Malaysia Airlines Baggage Allowance

It would be good to inform the airline in advance about it. You might be asked to bring doctor documents prescribing it as well. So, it is a good idea to inform the airline in advance.

Your free allowance would be 25 kg check in baggage weight. However, you can take a maximum of 32 kg weight in one check in bag (on payment of charges of excess weight)

Are a and b referred to persons or airlines? Please be clear in asking queries. There are 4 economy class fares, which of these has been booked by you? Minimum check in baggage allowance is 20 kg per person for Economy Promo tickets. Free carry on baggage allowance is 7 kg per person.

Size shall be same which is provided for cabin baggage because you will have to keep this either in overhead cabin or in underneath seat. 

The oversized baggage charges vary from route to route. Please check with the local airline office. Most probably, they will advise you to repack it into 2 bags keeping overall weight same and reducing size of one check in bag to up to 158 cm in linear dimensions.

Only check in baggage can be clubbed with passengers traveling on same pnr and subject to the weight limit of 1 check in bag not exceeding 32 kg and size of 158 cm linear dimensions. This is allowed only on weight-based baggage allowance routes, not on piece based ones. 

You have not mentioned the route you are flying.

PLease mention the route and which fare ticket has been bought?

USD 20 per excess kg would be the charges for excess baggage. If you buy pre-paid excess baggage online, then a 20% discount can be availed. However, this must be done up to 24 hours before the scheduled flight departure time.

Yes, it can be brought in cabin within the permitted allowance limit of weight and size of carryon baggage. 

If you have Economy Smart ticket, it will have allowance of 30 kg in check-in. If you have Economy Flex ticket, then allowance is of 35 kg per person. So, it depends on which Economy ticket have you bought. Please note that no check in bag shall be more than 32 kg in weight. So, if your allowance is of 35 kg, then it has to be divided into two check-in bags.

These have to be at least 2 bags of each weight not more than 32 kg. Airline do not allow checkin bags of more than 32 kg weight, in general.

You have not mentioned which fare type within Economy class has been booked by you. However, you are entitled to a 30 kg allowance on Economy Smart tickets. If it is not showing on ticket, please speak to the airline customer support. Have you booked with any agency? If yes, then ticket might not be showing it due to improper feed of baggage allowances.

It will be taken as a part of check in baggage within the free allowance limits permissible to you. So, linear dimensions of TV package shall be less than 158 cm and weight shall be within free allowance. TV screen size does not matter.

The problem is the size of bicycle baggage. It is more than 204 cm which means that it will have to sent through cargo services of the airline and will not be checked-in. Bicycle boxed up to 158 cm in sum of dimension are allowed without charge as part of check in baggage and from 158 cm to 204cm, oversize charges are to be paid.

If airline is Malaysia airline only on both legs of journey, generally the higher cabin class baggage allowance applies to lower cabin classes as well. We would still request you speak to local airline office for better confirmation since we do not have your itinerary details.

Only Economy Lite tickets do not have free check-in baggage allowance on domestic routes within Malaysia on Malaysian Airlines. You might have booked this fare type which allows only 7 kg cabin baggage. Economy Basic allowed 20 kg free allowance in check in and Economy Flex allows 25 kg in check in baggage on domestic route. Business class passengers are allowed 40 kg free allowance. 

That is right.

Of course, the airlines are waiting to charge you if you exceed the weight, size or number of bags limits of free allowance of your baggage. 

This can be carried within the free cabin baggage allowance limits with respect to weight and size of the baggage. Else, these can be taken in check-in by marking it as 'Fragile'.

You can bring more than one check in bag within 30 kg weight limit. You can bring this item in check in luggage. Whether this would be charged or not will depend on discretion of airline officials at airport. 

You might be asked to transfer some of the items to check in baggage.

You just have to check what allowance is permitted for your cabin fare type. You do not have to split the baggage.

These shall not be a problem if brought in suitable packing.

L+B+H shall be upto 158 cm.

They would consider total weight of the bags. Laptop can be carried in addition to cabin allowance. 

Excess 10 kg is meant for check in baggage. No single check in bag shall be more than 32 kg in weight. So, if it is already 25 kg, you can accomodate max 7 kg in that bag from the additional allowance of 10 kg, leaving 3 kg which is to be taken in another check in bag. You can bring laptop in addition to cabin bag. 

Charge is USD 42 per excess kg. Please apply the conversion rate to get an approximate idea of how much you will have to pay.

In economy class travel, 30 kg is free check in baggage allowance per person and there is no limit on number of bags to be carried. We believe that you might not have checked the airline website as the allowance for baggage is not dependent on the number of bags being carried. In your case, there is no problem with the way you are taking the three bags and there will not be any charge for 26 kg bag. 

1 cabin bag and 1 personal item can be taken for economy class travel. The personal items shall not look like another bag for carrying articles.

The problem is with the size of the baggage. Max limit of single check in bag is 158 cm and your one exceeds this. Either you will have to pay charges or will have to send through the cargo route.

No, these are not in conflict. In reply to Chris Villarea, the question asked was whether check in bag can be 20/20. This meant whether 2 bags of 20 kg each could be taken. To this we replied that allowance is a max of 30 kg and if you want to take it in 2 bags, you can take.
