every man and his dog wants this now and I would imagine Garuda are getting tired of the requests as it is getting out of hand. Once it was 10kgs and now, if allowed it is only 5kgs. Years ago international economy was 30kgs (my then overseas suitcase was larger) and domestic economy was 20kgs. Obviously the airlines needed the extra weight so the allowance was cut back. Regarding luggage left behind on flights back to Perth, this sometimes happens in winter as Garuda need to carry extra fuel in case they cannot land in Perth due to bad weather. I still can't understand though why so many people expect to get their extra luggage carried for nothing. We can discuss this till we are blue in the face yet people will still think that Garuda owes them. Enough said.
