indiesmom Posted January 28, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2013 We normally fly United. On anything over 50 lbs an excess weight fee is charged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 28, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2013 US airlines haven't, in my experience, been enforcing a weight limit, like European airlines do. I know United hasn't been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennyAgain Posted January 28, 2013 #4 Share Posted January 28, 2013 There is no carry on weight limit per se on United, but they absolutely will not help you lift a carry on bag into the overhead bin. If a bag appears to be too big/too heavy you may be forced to gate check it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleleaves Posted January 28, 2013 #5 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I've never heard of a weight limit for CARRY ON luggage, only dimensions. I guess it can be as heavy as you can manage on your own, since you'll need to get it to the gate and into the overhead bin! In the past year I've flown domestically and int'l (not UA ) and have never had my carryon luggage weighed. You need to call UA for a definitive answer ... doesn't really matter what we think or what we've experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
