Luggage Weight Estimator

No scale at home? Add how many of each item you plan to pack and pick your bag. The estimator uses typical weights for clothes, shoes and gadgets, adds the empty bag and compares the total with your airline's limit. Weights vary, so leave a little margin and weigh the bag at the airport kiosk if you can.

How it works

Each item uses a typical weight (for example T-shirt 150 g, jeans 650 g, shoes 750 g, laptop 1.5 kg)
Packed weight = empty bag + every item × how many
Margin = limit − packed weight

Wear your heaviest shoes and jacket on travel day, and keep a small foldable bag for shopping on the way home.

Three things this tool can't see

Your exact things. Weights vary a lot by fabric and size. Weigh the bag if you are close to the limit.
Size limits. Airlines also limit bag size. Measure your bag, including wheels and handles.
Battery rules. Power banks and spare batteries usually must go in hand luggage only.
