WHAT IT THE LUGGAGE ALLOWANCE ON THE INTERNAL FLIGHTS ?
SOUTH AFRICA Officially, the allowance is 20kgs per person for checked baggage and 7kgs for carry on. 7kgs as we all know is not enough for camera equipment. The airlines are generally very relaxed with regards to camera equipment. Some clients have had no problems at all, others have had some hassle but have always stuck to their guns and refused for equipment to go in the hold and that has worked. It would also depend on how much equipment you bring. If you are able to fit most of what you need in a single bag such as a think tank, plus a laptop as carry on you should be ok. My general set up for travel, which can all fit in a think tank airport accelerator is as follows: 500mm f4 canon 70-200mm f 2.8 28-135mm 15-30mm 2 x bodies 1.4TC Flash This selection will cover all general photo opportunities. If you are planning on bringing more I would recommend wearing a photo jacket into which you can pack extra equipment if necessary. KENYA & TANZANIA The internal flights in are more strict
