China Travellers Baggage Restrictions
You will travel on domestic China flights during your trip. Viking River Cruises monitors luggage restrictions for the intra-China flights. Luggage allowance is very limited and strictly enforced. On intra-China flights, a guest may carry on 1 piece only; with dimensions not to exceed 8 x 16 x 22 inches (20 x 40 x 55 cm) and the total weight not to exceed 11 lbs. (5 kg). There are no size or piece restrictions for checked luggage allowance for intra-China flights; however guests are allowed a total of 44.2 lbs. (20 kilograms) for all pieces. Any item in excess of the above restrictions must be checked in and excess charges range from $100 - $200 per piece based on weight and distance travelled. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted in carry-on luggage.
On intra-China flights, it is currently recommended to lock checked luggage. Therefore, we suggest you bring a luggage lock for each bag you will be checking in.
