Fiji Airways, Fiji’s National Airline, has today announced it is increasing Economy Class checked baggage allowance from 23kg to 30kg. All passengers can now enjoy an extra 7kg of checked baggage for all Fiji Airways flights.

With the new 30kg checked baggage allowance, travellers can enjoy extra room in their luggage. Perfect for families or those who are travelling with a lot of gear, whether it be sporting, shopping or photography equipment. The new allowance also applies to flights onwards to/from the USA via Nadi, where Economy Class guests are able to take 1 piece at 30 kg (approx. 66 lbs).

Fiji Airways Managing Director & CEO Mr. Andre Viljoen said, “We encourage and constantly receive feedback from guests on all aspects of our Customer Experience. One of the most common requests has been for more baggage allowance in Economy Class. So, in the lead-up to International Day of Happiness 2020, we’re delighted to announce a 7kg increase in Economy Class baggage allowance across our network. Our service vision for 2020 is to Make Every Moment Better, and we strongly believe the increased Economy Baggage Allowance will help us deliver on this objective.

“Last year, Fiji Airways welcomed two new Airbus A350 XWB aircraft to the fleet to allow for a more luxurious inflight experience for guests. We were also proud to receive a Skytrax 4 Star rating and be awarded Best Airline Cabin Crew in Australia Pacific, we want to continue this momentum in 2020, and offer our guests even better travel experiences,” added Mr Viljoen.

This 30kg baggage allowance is included in all Economy fares and is effective for all tickets purchased on or after 5 March 2020. Business Class baggage allowance remains unchanged. Details are available on the Fiji Airways website.
