FAQ
Frequently asked about Air Niugini baggage
What are the rules on liquids and sharp items in hand luggage?
Standard IATA rules apply on almost every airline: liquids of 100 ml or less each, together in a 1 litre transparent bag. Knives and scissors with blades over 6 cm go in checked baggage. Lithium batteries and power banks must travel in the cabin, never in the hold.
How do I avoid paying baggage fees?
Weigh and measure your bag at home, and add any checked bag when you book rather than at the airport, where it typically costs two to three times as much. Frequent-flyer status often includes an extra bag.
