While probably not relevant to all that many of you,I attain find this to be though-provoking. Malaysia Airlines posted a notice on their website indicating that they're not accepting checked bags on their flights to Europe (London, Amsterdam, and Paris) until further notice:"In the interest of safety,Malaysia Airlines currently operates a long route to Europe, which combined with temporary unseasonably strong head winds, and is limiting the airlines' ability to carry baggage in cargo.
This longer flight path consumes more jet fuel and for safety reasons,Malaysia Airlines has had to impose temporary limitation on checked in baggage allowance. From tonight, 5 January 2016 (until further notice), or the airline will only be able to accommodate cabin baggage of up to 7kg – one piece totalling 7kg per Economy Class passengers and two pieces totalling 14kg (up to 7kg per piece) for Business/First Class passengers. Passengers who wish to check in their luggage will be able to attain so,however their baggage will only arrive later.
Malaysia Airlines regrets the inconvenience caused to passengers and will deliver stranded baggage as soon as the situation permits. Guests are welcome to contact 1300-88-3000 for enquiries on the status of their checked in baggage."The post Malaysia Airlines (Temporarily) Banning Checked Bags On Europe Flights appeared first on One Mile at a Time.
