I have just bought a checked baggage suitcase with L=164 cm, W=40 cm, H=26 cm for Asiana Airline economy class. I want to know if it exceeds the dimension restriction.
Catherine Luther

Hi Roth,
Yes, that exceeds Asiana Airlines’ maximum baggage allowance of 158 linear cms.

My flight is from Tokyo to Uzbekistan through Korea and my baggage allowance is 23kg. I am also wondering how much I have to pay for each extra kg because my baggage is now around 25kg (about 2 kg extra)? On the website it is written like excess weight is charged at $1.7 per kg but it is also written like excess weight from 24-28 is $40 to Japan. I would be so thankful if you can clarify my question. Thank you so much in advance!
Jarrod West
September 11, 2020
Hi Gulnoza,
For this route, the fee you pay should be $40. Thanks for reading!

Hi, going to US via Seattle from Edmonton. I have a carry-on that is 53cm height by 22 depth and 35 width, is that okay as carry on or will I be charged? And weight is 8 kilos?
Catherine Luther
December 29, 2019
Hi Laurence,
I would say that bag would be fine, especially if it’s a soft bag that you can squash slightly if asked to place in a bag sizer. The sum of L + W + H may not exceed 115 cm. The maximum weight of a carry-on is 10 kg.

Hi,
I want to bring a used 32″ TV to the Philippines. My Home Depot box dimensions will total to 63 linear inches and weight will be less than the allowed 50 lbs. Will I be subjected to an additional fee? How much? If dimensions and weight don’t exceed allowed, will there be no additional fee on TV if within my allowed 2 baggages?
Catherine Luther
October 10, 2019
Hi Susan,
Providing the package does not exceed Asiana Airlines’ maximum size and weight restrictions, then they should allow you to check the TV as part of your standard allowance.

Hi, my mom visited us here in Canada and she’s going back home to the Philippines, in economy class. How many checked baggs is she allowed? If we use a balikbayan box, how much weight is allowed and what is the charge?
Jarrod West
October 11, 2019
Hi Elizabeth,
Your mother should be allowed to bring 1 checked bag that does not exceed 23 kgs or 50 lbs. If you use a Balikbayan box then it too should not be larger than 23 kgs or 50 lbs. The box also cannot exceed 158 cms in total dimensions. Keep in mind that we are not Asiana Airlines so feel free to contact them directly for more information!

Hi, my parents will go home on Sunday..departing from Incheon Airport in Korea going back to the Philippines Clark Airport..they have 1 luggage each that weigh 40kg each..so that means they exceed 17 kilos each per luggage. How much will they have to pay for their extra kilos? Thank you in advance for your answer
Catherine Luther
October 17, 2019
Hi Rachelle,
If a bag weighs 33 kg-45 kg, Asiana Airlines charges $170 (per bag). The airline also states that advance notice is required for these overweight bags so you will need to contact Asiana Airlines to inform them.

Christine Krzyszton

Hi Nolan. While the Asiana Airlines web site states that bullets are allowed in check in baggage, it does not state a limit. It also states that airline approval is required for these restricted items. You will need to contact Asiana directly. You can read more here. https://flyasiana.com/C/US/EN/contents/restricted-transport-items

Hi! Our flight will be SFO-MNL-SFO. We are planning to bring balikbayan boxes. The boxes measures: 44.5 cm and 60 cm. width, 54cm height. We will make sure that it will not be heavier than 50 lbs.
My concern is if the balikbayan boxes will be accepted as checked in baggages. Thanks,
Catherine Luther
November 09, 2019
Hi Rose,
Providing your box does not exceed maximum linear dimensions of 158cm then you would be able to check the item. Those measurements are slightly over so you must be prepared to pay oversized charges if the airline does not accept the piece.

Hi, is a backpack considered as a personal item? Will they weigh my carry-on baggage and personal item together? Thank you.
Erin Miller
November 10, 2019
Hi JR, according to the information on Asiana’s baggage fee policy on their webpage, the following are allowed:
“You may take one of the following items into the cabin, in addition to your carry-on baggage.
Small briefcase
Handbook
Laptop computer
Book
Small duty-free item
Infant food to be eaten during the flight
Staff or crutches for disabled passengers
Guide dog for visually handicapped passengers
Small stroller that can be folded flat”
Most airlines will allow a small backpack as a personal item, however, the general rule is that it must be smaller than your carry-on.
Asiana does not state whether or not these items will be weighed separately or together.
I suggest calling Asiana’s customer service line directly to inquire with them. SOrry to not be of more help!

Hi, I will depart from Chicago to Seoul and I have 2 bags free, but my Seoul to Clark has only 1 bag. Do I need to pay the other bag? If yes, how much will it cost? Is it by weight or by the number of bags? Thank you for your help.
Catherine Luther
November 17, 2019
Hi Marivic,
If you booked both of your flights on 1 ticket, then you should have the checked baggage allowance of the most significant flight. But as we’re not Asiana Airlines we can’t confirm this for you 100% and you should contact the airline to confirm.
Ed Tanedo

I am planning to fly from Seattle to the Philippines and thinking about bringing a flat-screen tv, probably 55 inches. The total dimension will definitely exceed the allowable size, but the weight will be in the allowed range. Do you know if ASIANA will allow it and how much it would cost? Many Thanks.
Jarrod West
December 03, 2019
Hi Ed,
It is likely that you will be able to bring the TV as checked luggage, but it will probably be subject to an oversized bag fee. Asiana does not publish what this charge will be on their website, so you will need to contact them directly.

I have 3 bags each weighing 23kg/50lbs. each and have an economy ticket. How much should it cost for the extra/excess baggage. I have looked on their website and because confused between extra baggage vs. overweight. I also cannot get them on the phone.
HELP PLEASE!!!
Thanks and Happy Holidays

December 21, 2019
Hi Ken,
You should have 1 piece included for that route and according to Asiana’s excess baggage information, you would pay $110 for the first additional bag and $160 for the second.

I’m going to fly from San Francisco to Tan Son Nhat Ho Chi Minh Vietnam. It’s Economy so I’m allowed 1 standard carry-on weighing 22bls and 1 personal bag, plus 2 checked bags weighing 50 lbs each right?
If one of my checked bags is over 50 lbs, like 55 lbs. How much I will be charged?

I have two baggage, one is 46 lbs and the other one is 54 lbs, is that ok? Still total 100 lbs.
Jarrod West
January 14, 2020
Hi Fernando,
Unfortunatley, Asiana requires each bag to be under 50 lbs, even if the combined weight is less than 100 lbs.
I recommend you move 4 pounds from one suitcase to the other so that both are under the stated weight limit.
Tony

I will fly from London to Phnom Penh in August. Can I have a carrying bag with a small stroller and a guitar on the plan as I did before with another airline? If I want to have an extra suitcase and a bike in a box (bike standard 140cm), what is the price?
Jarrod West
August 26, 2020
Hi Tony,
Yes, you should be allowed to bring a small stroller and guitar on the plane. As for an extra piece of luggage, for this route it should cost $140 as long as it weighs no more than 23 kgs.
Safe travels!

I have a round trip ticket for international non-U.S route and I have a membership in Silver Class tier. according to what stated above about ‘Exclusions & Waivers’, Asiana offers additional free baggage allowances for Asiana Club membership tiers and for Silver class: the additional 1 x 50 pounds (23 kg).
Could you please explain it more in detail? Does it mean I will be entitled to 1 extra checked bag (23kg)?
Thank you so much
Catherine Luther

Hi Maya,
As silver status, unfortunately you do not receive additional baggage allowance. This is only for Gold+ statuses. The article has been updated accordingly.

Hello,
I am flying from JFK to Tokyo, with a transfer in Seoul. I am having such a hard time finding any store with the correct carry-on requirements for Asiana carry-on, (21.6″×15.7″×7.8″). The main issue is the depth. All bags sold in stores have a depth of 8″-11″. How strict is the airline when it comes to this? If I buy a bag that is 9″ deep, will I have to pay the checked fee for exceeding limits?
Thanks,
Tracey T.
Catherine Luther
February 12, 2020
Hi Tracey,
We can’t comment on how strict the airline is as it can depend entirely on the gate agent on the day. There should be a little flex with the conversion from cm to inches so you should be fine with a 8″ deep bag.

Hi Guen,
Could you clarify which Clark you are referring to? Is it in the U.S.? If so then your mother should be able to be two checked bags weighing up to 50 pounds each. If it is not in the U.S. then she can bring one checked bag for free.

Hi! I am flying on Asiana Airlines from Frankfurt, Germany to CRK (Clark International-Angeles City, Philippines). I have a connecting flight at Seoul.
I have an economy ticket. I have 1 checked baggage weighing 22 kg. And another checked baggage weighing 20kg. Both are within allowed size. How much should it cost for an excess/extra baggage?
I have looked on their website but I am confused that the price might be doubled because of my connecting flight.
Thank you for your answer.

Hello, I have an Asiana flight from Nagoya to Rome (connection in Seoul) so I understand that their policy is only 1 checked baggage allowed since it is a non-U.S. route.
Since I need to bring more baggage (3 in total, to be specific), how much would the fee be? Is it $210 in total or $420 since it is 2 bags more than the 1 allowed?
Thanks for the clarification!
Jarrod West
June 17, 2020
Hi Michele,
Your charge for extra bags should be $140 for the first extra bag, and $210 for the second extra bag. For a total of $350.

Sorik
June 30, 2020
Hello, I am traveling from London to Phnom Penh via Seoul on economy class. The baggage allowance is only 1 piece. So I am thinking of purchasing an additional 2 pieces. However, I can’t do it online. Do you happen to know why? When I tried clicking apply to purchase it says “You cannot pre-purchase baggage allowance for the itinerary you selected.” I noticed you have mentioned above that we cant pre-purchase. But Asiana staff told me to do online. So would like to check if you happen to know why it does not work online.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Jarrod West
July 06, 2020
Hi Sorik,
I cannot say for certain why Asiana is not allowing you to purchase online for your selected route. The best advice that I can offer is for you to contact them again and let them know that their website is not allowing you to complete the purchase. It might be the case that there is an IT issue that needs to be resolved.
Thanks for reading and safe travels!

I am traveling from Japan to the Philippines with a connecting flight to Incheon. I have 3 bags with a total weight of 44kg. The extra piece is a box of e-drum with an amplifier. Am I going to pay for the extra piece even if the total weight is just 44kg?
Jarrod West
July 09, 2020
Hi Albert,
I’m assuming that your 3 bags are comprised of 1 carry-on bag and 2 checked bags? If so, yes you likely will need to pay for the extra checked bag since Asiana only allows for 1 free checked bag on non-U.S. routes.
Safe travels!

Hi Jackie,
For this route, the extra bag charge should be $140. Unfortunately, Asiana does not allow you to purchase extra baggage online.

I am traveling to Bangkok coach class from Los Angeles. Can I take one or two 50 pound bags? The instructions are not clear. Thanks

Hi Marc,
For that route, you should be able to bring 2 checked bags weighing up to 50 pounds each.
Safe travels!

Hello, I am traveling to Manila from Incheon. I get 1 free piece of luggage weighing up to 23kgs. I also reserved another piece of luggage 23kg (it cost 99,000 won). Can I bring my electric guitar to the cabin? Or should it be checked as a 3rd bag? Or is it possible to have 1 small luggage + electric guitar with a total weight of 23kg?
Thank you.

Hi Vira,
How large is your guitar? Carry-on items with Asiana cannot exceed 45 inches (115 cm), with maximum dimensions of:
L = 21.6 inches (55 cm)
W = 15.7 inches (40 cm)
H = 7.9 inches (20 cm)
If your guitar exceeds these dimensions then it will need to be checked. Thanks for reading!

I am traveling from seoul to manila as a merchant marine or seafarer. I’m confused because in my ticket allowed check-in baggage is 2 pcs / 23kg. But when i get to their website site econ class is 1 piece / 23 kg.
Can you please help me with this?

Hi Allan,
If your ticket states that you’re entitled to 2 pieces of luggage weighing up to 23 kgs then that is what you should be able to bring. If you have any other specific questions I recommend you contact Asiana customer service directly at 1-800-227-4262.

I’m traveling between Jeju Island and Seoul this week. I want to bring my hockey bag (under 20 kgs) and a hockey stick. Are one hockey stick and one hockey bag okay?

I am traveling from Tokyo Narita to Incheon. I’m bringing one laptop bag, one carry-on baggage, and 2 checked bags of 23kg each. What luggage is free and which will I have to pay extra for?

Hi Alejandro,
You should only need to pay for your second checked bag, and the price should be $80.
Safe travels!

Hello, I am traveling from Taipei to Los Angeles through Seoul, and my ticket includes two checked bags but I have 3 bags. Can I bring the 3 bags, and how much will I pay for the extra checked bag?

Hi! If I travel from China (Changchun) to Incheon and my checked-in bags total dimensions including wheels and handles is 160cm, is there any chance at all that I can bring it for free? The bag is a little flexible.

Hi Mary,
If your bag is oversized, there are no guarantees with any airline that this will be permitted. It’s likely that it would be fine, but it can depend completely on the check-in agent on the day.

I have 2 pieces of checked luggage each weighing 23 kgs. If I only bring 1 bag, how many kgs is it allowed to be?

Hi April,
Each bag can only weigh up to 23 kgs. So if you only bring 1 bag the maximum it can weigh is 23 kgs. Safe travels!

Hello,
I am planning to buy an extra luggage and my flight is from Seoul to Philippines. Technically it a connecting flight coming from Germany. It states that the amount to pay is $110, is that already back and forth?

Hi Sarena,
If that is the price you were quoted, and the whole itinerary was booked together, then yes that should be the round-trip price.
