Why has my luggage been rejected for transfer?


Category: Luggage transfer

The most possible reason is that your luggage contains illegal items.
Although different countries set different rules about prohibited items, but most of these items are similar. In general, the following articles are rejected by most airlines around the world:

* Flammable liquids and solids: gasoline, flammable paints, lighter fluid, matches, adhesives, etc.
* Explosives: fireworks, dynamite, gunpowder (including black powder or percussion caps), hand grenades, helium, plastic explosives, realistic replicas of an explosive, flares, etc.
* Dangerous chemicals: chlorine for pools and spas, insecticides, some cleaners and solvents, tear gas, weed killers, pesticides, rodent poisons, arsenic, etc.
* Gases and pressure containers: carbon dioxide cartridges, oxygen tanks (scuba or medical), fire extinguishers, self-inflating rafts, etc.
* Corrosives: wet cell batteries, acids, lye, mercury barometers, etc.
* Radioactive materials: implanted radioactive medical devices may be accepted by some airlines.
* Magnetic materials: strong magnets like those in laboratory equipment.

Note: contact your flight company or travel agent about banned items in the luggage in order to avoid further troubles.
