Every trip raises a handful of small questions that decide how it goes: will this bag get past the gate, what do I actually need to pack, what will it really cost. These free tools answer one of those questions each, from your own numbers, in a few seconds. Nothing to sign up for and nothing to install, and they work on your phone at the check-in desk as well as on a laptop at home.
Where the rules come from
A tool is only as good as the rule behind it. Airline bag limits come from each airline’s own baggage page, never from another blog, and every tool prints the date its rules were last checked next to the answer. Rules change, so each dataset has a shelf life: when a date gets too old, it gets checked again before it is trusted. For anything that affects whether you can board or enter a country, the tool links the official page, and you should check that page before you travel.
Share an answer, or keep it
Every result has its own link. Copy link saves exactly what you entered, so you can send your packing list to whoever is traveling with you, or check your bag size again at the airport without typing it twice.
Put a tool on your own site
Every tool has an Embed button. It gives you a short piece of code to paste into a page on your blog or website. The tool works there exactly as it does here, free, with a credit line linking back to TravelMagma.
