TL;DR
One traveler was allowed to check 25 kg instead of the 23 kg allowance on Sichuan Airlines without paying extra. A 1–2 kg excess may be accepted, but it depends on the check-in agent.
On a Sichuan Airlines flight, a traveler checked 25 kg with a 23 kg allowance and was not charged. For a 1–2 kg excess, expect the outcome to depend on the individual check-in agent.
One traveler observed that passengers on Asian airlines often carry substantial cabin baggage without close scrutiny. However, this does not guarantee that cabin-baggage limits will not be enforced on a particular flight.
A passenger who is 186 cm tall reported being comfortable on a long-haul Sichuan Airlines flight. This can be useful when choosing a Chinese carrier for travel to Nha Trang.
