According to the airline's website (Cabin Baggage Allowance), the maximum size of a carry-on bag is 40x34x18, not 40x20x25 (i.e. almost a quarter more capacity) and there is no weight limit (while the discussion below says something about 2 kg).
You're right, I've updated the information. The weight limit is usually not a big deal for carry-on luggage.
Hand luggage? small suitcase, dimensions are known! But is it allowed to carry an additional handbag?
No other personal items are officially allowed.
No mini handbag?
Officially, no mini purse either.
good morning,
I am travelling with three children under 12 but older than 2. Can I take 3 car seats and a pushchair? Thank you
Hello,
are there any special formalities for carrying a sleep apnoea device in addition to hand luggage?
Hello,
it's all written here. Contact and what is needed (doctor's note)
Hello, is it possible to travel in the cabin with a 3,5kg dog?
Hi, does anyone have any experience of what baggage policies apply to a flight purchased through Air France when the operating airline is KM Malta? The Air France app says I can have one personal item and one hand luggage for each passenger. This is usually a carry on and a backpack. Flying Blue Silver doesn't seem to cover this, which is fine, but I'd hate to have a problem with carry on luggage.
The answer is surprising - all connecting passengers with KM Malta have their checked baggage included. So in my case, booked as the cheapest fare through Air France and we have each passenger (4) checked in for free. Flying Blue status is not taken into account.
We are travelling with a 6 month old baby, can we check in a carseat and a pushchair? Or only one?
You can have both a pushchair and a car seat.

Hello,
By adding 32kg of extra luggage, am I allowed to take a maximum of 1 piece of 32kg luggage or can the weight be split between several suitcases? For example 2 suitcases of 16kg.
Thank you
Hello, you can have 1 bag on KM Malta Airlines. The weight cannot be divided between multiple suitcases.
Thank you for your reply.
