Qatar Airways — Student Extra Baggage Allowance 10 kg

Address: Qatar

[protected] CCU to San Diego (Via San Francisco)

Qatar claims in Website that *Excess baggage allowance is applicable only on flights marketed and operated by Qatar Airways.

I believe Qatar has a Code-Share with Alaska & they are marketing Alaska Seats .

Then why my 19yr Old Son, an aspiring Undrad Student was denied this priviledge at Kolkata Airport & asked to pay INR 19000/- . He suffered huge frustration & issues & ultimately left all his study books etc to manage the baggage. He has vowed not to fly Qatar ever again due to lack of transparency in information.

Also his luggage was not booked through to San Diego & have to re-Claim & re-chek in as SFO. Such harrasment.

I think QATAR should refund him ticket price & make good this harrasment.

We will make sure to put this in all forums so that future students dont face issues when they book tickets with Code-Share filghts.
