Don't forget to include the wheels, handles, and anything else that's “sticking out”. You should always measure each dimension at the widest point, not the narrowest. For example, the Samsonite Winfield 2 28-inch checked suitcase has the total overall dimensions of 31 (height) x 20 (width) x 12.75 (depth) inches.
Each passenger that pays for a checked baggage can bring a maximum of 23 kg with dimensions up to 275 cm (length + width + height). You can buy extra weight in 3kgs units, up to a maximum of 32kg per bag.
For hold luggage, most airlines set a weight limit for single items of luggage. Usually, this is 23kg. If your hold luggage is over and you haven't paid for extra, you might be charged.
Therefore, when it comes to a 28-inch suitcase, if you don't exceed the maximum weight limit for checked luggage then you should be able to check it in at most airports. However, if your bag exceeds the size or weight limits then you may be subject to additional charges from the airline.
On all flights, except to and from the United States, each passenger can purchase a checked luggage weight allowance of 20 kg, 25 kg, 30 kg, or 40 kg. It doesn't matter how many bags the total weight is split into, but no bag can be over 32 kg (70 lbs) in weight and 319 cm (126 inches) in total dimensions.
That depends if you have several kg overweight and are asking for the price per kg or if you really just only have one single kg extra. For a singe kg above the limit you most probably will not get charged, especially not on a full service airline. There is usually a tolerance in the range of 2–3kg, sometimes up to 5.
Checked bags that can weigh up to 23kg usually have dimensions of 50 x 80 x 28cm (length x width x height), known as the medium (M) size of a travel suitcase. Therefore, look for a good quality model that fits these measurements.
