checked baggage
Cargo hold belongings
Checked baggage is luggage that airline passengers hand over at check-in to be stored in the cargo hold rather than carried aboard.
It travels separately from the passenger and is retrieved at the destination's baggage claim: We had to wait forty minutes for our checked baggage.
Airlines typically charge fees for checked baggage and impose weight limits.
