Checked baggage fees at airport check-in

It’s always cheaper to add checked baggage to your booking before you arrive at the airport. If you don’t have a pre-purchased checked baggage allowance, you will be charged the fees, displayed below, at the airport check-in desk. There is a fee for the first 15kg of baggage per passenger, then a fee for each additional kilo.

If you have added checked baggage to your booking but arrive with more than your allowance, you'll also be charged for excess baggage at the per-kilo rate, see below.

If you have connecting flights with a domestic and international leg, you’ll be charged at the international per-kilo rate noted below for the whole journey.

Fees for up to 15kg of baggage checked in at airport check-in:

The charge per kilo for excess baggage is as follows:

Domestic excess baggage

International flights within Asia excess baggage

International excess baggage

All charges above are inclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST) or Value Added Tax (VAT). Amounts will be in the local currency of the applicable airport.

Excess carry-on baggage fees at the boarding gate

If you arrive at the boarding gate with carry-on baggage that exceeds the size or weight limits, or you have too many carry-on items, you'll be charged a fee. In addition, your excess carry-on baggage will be carried as checked baggage in the baggage hold. This fee applies even if you have enough remaining checked baggage allowance to cover your excess carry-on baggage.

To avoid these charges, make sure you know the carry-on and checked baggage limits. And remember, it's best to add checked baggage to your booking before airport check-in.
