Ticket allowance
What your ticket includes
BagCheck may need cabin class before it can give a definitive ticket-allowance answer.
Economy and Premium Economy permit one 5 kg cabin bag; Business and First permit two cabin bags up to 8 kg each. One under-seat personal item is also permitted.
Air China does not publish a universal numeric box for the under-seat personal item. Select the cabin class to evaluate the applicable cabin-bag quantity and weight.
