How much luggage can I take on Chinese domestic flights?
Answer:
According to the regulations of General Administration of Civil Aviation of China:
ž Free luggage allowance for China domestic flights:
Any passenger holding a first class adult ticket or a half-price ticket is entitled to bear the luggage of 40 kg (about 88 pounds) free of charge (checked and carry-on luggage);
Any passenger holding a business class adult ticket or a half- price ticket is entitled to bear the luggage of 30 kg (about 66 pounds) free of charge (checked and carry-on luggage);
Any passenger holding an economy class adult ticket or a half- price ticket is entitled to bear the luggage of 20 kg (about 44 pounds) free of charge (checked and carry-on luggage);
No free luggage allowance for people who hold infant tickets.
ž Carry-on luggage for China domestic flights:
Each first-class passenger is entitled to have two pieces of carry-on luggage;
Each business-class and economy-class passenger is entitled to have one piece of carry-on luggage;
The size of each carry- on luggage should be smaller than 20 X 40 X 55 centimeter (7.8 X 15.7 X 21.6 inches) and total weight should be less than 5 kg (11 pounds). Otherwise, the luggage should be checked together with your other luggage. For luggage in excess of the free luggage allowance in piece, or the sum of the length, width and height of each piece exceeding the prescribed limits, an excess luggage charge should be paid. We recommend for efficient travel that each passenger travel with only one suitcase and one carry- on bag. Excessive number, size, or weight of luggage may result in your inconvenience and/or surcharge.
