KLM Excess Baggage

When travelling with KLM Airlines, you will have to pay excess baggage fees if your baggage is overweight. This differs depending on your route of travel and number of bags you are travelling with. For information on excess baggage fees at KLM click here.

KLM Special Baggage

Because of limited space on KLM aircraft’s, you need to reserve for the transportation of some types of special baggage as early as possible – no later than 48 hours before departure. It is also extremely important to ensure that your reservation is confirmed before departure to ensure that you can take your special baggage with you.

My Baggage – Airline Baggage Alternative

KLM is an undeniably affordable travel option if you are travelling with a small amount of luggage off season. However, if you go above the weight allowance, book baggage at the airport or travel during peak periods, you may face considerable extra charges.

Thankfully, that’s where My Baggage comes in.

My Baggage allows you to ship a massive 30kg/66lbs per suitcase or bag at fantastic low rates. You’ll also have the option to pay extra for even heavier bags, if you need to, and you can add as many items as you like to your booking.
