What are the rules for calculating standard baggage weights and who is responsible for them? If a foreign carrier flies out of the UK does it follow UK laws, its own nation's laws or the most restricting of the two?
What I would like to know is whether it's possible for an airline to realise that actual baggage weight is sometimes too heavy to be in limits for their aircraft and so choose a slightly lower standard weight to solve the problem.
Many thanks for your help on this interesting subject
