Etihad Airways to provide complimentary baggage allowance

KATHMANDU: Etihad Airways, the national airlines of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), has increased the complimentary baggage allowance for Coral Economy class guests to 30 kg, a press statement of the airlines said.



 The Etihad elite members traveling in economy will now be able to check as much as 50 kg baggage on a complimentary basis. “We believe our generous baggage allowances will prove very popular with our guests across all cabins, from Coral Economy to Pearl Business and Diamond First Class, while our Etihad Guest members enjoy even more baggage rewards,”



 Peter Baumgartner, Etihad Airways Chief Commercial Officer, said in the statement. In March 2012, Etihad Airways had increased the baggage allowance for premium passengers to 40 kg for Pearl Business class and 50 kg for Diamond First class. However, the scheme will not be valid to travel to and from USA and Canada.
