Are there any particular rules for special baggage such as oversize or fragile items, musical and sport equipment when traveling on a self-transfer trip?

When traveling on a self-transfer trip, since you are flying with different airlines each with its own rules and policies, the first thing you should do is check their specific baggage allowance. Check their policies regarding special baggage, oversize bags or fragile items. Same apply for sport or musical equipment.

If you are traveling with pets, remember that each airline will apply their own policies and rules.
