Aug 8 at 15:57 comment added Ian Ringrose @GiacomoCatenazzi Electric wheelchairs are normaly not charged, but they are often way outside of standard luggage weights.
Aug 8 at 14:48 comment added Nean Der Thal @GiacomoCatenazzi I work for an airline, this is almost a standard, it applies to many things with shapes other than boxes.. they simply might allow it, or reject it, or ask for an extra fee for either the exceedance of dimensions or the weight.
Aug 8 at 10:01 comment added Giacomo Catenazzi @jcaron I disagree, but so this question is more important: we read the same thing in different way (and still we do not have a reference to confirm which interpretation is correct) -- e.g. I would write "oversize" or "overweight" on such case, not unregulated. It seems more a IATA thing (what it is mandatory and what not)
Aug 8 at 9:52 comment added jcaron @GiacomoCatenazzi I believe they mean "an extra fee on top of the regular fee for a piece of luggage" (but that is not always the case, many airlines will carry some specific types of luggage outside the usual limits for the same price as regular luggage).
Aug 8 at 8:29 comment added Giacomo Catenazzi With such interpretation, it would be difficult to think about a possibility of the possibility of being free of charge (... or may be charged extra fee),
