Route tips
On Saudi Arabia–India flights the most common surprise is the piece-vs-weight difference: some airlines on this corridor count bags in pieces with a per-bag limit, others give one total weight. A single 30 kg suitcase can be fine on one airline and chargeable on another. Check your exact fare in the baggage checker, and if you are close to the limit, pre-book extra baggage online — on almost every airline here it is cheaper than paying at the airport.
