Thai Airways Baggage allowance

[cmsally]

When I bought my ticket about 2 months ago, Thai Airways economy allowance was 20kgs

Then I remember seeing an announcement on a news item that they had increased that to 30kgs

Looking on their website it says 30kgs for economy.

Does anyone know if it is actually 30kgs now for everybody ???

It does say 20kg but they would allow up to 30kg.

Note, they also weigh hand luggage , max 7kg.

Just ring them.

Btw, 20kg means it just has to be under 21kg.
