Are carry-on items weighed?
Bags are weighed at check-in and many airlines have placed bag sizers at their gates. If your carry-on bags are too big, you will have to check them. This might cause them to be classified as extra bags which usually carries an extra charge. Be sure to check your airline's website prior to travel.
What happens if you go over PCS weight allowance?
This allowance is based on your rank and offers a set weight limit for how much you can move with you. If you exceed the allowance, you'll have to pay for the overage out of pocket after your move is complete. Your PCS will also vary based on dependents.
