EgyptAir Baggage Policy

Passengers travelling with EgyptAir from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) are permitted to carry the following:

Carry-on Baggage

Passengers travelling on EgyptAir flights departing from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) may bring cabin baggage according to their travel class:

• Economy Class: 1 cabin bag up to 8 kg (17.6 lbs).
• First / Business Class: 2 cabin bags with a combined weight of up to 8 kg (17.6 lbs).

Each cabin bag must not exceed 56 cm × 40 cm × 23 cm, including handles, pockets and wheels, and must be suitable for storage in the overhead compartment or under the seat.

All cabin baggage is subject to security screening at KLIA. Bags exceeding the permitted weight or size limits must be checked into the aircraft hold.

Checked Baggage Policy

EgyptAir’s checked baggage allowance for international flights, including services between Cairo and Kuala Lumpur, is based on the passenger’s fare type and class of travel:

• Economy Class: 1 piece up to 23 kg (50 lbs).
• First / Business Class: 2 pieces, each up to 32 kg (70 lbs).

Each checked baggage piece must not exceed 158 cm (62 inches) in total linear dimensions (length + width + height).

The maximum weight allowed for any single checked baggage piece is 32 kg (70 lbs). Baggage exceeding this limit must be shipped as cargo and cannot be accepted as checked baggage.

Passengers should verify the exact baggage allowance shown on their ticket or booking confirmation before departure, as allowances may vary depending on the purchased fare and itinerary.

Extra Baggage

Passengers may purchase additional baggage allowance through EgyptAir before departure, subject to availability and applicable charges.

Excess baggage fees apply when baggage exceeds the permitted allowance in terms of weight, number of pieces or dimensions. Purchasing additional baggage in advance may provide more flexible options compared with payment at the airport.

Sports equipment, oversized items and special baggage require compliance with EgyptAir’s handling requirements and may be subject to additional charges or advance arrangements.
