[Air Macau] Strict? Air Macau baggage size and weight restrictions summary [Macau Airlines]

Air Macau baggage rules

Summary of size and weight restrictions for Air Macau's carry-on baggage and checked baggage (checked baggage/checked bag).

Air Macau is a legacy carrier that connects Japan with Macau/Macau, a special administrative region and major resort area centered on casinos, and Japan, and also has a mileage program partnership with the Japanese airline ANA.

Air Macau is a very convenient airline when traveling to Macau, but Air Macau's official website is simple and the baggage rules are difficult to understand.

Therefore, in this feature article, we have summarized Air Macau's baggage rules in an easy-to-understand manner, so please use this as a reference when traveling overseas using Air Macau.

Air Macau carry-on baggage restrictions

Let's start with Air Macau's carry-on baggage size and weight restrictions. Air Macau has the following rules for carry-on baggage.

The number limit is 1 main bag (up to a small suitcase), and the weight limit is 7kg, similar to LCC.

However, with Macau Airlines, you can bring additional items such as a laptop (up to 4kg) and duty-free items, separate from your main baggage. The weight limit for these items is also separate, allowing for more flexibility than it may initially appear. The in-flight carry-on baggage rules are accommodating, providing passengers with some leeway.

Air Macau checked baggage restrictions

Next, we will talk about size restrictions, number restrictions, and weight restrictions for checked baggage (checked baggage/check-in bag). Air Macau has the following rules for checked baggage.

Weight limits vary depending on the ticket class, for example, business class has a limit of 40 kg, and economy class has a limit of 25 kg (however, each piece of luggage has a maximum of 32 kg).

The size limit is that the total of the three sides of each piece of luggage must be within 203 cm, but there is no limit on the number of pieces, so you can check in multiple suitcases as long as they are within a certain weight.

Excess baggage charges for checked baggage

Additionally, if your checked baggage exceeds the specified weight, the following additional charges will apply.

Overweight baggage charges are 2,100 yen per kg from Japan to Macau, and 150 MOP (approximately 2,900 yen) per 1 kg when returning from Macau to Japan, so if you want to save money on your trip, consider checking in baggage that is overweight. I would like to avoid this.

All Air Macau tickets include checked baggage.

What do you think of Air Macau's baggage restriction rules? Although there is a strict weight limit for carry-on baggage of up to 7kg, you can bring in items such as laptops and duty-free items, so you can rest assured that the rules for carry-on baggage are actually not that strict.

Furthermore, regarding checked baggage, even with the most affordable economy class airfare, it is possible to check in up to 25kg of luggage for free without a limit on the number of pieces. Therefore, when traveling by air with Macau Airlines, I believe there is no need to be overly strict about the luggage you bring on the plane.

Please note that airline baggage rules are subject to change without notice, so when using Air Macau, be sure to check the Air Macau official website for this information.
