Checked Baggage Weight Regulations
Beginning 1 March 2008, Malaysia Airlines will impose a baggage weight limit on all flights. The maximum weight per baggage is 32 kg (70 lbs).
In order to avoid check-in delays at the airport terminal, please ensure that your luggage doesn't weigh more than 32 kilos (70lbs), or you will be asked to repack and transfer some of your belongings into another bag. Any baggage exceeding 32kg (70 lbs) will need to be transported as freight (cargo).
This restriction is necessary in order to comply with current Health and Safety regulations for baggage handlers. Please note that the maximum weight limit relates only to single items and does not affect the baggage allowance or excess baggage charges.
Please contact MAS offices or MAS travel agents in advance should you have any special baggage i.e. bulky baggage with total linear dimensions exceeding 158 cm (62 inches), bulky musical instruments, sports equipment, photo and film equipment, etc.
