Lufthansa Checked Baggage Allowance On intercontinental flights the checked baggage rules are as follows: Economy: 1 x 23 kg/ 50 lbs; Premium Economy: 2 x 23 kg/ 50 lbs; Business: 2 x 32 kg/ 70 lbs; First Class: 3 x 32 kg/ 70 lbs. Bags may measure up to 158 cm/ 62 inches in total (width + length +depth).

For Lufthansa international intercontinental flights, the standard baggage allowance for Economy Class (Basic and Flex) is typically one checked bag weighing up to 23 kg (50 lbs) with maximum dimensions of 158 cm (62 inches) total linear size. If you book "Economy Light," which is their most restrictive fare, no checked baggage is included, and you must pay an extra fee to add a bag. In addition to checked luggage, all Economy passengers are permitted one piece of carry-on baggage (max 8 kg) and one small personal item like a laptop bag or handbag. Frequent flyers with Star Alliance Gold status or Lufthansa's own Miles & More status may be entitled to an additional free checked bag. It is crucial to adhere to the 32 kg hard limit; Lufthansa will not accept any single piece of luggage weighing more than 32 kg as checked baggage for safety reasons, requiring it to be shipped via air cargo instead.
