If you are travelling on a regular ticket with Qatar, the basic luggage requirement is one check-in bag that must follow a maximum dimension. The dimension is calculated as length + width + height of the bag. The total of these dimensions is 157.48 cm. If you book an economy class ticket your maximum weight is 25kg, economy convenience Qatar Airways reservations allow you to travel with 30kg, and economy comfort will hold 35kg per passenger.

On Qatar Airways flights you are allowed to travel with harmless, domesticated animals such as dogs, cats, and birds. They will be checked in as excess baggage and be charged according to excess baggage rates. Other more unusual or dangerous pets must be transported as cargo in the cargo hold. If your pet is going to be in the cabin, you are allowed a maximum of one bird or two service dogs. All other animals will be stored as cargo. This is subject to space on board, and so it is recommended to book as early as possible so the airline can make provisions for the space. There is no limit to the number of animals you are allowed to check-in as cargo, however, that is restricted by space, size and weight.
