Dubai Airport has said that it will refuse to accept luggage heavier than 32 kilos starting from 1 November.

The decision is reportedly in line with international regulations and is aimed at reducing the number of reported injuries among baggage handlers, the civil aviation authority said.

The limit is however for individual pieces of luggage and will not affect the total weight allowed per passenger, The Hindu reported.
