Luggage policy is one of the top causes of transfer friction.

Typical baggage categories

Cabin bag only
Standard checked suitcase
Oversize/special item (ski, bike, instruments)

Practical policy differences

Service type	Standard bag	Oversize item
Shuttle coach	Usually accepted within limit	May require extra fee or refusal
Private transfer	Flexible with pre-notice	Usually possible with suitable vehicle
Taxi	Depends on trunk capacity	Often limited

Oversize success formula

Declare dimensions before booking.
Request written confirmation.
Arrive early to load properly.

Do not assume that "sports bag" means the same thing to every operator.

Quick self-check

Do I know exact item dimensions?
Did I request a vehicle class that fits all pieces?
Did I keep fragile tags visible?

Bottom line

When traveling with special luggage, certainty comes from pre-approval, not from assumptions made at the curb.
