any experience contacting KLM about some flexibility here? This was an involuntary change.

and indeed: never again codeshare flight without luggage.

other question: what would MH charge in this case: everthing under excess prices or would they have a standard bag fee?
This changes everything! Like @sehgalanuj said, try to get a better routing, for example with Bangkok Airways. According to KLM website, with Bangkok Airlines the following will apply:
If you’re flying with Bangkok Airways, the following applies:
  • If the first flight of your journey is operated by Bangkok Airways, you can check in via their website or at the airport.
  • If you’re flying in Business Class, you can access Bangkok Airways’ Blue Ribbon Club lounges.
  • If you’re a Flying Blue member, you can spend Miles on Bangkok Airways flights with a PG flight number. You can’t earn Miles on Bangkok Airways flights.
Or if your trip is after November 27, AF will start serving Phuket.
