Moving: Baggage



Accompanied

Accompanied baggage is the luggage service members and family members carry on an airplane, bus, train or car. It also refers to personal documents and property such as jewelry. It is not counted in the moving weight limit.

Unaccompanied baggage

“Unaccompanied baggage” for moves overseas refers to belongings needed immediately upon arrival at a new duty station, such as clothes, linens and small appliances. It is typically sent ahead on a commercial carrier and arrives before the main household goods shipment. The weight is subtracted from the full weight allowance as set by Joint Federal Travel Regulations.

Unaccompanied baggage can be shipped in addition to an administratively restricted weight allowance. Each service has its own rules.
