Excess Baggage Redemption

When flying Cathay Pacific / Dragonair, you can save on excess baggage costs by redeeming your Asia Miles for extra baggage allowance. The number of Asia Miles required depends on your travel distance.

For example, you need only 5,500 Asia Miles to redeem an additional 10kgs of baggage from Hong Kong to Shanghai (Zone A).
