ANA checked baggage: fare-dependent pieces and weight

ANA’s current free-baggage pages make the ticketed fare allowance essential. Do not assume every international Economy ticket includes two checked bags, or that every Japanese domestic ticket still uses a flat 20 kg allowance.

International flights

Each piece has a 158 cm total-dimension limit, including handles and wheels. Read the number actually printed on your ticket; these ranges do not grant the maximum to every fare.

Domestic Japan

The current domestic page publishes up to two Economy pieces at 23 kg each and up to three Premium Class pieces at 32 kg each, depending on the fare purchased. The ordinary size limit is 158 cm total. Aircraft restrictions can apply even below that size. Use the ticketed entitlement, not a general maximum or an older 20/40 kg summary.

ANA states that international baggage rules apply to domestic sectors included in international itineraries. Codeshares or another operating carrier can change the applicable rules.

Status and extra baggage

The international page describes eligible Star Alliance Gold benefits as one additional piece or 20 kg above the applicable allowance. Check the benefit for the actual itinerary and membership; do not stack separate status bonuses or infer extra cabin weight.

Extra pieces, excess weight and excess dimensions are different charging cases. Ask for a quote covering all three and confirm that the item can be accepted. Advance payment is not proof of a discount, and a payment does not guarantee transport of an oversized item. Sports gear and instruments need their own handling check.

Pack and check

Measure each packed bag, record its weight, and compare the ticketed piece count. Keep the baggage receipt until collection. Use the airline page for cabin limits; the cabin checker does not validate checked-baggage fees, routing or membership benefits.
