FAQ

Can I buy extra baggage online after booking?

Yes. Prepaid baggage can be bought on the Jiangxi Air official website, WeChat mini-program, airport counters and the 0791-96300 call center for RY-operated ticketed flights, up to 2 hours before departure and before check-in.

Where do I buy extra baggage?

Buy it on airjiangxi.com (预付费行李 entry, Egret Club login required), the airline mini-program, airport check-in counters, or via the 0791-96300 call center. Manage or refund it under My Orders – Value-added Services – My Baggage on the official site.

When is the deadline to buy extra baggage online?

Prepaid baggage is sold from ticket issuance until 2 hours before scheduled departure, and must be bought before check-in. Free cancellation is also only possible before check-in.

How does the airline calculate extra baggage charges?

Prepaid baggage uses weight-based tiered pricing that differs by route; the exact amount is only shown on the official site after entering a booking. Airport excess is charged at 1.5% of the full Y fare per kg on domestic routes, and at fixed per-piece CNY/USD rates on international and regional routes.

How many extra bags can I buy, and what are the bag limits?

Prepaid: one purchase per ticket per segment, max 30 kg, for the ticket holder only; each bag ≤ 50 kg and ≤ 40×60×100 cm. Checked maxima: 50 kg/piece domestic, 45 kg/piece on US-involved international routes, 32 kg/piece on other international/regional routes; pieces over 45 kg or larger than 300 cm total are refused.

What are the overweight or oversized baggage rules?

Overweight of 23–32 kg costs CNY 1,000 (USD 140) per piece and 32–45 kg costs CNY 3,000 (USD 420) per piece on international/regional routes; oversize of 159–203 cm costs CNY 1,000 (USD 140) per piece. Pieces of 32–45 kg or 203–300 cm need prior airline approval. If piece count, size and weight are all exceeded, charges accumulate.

Is it cheaper to buy extra baggage online in advance vs at the airport?

Prepaid baggage is discounted versus airport excess rates: any weight above the prepaid amount topped up at the airport is charged at full excess rates with no prepaid discount, and unused prepaid weight is not refunded in cash (multi-no-refund, shortfall top-up).

Do partner-operated or codeshare flights have different baggage rules?

Prepaid baggage cannot be bought for codeshare flights, only for RY-operated Jiangxi Air flights. Free allowance and excess rates on international/regional codeshare flights follow the codeshare agreement.

Can I get a refund or transfer extra baggage if I cancel or change my booking?

Before check-in, prepaid baggage can be cancelled free of charge but only via the original purchase channel. Voluntary ticket changes require refunding the old baggage order and buying a new one; involuntary changes get a full refund of the prepaid amount. E-invoices are available within 30 days after travel via 0791-96300.

Are there any important exceptions or restrictions I should know?

Prepaid baggage is currently unavailable on routes originating in Changchun, Dalian, Jieyang, Shenzhen, Nanning, Ningbo, Luoyang, Linfen, Wanzhou and Nanyang, and on Nanchang–Beijing (Capital and Daxing) round trips. It is limited to adult and child tickets, not infant tickets.
