TOKYO December 15, 2014 - ANA is to increase the free baggage allowance for passengers travelling in economy class on international flights.

As from tickets issued on January 8, the passengers will be able to check in two pieces of free baggage as opposed to the one piece under the current rules. The free allowance for weight and size will remain unchanged, as will the free baggage allowance rule for first and business class passengers.

With the expansion of ANA’s international network and increasing customers to/via Japan, ANA is increasing its economy class free baggage allowance to enhance customer benefit and strengthen the competitiveness on international routes.

ANA is also introducing new excess baggage charges mainly paid by Japanese yen, details of which are provided on our web site : http://www.ana.co.jp/
