• Multiply the length x width x height in centimetres of each piece to determine the cubic capacity. • Add all the cubic capacities together to get a total cubic capacity. • Divide the Total cubic capacity by 6000 to get volumetric weight. • Round the total volumetric weight up to the closest half kilogram. • Weigh your pieces of baggage. • Add the actual weights together to get a total actual weight. • Round the total actual weight up to the closest half kilogram. Changeable weight is the bigger of 4 or 7 above Example: Piece 1: (50cm x 25cm x 25 cm) ÷ 6000 Volumetric Weight = 5.21 kg Actual Weight = 7.83kg Piece 2: (100cm x 50cm x 27 cm) ÷ 6000 Volumetric Weight = 22.50 kg Actual Weight = 17.90kg Total Volumetric Weight = 5.21kg + 22.50kg = 27.7 kg Total Actual Weight = 25.73kg Rounded up to the closest half kilogram: Volumetric Weight = 28kg Actual Weight = 26kg Chargeable Weight = 28kg If the volumetric weight is greater than the actual weight the shipment is charged using the volu
