lufthansa baggage exceed the limitations allowance charge

Should your baggage exceed the limitations of the baggage allowance regarding the number of pieces, its size or its weight we will have to charge a fee for your excess baggage. You can calculate it yourself and plan it into your travel budget right from the start. The charges specified always refer to a single route (charges should therefore be added up for outbound and return flights).
