Philippines Airlines Baggage Policy
Although allowances and taxes are still dependent on the route, cabin class, and price type, Philippines Airlines Baggage Policy has been modified to accommodate a variety of travel demands. As such, it is crucial to confirm your exact ticket details prior to departure. Each traveler is allowed one standard bag in addition to one personal item, such as a laptop bag or purse; the carry-on must weigh no more than 7 kg (15 lbs) and measure no more than 56 cm by 36 cm by 23 cm (22 x 14 x 9 inches) including wheels and handles. slipping under the seat or into the overhead bin. In the Philippines, Economy class usually allows 30 kg (66 lbs) per piece, Premium Economy allows 30 kg, and Business Class allows 40 kg (88 lbs). On international flights, Economy usually allows one piece up to 23 kg (50 lbs), Premium Economy allows one piece up to 30 kg (66 lbs), Business Class allows one piece up to 40 kg (88 lbs), and First Class allows one piece up to 50 kg (110 lbs), though some international Economy fares may include 30 kg or allow two pieces. Significant excess baggage fees are assessed per piece for exceeding these weight or size restrictions (maximum 158 linear cm/62 linear inches), with higher rates for overweight (e.g., 23–32 kg in international economy) or oversized/overweight bags (over 32 kg or exceeding dimensions). Special items like musical instruments, sports gear (like surfboards and golf clubs), and mobility aids are subject to special regulations and frequently need to be arranged in advance at an additional cost. In addition to a folding stroller or car seat, infants who are not using a seat are normally permitted one checked bag up to 10 kg (22 lbs). Although PAL's revised policy places an emphasis on efficiency and clarity, travelers should always refer to the official Philippine Airlines website for the most current baggage allowances, fees, and restrictions tailored to their specific itinerary to avoid unexpected charges and ensure a seamless journey.
