    • Insight VacationsOperatorWritten June 2022

      You are allowed to bring one suitcase per person with the dimensions of 30.5×22×12.5 and weight not exceeding 66 lbs (30kg) due to the limited space on the coach. You can also bring one piece of hand luggage, provided it is small enough to take on the coach and does not have telescope handles. Carry-on bags should not exceed the dimensions of 12×11×6. For safety reasons, wheeled carry-on bags are not suitable as hand luggage on motorcoaches.
