How does a 40 kg checked baggage allowance work on Etihad and Air Seychelles tickets to Seychelles: one suitcase or several?

A 40 kg allowance means the total checked baggage weight, not necessarily one suitcase. You can usually split it across several bags within your ticketed allowance, but a standard bag is up to 23 kg, heavy bags are accepted up to 32 kg with a special tag, and anything over 32 kg is not accepted as regular checked baggage.
