Passengers traveling with Air China are welcome to bring:

Carry-on Baggage

• Each First Class / Business Class passenger is permitted to carry two (2) pieces of carry-on baggage, with each piece weighing no more than eight (8) kilograms (17 lbs.).
• Each Economy Class passenger is allowed one (1) piece of carry-on baggage, weighing no more than five (5) kilograms (11 lbs.).

The linear dimensions of each carry-on baggage item should not exceed 55 centimeters (22 in.) in length, 40 centimeters (16 in.) in width, and 20 centimeters (8 in.) in height. This ensures that the carry-on baggage can be stored in the overhead compartment or fit under the seat in front of you on the aircraft.

Any baggage that cannot be stored in the overhead compartment or fit under the seat, or is overweight, oversized, or potentially hazardous to safety, must be checked in as checked baggage.
