Luggage Scales: Say Goodbye to Excess Baggage Fees

It often happens that luggage exceeds the airline's weight limits at the airport. Sometimes, this isn't a big deal—airlines may be lenient or the excess weight is small enough to be overlooked. In other cases, however, excess baggage fees apply. These can quickly add up to €50 or more. You should definitely avoid them. That’s exactly what luggage scales are for: they allow you to measure your luggage weight precisely. Read on to find out more about the benefits of travel scales.

Buy Your Luggage Scale at bags.co.uk

If you're a frequent traveler, a luggage scale is essential—otherwise, you're bound to run into problems with airlines sooner or later. At bags.co.uk, we offer a wide selection of products that are durable, easy to use, and provide precise measurements. Even the designs vary a little. But don’t expect too much in terms of looks—these are functional tools. Still interested? Then order your luggage scale today and never worry about excess baggage fees again.

Why Bathroom Scales Are Not a True Alternative

Why not just use a bathroom scale to weigh your suitcase? That’s a fair question—and technically it works. But it should only be used as a last resort, not your go-to method. Luggage scales are designed to be more accurate and convenient. Balancing a suitcase or similar item on a bathroom scale can be awkward and imprecise. Travel scales, on the other hand, are compact and portable—perfect for weighing your luggage on your return journey as well.

Tip: Not all luggage scales are ergonomically designed. Some offer highly precise readings but are uncomfortable to hold, potentially causing hand fatigue or even minor injury. Ease of handling should always be one of your selection criteria.

Frequently Asked Questions About Luggage Scales

Why should I use a luggage scale?

As mentioned above, a luggage scale is especially useful when you frequently travel by air and check in your baggage. Checked luggage is subject to strict weight limits, and even small overruns can lead to excess baggage fees. A luggage scale helps you avoid this and ensures better weight distribution when packing.

What types of luggage scales are there?

There are significant differences between luggage scales, and it’s important to know them to make an informed decision. The most relevant characteristics include:

  • Width
  • Length
  • Design
  • Brand
  • Material
  • Closure mechanism

While the brand isn’t the most crucial factor, luggage scales from well-known brands like Samsonite or Travelite are usually better than unknown no-name products. More important features include size, accuracy, and closure mechanism. Generally, a digital scale is more reliable and easier to read than an analog one.

How to choose the right luggage scale?

All of the characteristics mentioned above are important selection criteria for a luggage scale. Even relatively minor aspects like the material should not be overlooked. Admittedly, material matters less than with actual luggage, but materials like nylon, polyester, or polypropylene are best suited for flexibility and durability—provided the build quality is high. In addition to good materials, you’ll want the right size and a secure mechanism. Need a scale to keep your baggage in check? Don’t wait—on bags.co.uk you'll find a wide selection of luggage scales that tick all the boxes.
