Answer 1

Yes.

2 piece hand baggage allowance for all British Airways flights

The UK Department for Transport has given approval to most UK airports to remove the one-bag restriction on hand baggage. This covers all UK airports that British Airways flies out of and as a result, you can now carry 2 pieces of hand baggage when travelling on all British Airways flights.

The following allowances apply:

one standard-sized bag - maximum size of the bag must not exceed 56x45x25cm (22x17.5x9.85in) (including wheels, pockets and handles)

In addition, one laptop sized bag, handbag or briefcase

A 23kg(51lbs) maximum bag weight applies and you must be able to lift the bag into the overhead lockers in the aircraft cabin unaided.

Answer 2

British Airways will not accept any item of baggage that weighs more than 23kg

(50lbs) or oversized items exceeding 2.5m x 1.00m x 0.80m (98in x 39in x 31in).

For exceptional items that weigh between 23kg - 45kg (50 - 99lbs) and which cannot be repacked e.g. musical instruments, electrical wheelchairs, some

sporting items, TV news cameras, commercial spares, please notify Trailfinders at the time of booking for further information.

Answer 3

most airlines dont count a laptop as handbaggage allowance so you should be fine, but check british airways website or even the airport that you are flying from they should be able to help.
