I realize that this is a complex question. So, I pose it to anyone who has moved from overseas recently. When I came abroad, I brought four large suitcases with me and had to pay the equivalent of $100 for each case. It was cheaper, actually than shipping the contents. I may have to go home (not sure) and am thinking about how to pack things up and get them home (USA). I often see people at the international counters with scads of luggage and they are checking them all in. I know that the price of extra luggage has gone up and all that, but is there a limit to how many suitcases one can take? Or can you take as many as you want as long as you can pay the baggage charges? There are so many restrictions, I thought I would check with someone. If you’ve had to move from overseas, other than the important things going in your luggage, what service did you use? (And no, I don’t put check-in valuables.)
