Economy Class passengers can check in a second piece of luggage at a flat fee of EUR 50. When departing the United States, this fee is USD 50. The fee for a second piece applies only to tickets purchased per November 1st.

Check in online and get 20% discount
A second piece can easily be paid for when checking in. If you arrange for this piece when checking in online via KLM.com, you pay 20% less: all you need is a credit card. Then hand over your luggage at a baggage drop-off point at the airport. Of course you can also arrange for your excess baggage at the check-in desk at the airport.
Piece concept
Our flights between Europe (including Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia), and the United States fall under the piece concept. This means that on these routes, you may bring a number of pieces of check-in luggage. Your free baggage allowance is always stated on your e-ticket. And of course you can find all details on baggage on our website.
