sbiddle:billgates: Yes you can take up to max 25Kg. I have done it several times and never have been stopped and so have many of my friends and relatives.
Baggage is 25Kg. It stops strictly at 25Kg. All my travel tickets have always said 20Kg as well but they allow extra 5Kg for main luggage.
Hand Luggage is strictly and I mean strictly 7Kg.
You can also carry an laptop in it's case which will not count towards extra hand luggage.
Wow.. hang on there.
Air NZ domestic is 25kg and because there is nobody to actually weight it now you can get away with more.
International is a whole different story, the limit for virtually all destinations and airlines ex NZ if you're flying Economy is a single piece no more than 20kg unless you're flying to the USA where you get 23kg and typically 2 pieces.
If you've got a 20kg baggage limit and get away with more then it's nothing more that luck or fidinging a ticketing agent who's having a good day. I've done enough flying to know that this is the exception rather than the norm and particularly in tough financial times for airlines ticketing people who are even a couple of kg over is a great way to make money.
There is certainly no 25kg blanket allowance of rule that you'll get 5kg extra without any charge. If you attempt to fly with more than 20kg on a 25kg ticket be prepared for a ticket agent to tell you to attemtpt to repack stuff in your carry on bag (if this weights less than your allowance) or be prepared to pay.
