Business Class
Business Class passengers are allowed between 35 kg and 40 kg of checked baggage depending on fare type. Cabin baggage includes two pieces, each weighing up to 12 kg total.

First Class travellers benefit from up to 50 kg of checked baggage, along with two cabin bags totalling up to 12 kg. The Residence passengers receive the same generous allowance.
Infant Baggage
Infants travelling without a seat are entitled to 10 kg of checked baggage. One stroller or carrycot is included, and a car seat may be accepted, subject to Etihad safety and size conditions.
Special Equipment
Items such as golf bags, skis, bicycles, and musical instruments usually require advance notice. Acceptance and fees depend on the item size, weight, and route, and are assessed individually by Etihad.
Excess Baggage
Extra charges apply if you exceed your baggage allowance. Pre-purchasing excess baggage online is usually cheaper than paying at the airport. Final costs depend on the route and total weight and are confirmed during booking or at check-in.
Best Months to Visit
For Hong Kong, shoulder seasons typically offer good value and pleasant weather. These periods fall outside major holidays and peak travel seasons.
Peak Travel Periods to Avoid
Fares are typically higher during major holidays, school holidays, Christmas, New Year, and peak summer months when demand is at its highest.
When to Book for the Best Prices
Booking 8 to 12 weeks in advance often gives the best balance of availability and price. Last-minute deals are rare on Etihad long-haul routes to Hong Kong.
Sales & Promotions
Etihad often runs fare sales around Boxing Day, January sales, Black Friday, and occasionally in late summer or early autumn. Sale routes and dates vary each year.
Price Alerts & Deal Tracking
Setting up fare alerts with Etihad or a trusted travel agent helps you spot limited-time offers as soon as they're released.
