TL;DR
According to traveler reports, VietJet baggage is treated as 20 kg per passenger in total, with a 32 kg maximum for any single checked bag. The allowance can be split across multiple bags, and a child with their own seat also counts toward the baggage allowance even without a separate suitcase.
For fares that include 20 kg checked baggage per passenger, travelers report that the total can be counted across the whole booking: for example, 4 passengers would have 80 kg combined, as long as each individual bag stays within the per-piece limit.
Based on passenger experience, a single checked bag should not exceed 32 kg. So a setup like 30 + 30 + 20 kg across three suitcases fits the stated per-bag weight rule.
Travelers also note that you can check more than one suitcase per person; the key is to stay within the total paid allowance and keep every individual bag under 32 kg.
If a child has their own seat, travelers say that child’s baggage allowance still counts even without a separate suitcase. Items can be packed into a box, bag, or the family’s other luggage as long as the total allowance is respected.
