If there is excess hand luggage, especially when the flight is fully booked, it may be that it has to be loaded in the aircraft's cargo hold. Before boarding, the passenger is asked to leave his hand luggage in front of the aircraft, a special baggage tag will be attached and the passenger will be given a receipt. On arrival at the destination the passenger will collect his hand luggage immediately after leaving the aircraft. [AMZ asins='B00LB7REFK,B082K8ZNQ1,B07ZWLQF9T,B00NW62PCA']
