What Is Included in 2Go Travel 50 Kilos Free Baggage Allowance?

Last updated by Philippine Boats on January 6, 2021

2Go Travel offers FREE 50 kilos of personal baggage allowance but a lot of passengers are confused why they are made to pay additional for baggage fee when they get to the port.

Our Super Ferry Promo Fare team will attempt to give details based on our understanding of the 2Go Travel baggage rules and fees.

However, please note that if you want 100% correct answer, you should contact 2Go directly and talk with their customer service representative. The hotline number of 2Go Superferry is (02) 8 528 7000. You can also try to ask the ticketing officer when you buy your ticket on the following concerns:

  1. What you can bring that is part of the 50 Kilos free baggage allowance?
  2. What items requires additional baggage fee, aside from porter fee?
  3. How much you will pay for freight charges of motorcycle or car?
  4. Will you be required to pay when you get onboard and when you disembark at your destination? Bayad pagsakay, bayad pagdating?
  5. Other concerns

Again, the hotline of 2Go is (02) 8 528 7000. Or you may also try to contact the local 2Go office in your city or town for any concern you may have about baggage handling and rates.

WHAT IS PERSONAL BAGGAGE OR PERSONAL EFFECT?

Based on our assessment, personal baggage are only those necessary things that you need for your trip in reasonable amount. This would be for your personal consumption. Samples would be the following:

  • Clothes including underwear for the entire duration of your travel
  • Hygiene stuff like shampoos, soap, lotion, perfumes, etc
  • Make-up and accessories
  • Extra shoes, sandals, slippers
  • Important documents, papers, travel itineraries, etc.
  • Reasonable amount of food, snack items, beverages
  • Personal gadgets like cellphone, tablet, laptop, camera, tripod, etc
  • Baby food
  • Medicine travel kit
  • Money and jewelries
  • others in reasonable volume or quantity

The operating words would be “reasonable amount needed for your travel personal use”. If you bring one big bag of lotions, then that would be considered “commercial quantity” and not “personal effects or items”. And chances are if you do bring that, the shipping company will charge you a baggage handling fee.

Ultimately, the assessment for baggage fee will depend on the officer at the port who will check your baggage. You will know then if pasok ang dala-dala mo sa 60 kilos of free personal baggage allowance or hindi.

*The porter fee is different from baggage fee.

*The port terminal fee will be collected separately by the Port Authority (not 2Go).

If you have any complaints about what you feel is wrong assessment of your baggage charges or you feel you were overcharge, you can contact 2Go to file a report.
