Baggage Allowance

1) Domestic flights
Passengers traveling first class that hold adult or child tickets are permitted to carry on two pieces of hand baggage. For business or economy class passengers, only one piece of carry on baggage is allowed. Your hand baggage should be less than five kilograms (about 11 pounds) in total and any piece must have dimensions no larger than 20×40×55 centimeters (8×16×22 inches).
From May 1, 2007, a new regulation that limits liquids has been enforced. Each passenger is allowed to take on board not more than one liter (excluding alcohol). Each container should contain no more than 100 ml. The liquid container should be carried in a transparent plastic bag for the convenience of security checking. Duty-free liquid brought from other countries should also be packaged and checked in this way. Alcohol can only be taken as checked luggage. Liquid medicine and milk within a certain limit are allowed subject to checking.
