NEW BAGGAGE RULES AT DUBAI AIRPORT

Over-packers will have to change how they manage their luggage if they’re flying from Dubai Airport. New rules starting in July require all bags to have one flat surface: No more lumpy round cloth bags or bulging suitcases. Noncompliant baggage won’t be checked-in; passengers can get their luggage repacked into boxes for a fee. The new rules have been introduced to avoid delay-causing baggage jams.
