Ticket allowance
What your ticket includes
Your answer depends on more detail
BagCheck may need cabin class before it can give a definitive ticket-allowance answer.
Cabin weight depends on cabin class: 7 kg in Economy and Premium Economy, or 10 kg in Business and First. One personal article up to 3 kg is separate.
This record applies only to Air India-operated flights (AI), not Air India Express (IX). One cabin piece is permitted under the published one-hand-baggage rule.
