf Air.

**Example 1:** Flying from Dubai to Amman via Bahrain, but with a flight operated by Royal Jordanian Airlines, and from Bahrain to Amman with a Gulf Air flight number.
Your flight from Dubai to Amman would be subject to Gulf Air’s luggage policies.

**Example 2:** Flying from Amman to Dubai through Bahrain with a Gulf Air flight number, but with Royal Jordanian Airlines operating the trip from Bahrain to Dubai with a Gulf Air flight number.
Your flight from Amman to Dubai would be subject to Royal Jordanian’s luggage policies.

There is a unique piece idea that applies to Gulf Air flights that are operated by American Airlines to and from the USA or Canada.

**Tickets issued by Gulf Air for flights on other airlines to and from the USA and Canada**

Your free baggage allowance is determined by a combination of the number of pieces you can bring and the maximum weight per piece if you purchase a Gulf Air ticket to or from the USA or Canada that requires a connection with a flight run by another airline (for American Airlines see policy above). Each airline has a different policy on this, so check their website to make sure you are up to date on both your baggage allotment and any potential fees before you leave for your trip.

* Tickets issued by Gulf Air for travel on other airlines, barring those serving the USA and Canada
* The **[Gulf Air baggage allowance](https://medium.com/@s94227421/gulf-air-baggage-allowance-b1fefed79c21)** of the operating airline is applicable to their aircraft regardless of where you started your journey if you book a Gulf Air ticket that involves a connection with a flight operated by an airline that is not a Gulf Air codeshare partner.
* Please check the airline’s website for their luggage policy before making travel arrangements.
* Separate tickets or no direct check-in option to a subsequent location
* Please be aware that you will be subject to the applicable baggage allowance of the airline operating each flight if you hold separate tickets for your journey or if your baggage cannot be checked through to your final destination (i.e., if you must claim your baggage due to immigration clearance or airport restrictions requiring you to recheck your baggage with your next airline).
* Oversize and Overweight Baggage Charges by Gulf Air for 2023
* If your luggage still exceeds the free baggage limits, our customer service staff will assess a competitive fee at the airport.
* Gulf Air now offers new extra baggage charges per kilogram, based on the “zone” of your origin and destination across the whole Gulf Air network, if you are traveling the entirety of your trip on Gulf Air operated aircraft. You can figure it out on your own and budget for your trip.
* A different baggage policy is imposed if you are flying on a Gulf Air ticket with another airline. The special and affordable rates shown below do not apply to codeshare flights run by partner airlines, interline itineraries when another airline and Gulf Air travel together, or flights to and from the United States and Canada.
* For instance, if you were to fly from London to Delhi with 7 kg of excess baggage, the total excess baggage price would be 203 USD (20+9), or 29 USD per kg.
* Taking a Gulf Air flight from London to Hanoi via Bahrain and a Thai Airways flight from Bangkok to Hanoi:
* The total extra baggage price for 10Kg would be (20+20) = 40 USD per kilo, multiplied by 10 to equal 400 USD.

Your free baggage allowance from Gulf Air includes the pleasure of transporting your musical instruments and athletic equipment. If your free baggage allowance is exceeded, standard extra baggage fees will be assessed. Each item cannot be larger than the following maximums: 190 cm (79 in) x 75 cm (29.5 in) x 65 cm (25.5 in) and a single piece weight of 32 kg.
