Baggage Allowance

Baggage

Baggage Allowance includes all items that may be carried (in the cabin and in the hold) free of charge according to the fare purchased.

There are promotional fares which do not include baggage in the hold. In this case, you may purchase additional baggage in advance up to 3 hours before the departure of the flight through our webpage, the contact center, one of our offices, or at the airport.

We recommend that you write your personal information on your carry-on baggage and on your baggage sent to the hold.

 

Carry-on baggage can be taken on board, subject to the space available in the cabin. In case it cannot be carried on board due to operational issues, it will be sent to the hold free of charge, even if it qualifies as checked baggage as regards size and weight.

Conversely, if your carry-on baggage does not comply with the maximum amount, size and weight allowed, you will have the chance to send it to the hold of the plane at an extra cost. If you decide not to do that, we will not be able to carry your baggage on board.

As a recommendation, we suggest that you keep with you any fragile or valuable items as well as your documentation and medication.
