You can purchase baggage allowance from 15kg up to 40kg. The price charged depends on departure port and arrival port. This link lets you check if you are planning to fly. http://www.airasia.c...eeschedule.page I arrived in Bangkok from the UK with my case weight 20 Kilos, I then wanted a single flight to Phitsanulok max weight for luggage 15 kilos. Welcome back to LOS land of stupidity. Like I was going to dump 5 kilos from my case. I just got a bus. When arriving in Bangkok from Europe using Emirates my large bag is usually full of presents and somewhere between 25-30 kg. My second leg then is domestic (sometimes to Ubon - closest airport to my home - or starting with a trip to another thai destination). Instead of taking the top-heavy bag with me for the intermediate holiday or second leg (and having to pay overweight luggage on the domestic flights), I simply go to the ThaiPost office located at the end of the last row for International departures. I then 'unload' at least 10 kg and choose a carton box-size that will fit the stuff. The cost - if I recall well - is approx 250 THB (box included and they will add paper/plastic bubble-foil to protect any fragile stuff at no cost). The parcel will be delivered within 2 days at your door-step (and I live in the sticks). No need to take EMS or express-service, the regular ThaiPost delivery service is amazingly fast. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very interesting, I wish there was something similar at British airports as I usually want to bring more things back to Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I'm about to book a flight with air Asia from Khon Kaen to Bkk return. I don't expect to have more than 15 kg going. Do I have to pay the 300 baht for 15 kg fee? I expect coming back from UK, my daughters will have heaps of stuff, it looks like 30 kg is 600 baht each, fair enough. But the question, do I need to pay an extra 300 baht each when booking for the first trip if we have only 15 kg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
