Philippine Airlines Baggage Allowance, Size, Weight, Fees & Policy 2022

First of all, it’s important to mention that each commercial flight has its own Free Baggage Allowance policy so it might not be applicable for any connecting flights if the allowance is less than. Also, Philippine Airlines may ask a passenger to pay Compensation Charges if their allowance is substantially lesser than the allowance of other connecting flights.

You are allowed to have a carry-on with a maximum total dimension less than 22inches x 14 inches x 9 inches and a maximum weight of 7kgs or 15 lbs.  Suppose you’re travelling internationally in economy class. In that case, you can carry a maximum of 25kg per person.

Domestic Flights Allowance:

The flights operated by PAL in the Philippines are for locals to use.

Before you book your domestic flight, there are two classes that can range from spending a comfortable amount of time in the air and not stressing out, to feeling completely overwhelmed and being kicked off the airplane.

• Economy class
• Business-class.

Note: The economy class can be divided into five subclasses based on the facilities provided. Similarly, the business class has two subclasses. On the basis of this division, there are different weights for the FBA for each class and these weights are mentioned in the table below.

In a domestic flight, economy class is the best option for transporting luggage. The passenger can carry up to 10 kg of luggage or 25 kg if they wish to carry nothing at all.

Business Class: If you are traveling in business class on a domestic flight, you can carry as many suitcases of an amount equal to 30-35 kg per person.

International Flights Allowance:

• Economy class passengers can carry up to 23kg per piece of baggage and 30kg per piece if departing from the USA or Canada. Passengers travelling from Asian countries not including Korea, but traveling to or from either country in a standalone period, can carry a maximum of 20kg of baggage. If you are travelling only within Korea, you are limited to 25kg per piece of baggage.

• Business classes are for travelling to/from Asian countries except for Korea. If you’re travelling to/from American or Canadian cities, you can carry a maximum of 32 kg per piece of baggage and up to four pieces at once. If you’re travelling to/from Korean cities, you can carry up to 30-35kg of baggage at a time.

International Codeshare Flights:

Codeshare flights operate with a partnered airline. Codeshare flights help trade efficiency and traveler satisfaction by offering more options to travelers are able to select from.

Philippine Airlines Extra Baggage Allowance:

The amount of EBA that an individual is charged depends on the kind of service they are travelling.

• With the current high fees, it is not surprising that passengers are often discouraged from travelling to and from Asian countries.
• On the other hand, the airports to and from the Pacific are in Auckland, Sydney, etc., so a departure fee is around USD 24.
•  European routes carry more weight if you need to carry a lot of luggage with you. Additional fees drive the cost up by three or four times as much as it is for Asia and Pacific routes.
• A weight limit may be set on the number of pieces allowed to fly and that limit is USD 100 per piece instead of in kilograms.
• Starting at USD 120 by piece, we offer the capability to ship internationally and track orders all the way.

Airlines offer different allowances for carrying baggage in the case of different routes and these allowances do vary depending on what route you’re planning to take.

Like other airlines use Excess Baggage Fee, the same implemented by Philippine Airlines; fees such as 20 dollars per extra kg are applicable in this case.

Philippine Airlines Infant’s Baggage:

People must not take larger bags than 62 inches through the size of a regular sized suitcase.

It depends on how much extra space is available. Sometimes a fully collapsible stroller or infant’s carrying basket may be allowed, but sometimes it may depend on how much extra space is available.

If you have an infant, follow standard FBA rules when it comes to bringing them in the store.

PAL Multi-City Baggage:

If the passenger travels to multiple cities using a single PAL ticket, ticketing costs will vary depending on the passenger’s most significant carrier.

If a passenger wants the item to travel the first leg of their journey, the first Marketing Carrier will determine what the freight charges will be. If a passenger has a one-way ticket that starts or ends in the USA or Canada, then only applicable processing is charged to FBA and EBA.

CPAP Devices:

• Passengers may bring portable oxygen concentrators, ventilators, etc. aboard following the provided guidelines/instructions.
• It is important to find out if passengers’ devices are allowed onboard, which can be done through contacting the airline.
