Airlines allow passengers to travel with a certain amount of personal checked baggage free of charge. An airline considers anything that exceeds its baggage restrictions excess baggage and may charge you for it.  

Depending on the airline, type of travel, and origin or destination, airlines may limit either the number of pieces or the weight of your baggage.

Please check with the airline you will be traveling with for restrictions.

For either AIG Allocated or ATP funds, the shell of the CBP facilities is eligible. The USDA inspection facilities are only eligible for AIG Allocated or ATP funds if they are required in the terminal for screening passengers or their baggage, for example, in Hawaii where all passenger baggage (checked and carry-on) is screened by the USDA.  

    According to 49 U.S.C. §40117(a)(3)(I), if a Federal agency workspace element must relocate on airport property due to terminal development or renovation, replacing existing workspace elements is considered eligible for AIG Allocated grants. For instance, if renovating an airport terminal requires replacing CBP facilities, those facilities qualify for funding under AIG Allocated or ATP.
 

Use of AIG Allocated or ATP funds for acquisition and installation of the EDS machines used to screen passenger checked baggage is potentially eligible.  The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) must agree in writing that the EDS machines are required, and TSA must provide evidence that they cannot finance them in the near term. Coordinate with your local ADO/RO. 

Use of AIG Allocated or ATP funds for building modifications needed to accommodate EDS machines used to screen passenger-checked baggage is eligible.  TSA must agree in writing that the proposed space for EDS machines is only that which is needed to meet the minimum space requirement.  Coordinate with your local ADO/RO.
