Baggage

This section provides you with detailed information related to our Baggage Allowances, Country Specific Restrictions, Baggage transfers etc.

The below information also includes data about all our security formalities and regulations which every guest would require before his travel.

For domestic travel, Jet Airways' maximum liability for lost or damaged baggage and lost contents as a result of damage is Rs450.00 per kilogram.
For international travels, including the domestic portions, subject to the Warsaw Convention, the liability limit for delay, damage or loss is approximately U.S. $9.07 per pound (U.S. $20.00 per kg) for checked baggage. Where the Montreal Convention applies, the liability of the Carrier for the delay, damage or loss to checked baggage is limited to 1,000 Special Drawing Rights per passenger.
Claims for pilferage, if any, will be settled by establishing actual weight loss or on the basis of estimated weight loss.
Jet Airways assumes no liability for (but not limited to) fragile or perishable items, money, keys, jewellery, electronic and photographic equipment, precious metals, silverware, negotiable papers, securities, or other valuables, business documents, medicines, medical documents, passports and other identification document, or samples, which are included in the passenger's checked baggage with or without the knowledge of the Carrier. These articles are best hand carried.
Baggage is designed to protect the contents. In the course of normal handling your luggage may show evidence of wear and tear. In addition, locks may be damaged by the airport conveyor belt systems. Jet Airways does not compensate for zippers, scruffs, scratches, nicks, dents, missing straps, feet, clips and wheels, exterior tube handles or similar damage attributable to normal wear and tear.
Guests departing from the U.S. should note that TSA (Transport Security Administration) screens every passenger's baggage before it is placed on an airplane. There are times when TSA has to physically inspect a piece of luggage. TSA has worked with several companies to develop locks that can be opened by security officers using universal "master" keys so that the locks may not have to be cut. Passengers departing from the U.S. are advised to use TSA approved locks. Details of such locks are available from the website: http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/assistant/locks.shtm. These locks are available at airports and travel stores in the U.S. The packaging on the locks indicates whether they can be opened by TSA.
At most airports in India and abroad, security regulations prohibit the hand carriage of liquids and gels over and above 100ml. Therefore Duty Free liquor and cosmetics of over 100ml in volume, purchased at International Airports will not be allowed as hand baggage on flights within India. In such cases, passengers are required to check-in such items and Jet Airways assumes no responsibility for their damage.
