When transporting oversized items by air to the United States, the specific restrictions on size and weight mainly depend on the selected airline and aircraft model. However, most airlines have a set of universal standards for the transportation of oversized items. Here are some common restrictions:

Size limit for individual cargo: Generally, the sum of the three sides (length+width+height) of a single cargo cannot exceed 300 centimeters, but some airlines may allow larger sizes.

Length limit for individual cargo: The length of individual cargo usually cannot exceed 270 centimeters, but some airlines may accept longer cargo.

Weight limit for individual cargo: Most airlines stipulate that the weight of individual cargo cannot exceed 200 kilograms, but some airlines may accept heavier cargo.

Total weight limit: If your cargo consists of multiple parts, the total weight of all components must also comply with the airline's regulations.

For oversized items that exceed the above standards, airlines may provide specialized services, but this usually requires advance application and may incur additional fees.
