Excess baggage allowance on Ural Airlines flights
If the weight or dimensions of checked baggage exceed the free baggage allowance on the plane, then when purchasing a ticket you must book and pay for its transportation.
If the carriage of such baggage is not booked, then excess (oversized, heavy) baggage will be transported only if the airline has the technical capabilities. You will have to wait for your flight to check in, but this baggage may still be refused carriage.
Transportation of excess baggage can be paid in advance (when registering for transportation) or at the point of departure for the entire transportation to the destination at the baggage rate in effect on the day of issuance of the paid baggage receipt or miscellaneous fee order.
Oversized and heavy baggage is accepted for transportation only subject to prior reservation and confirmation of the airline's consent to transport this baggage.
Items whose dimensions exceed 203 cm in the sum of three dimensions and weigh 50 kg are accepted for transportation as cargo.
If the size is more than 203 cm by the sum of three dimensions but not more than 220x80x50, transportation of baggage is allowed only upon prior request of a special service, no later than 24 hours before the flight departure. Transportation of such baggage will be carried out only if there are free capacities on the aircraft.

From November 20, 2016 tariffs for payment of excess, oversized and heavy baggage are changing.
Allowable baggage weight on an airplane in 2018
Global statistics clearly say that the plane is the safest mode of transport. But this was achieved on a global scale only thanks to strict standards and transportation rules. One of these norms is permissible weight of baggage on an airplane for one passenger.
Despite the fact that many consider this norm to be a whim of the airlines, it is based on serious calculations. Any aircraft certified for flights has such characteristics as maximum take-off weight and permissible payload weight. Exceeding the weight of the aircraft according to these indicators directly affects flight safety.
In addition, it is not difficult to guess that each “extra” place requires additional effort to process baggage, register it, control it, and deliver it. Therefore, budget airlines, which make money by cutting costs as much as possible, are trying to limit passengers in this matter even in 2018.
Global standards and rules
What is the allowable weight of luggage on an airplane in 2018? To begin with, let us explain that all baggage accompanying passengers during the flight can be divided into 3 categories:
Free of charge, according to the law of the Russian Federation and international rules, the airline is obliged to transport 1 piece of baggage weighing no more than 10 kg and personal belongings (reading book, umbrella, laptop, etc.). Companies transport everything else at their own discretion, guided by their own rules.
At the same time, as in any other issues related to air transportation, you can be guided by a simple truth - the more expensive the ticket, the greater the permissible weight of luggage on the plane, which a passenger can carry for free.
Most modern airlines, including the leaders of the domestic air transportation market, evaluate all their passenger’s baggage according to three criteria:
When purchasing a ticket, you need to pay attention to the tariff plan - it is according to which each airline determines how many seats and how much weight a passenger can carry. In addition, loyalty program participants are given additional privileges.
Important! When calculating the weight of luggage on the plane before the flight, keep in mind that for a child under 2 years old, even without their own seat, you can take 1 piece of luggage weighing up to 10 kg for free.
Naturally, there is a list of items and things that will not get on the plane in any case, for security reasons. This is described in detail in the article - how to transport luggage correctly.
What luggage can you take on board an airplane in 2018?
Bags and suitcases that a traveler takes with him inside an airplane are called hand luggage.
You can bring 1 piece of hand luggage weighing no more than 10 kilograms on board the aircraft free of charge. This norm is guaranteed by law.
But there is a small nuance here - most airlines have restrictions on the size of hand luggage. The most commonly used are: dimensions no more than 55x40x20 cm or no more than 115 cm in the sum of 3 dimensions.
In turn, airlines reward travelers who buy expensive tickets in high classes of service by increasing their rates.
For example, business class passengers of S7 Airlines in 2018 can take 2 pieces of hand luggage into the cabin with a total weight of no more than 15 kg.
When discussing the allowable weight of luggage on an airplane, we must not forget about personal items that are not considered carry-on luggage by law.
In excess of the established free baggage allowance and without additional payment, the passenger has the right to transport individual items, the list of which is precisely defined in paragraph 135 of the Federal Aviation Regulations. Read more about this here.
What kind of luggage can be transported as cargo?
Larger bags are accepted into the cargo compartment of the aircraft than into the cabin. However, here too there are a number of restrictions for passengers that apply in 2018.
There is no legal requirement for free checked baggage for passengers. This has made it possible for many airlines to introduce so-called “baggage-free” fares, significantly reducing the cost of flights for business people and light travelers. These, for example, include “Light” tariffs from Utair or “Economy-Promo” tariffs from Ural Airlines.
For standard Economy class fares, which most carriers have, the free allowance is 1 piece weighing no more than 23 kg. But there are exceptions here too - so before flying you should always look at the information on the website of a specific company.
Important! Russian airlines do not take on board luggage weighing more than 50 kg. In most European countries, the maximum permissible weight is no more than 32 kg. There, even a porter at the airport will refuse to bear such a “heaviness,” citing the instructions of the trade union.
The largest Russian airlines and their free baggage allowances:
By the way, many airlines are willing to additionally transport sports equipment (skis, snowboards, etc.) free of charge. Information about this will certainly appear in news and announcements.
In addition, some routes (usually long-haul flights) may have their own rules.
Exceeding standards
What if the quantity, weight, size exceeds or you need to transport oversized cargo? You'll have to pay extra.
Moreover, the existing rules of most airlines do not require dividing and summing seats. That is, instead of 1 suitcase weighing 23 kg, you cannot take 2 bags weighing 10 and 11 kg. It is not possible to combine a husband's and wife's luggage into one bag weighing 45 kg.
Airline fines for exceeding standards:
Aeroflot and Rossiya
"Siberia"
"Ural Airlines"
“Pobeda” (all baggage except hand luggage and personal items is considered excess)
Ural Airlines baggage rules 2018
On Ural Airlines planes, new rules for carrying baggage in the cabin will begin to apply from July 10. As reported Nakanune.RU in the press service of the airline, as aircraft of the European concern Airbus with more spacious luggage racks have begun to be more actively used, this will allow passengers to carry larger bags in the cabin. And most importantly, the source noted, the weight of carried hand luggage is no longer included in the free baggage allowance.
According to the new rules, passengers now have the right to transport business/comfort class service in the aircraft cabin - two seats with a total weight of no more than 12 kg and dimensions of each no more than 55x40x20 cm, i.e. no more than 115 cm (45 inch) in the sum of three dimensions. In the economy class cabin there is one seat weighing no more than 5 kg and dimensions no more than 55x40x20 cm, i.e. no more than 115 cm (45 inch) in the sum of three dimensions.
Let us remind you that for economy class passengers the free checked baggage allowance is 20 kg, for business/comfort class passengers 30 kg, for infants under 2 years old - 10 kg of luggage and a stroller. The size of one piece of checked baggage must not exceed 50x50x100 cm.
Each passenger can additionally carry personal items in the cabin - a handbag or briefcase, a folder for papers, an umbrella, a cane, a bouquet of flowers, outerwear, a suit in a suitcase, printed publications for reading in flight, a cradle when transporting a child, baby food for a child during the flight, a cell phone, a camera, a video camera, a laptop computer, crutches, a stretcher or a wheelchair when transporting a passenger with limited mobility.
These items are not presented for weighing, are not subject to registration and are not marked with tags,” UA emphasized.

Baggage allowance
Allowable baggage weight on an airplane
The standard baggage allowance on an airplane (for non-low-cost airlines) is 20-23 kg in checked baggage and 5-7 kg in hand luggage. The weight of free baggage is always indicated on the ticket.
But the ticket won't tell you how many bags you can check in, whether hand luggage is included in the total free baggage weight, or how much hand luggage you can take on board. The table below will help you clarify all these questions.
The table contains the most popular airlines, both foreign and Russian.
The free baggage allowance in the table is indicated for mid-haul flights. If you are planning a transatlantic flight to North and South America, or a flight to Africa, check the weight of free baggage using the link to the airline's website in the last column.
If you have the status of a frequent flyer of an airline, you will be subject to increased baggage allowances - you can also view them at the link.
Increased baggage allowance is also provided to those who have purchased an economy class ticket at high open fares.
The airline websites also indicate baggage allowances for children with and without a seat.
Baggage dimensions
In addition to the weight of luggage, baggage transportation standards also indicate the dimensions of luggage.
Typically, this size should be no more than 158 cm in the sum of all measurements (length + width + thickness).
If you are checking in a regular suitcase, you don’t have to measure its dimensions - all standard suitcases can be taken in as luggage without any problems. If you are transporting non-standard cargo - sports equipment, large items, musical instruments, then carefully read the airline's baggage size standards.
Also, always carefully study the carry-on baggage allowance.
As can be seen from the table, almost all airlines in Europe have already switched to new transportation rules based on a seat system, and not on a weight system as before - see the new baggage rules for more details.
If the table does not indicate the number of seats, then the airline uses a weight system.
Almost all airline websites are presented in Russian.
If the site is in English -
checked baggage is transferred - checked baggage
hand luggage - cabin baggage (hand baggage/ carry-on)
The passenger's personal property carried on board falls into the baggage category. Airlines' policies in this regard vary. Therefore, it is appropriate for a passenger who intends to fly with a particular airline to familiarize themselves with the carrier's requirements. Let's consider the conditions for transporting luggage of the Russian holding company " Ural AL» and find out what additional payment is provided here for baggage in excess of the established norm.
Let's find out the general rules for carrying baggage. The baggage allowance is regulated by a separate section of the airline's requirements, which provides for the division of the client's belongings into hand luggage and luggage itself. The size standards for hand luggage depend on the class of flight, and determining the limit of things that will go in the luggage compartment regulates the fare plan of the airline ticket.
Let's talk about working tariffs for passengers. Today, the company's clients book seats on board using six options presented. The most affordable way to travel with this airline is the “Promo” tariff. However, airlines do not provide space in the luggage compartment for flights within the country, CIS countries and international flights. In such situations, customers only have access to paid luggage.
Tariff plans "Economy" and "Premium Economy" allow the client to use a single space in the luggage compartment. However, the luggage weight here is up to 23 kg. Exceeding this criterion requires additional funding.
When purchasing “Business Light” or “Comfort Light” air tickets, the client has the right to increase the weight of luggage to 32 kg. At the same time, the airline offers the passenger one seat in the luggage compartment. But expensive “Business” tickets require an increase to two pieces of luggage with a maximum weight of 32 kilograms. The described conditions briefly characterize the company’s policy “ Ural Airlines" Baggage whose weight does not fit within the specified limits is subject to additional payment by the passenger.
Exceptions
These standards do not apply to all flights. When traveling to Dubai from Moscow, passengers have the right to take a suitcase weighing up to 15 kg. The Moscow-Belgrade-Moscow flight assumes an increase in the norm to 32 kilograms. In addition, special rates apply for flights from the capital to Baikonur in both directions.
Here, clients with standard conditions of service take on board only up to 5 kg of hand luggage and check in a maximum of 15 kg of things as checked luggage. On the same flight, business class passengers bring up to 10 kg of personal belongings into the cabin, and here they can check in a suitcase weighing 30 kg in the luggage compartment. Similar rates apply to children 2–12 years old, depending on the class of service. But the carriage of luggage for an infant is not provided on all of the described routes.
Things in the cabin
Now let’s take a quick look at how hand luggage is transported on an airplane “ Ural Airlines" The dimensions and weight of things on board the aircraft are determined by the cabin service class. Three budget tariff plans of economy class provide free transportation of a travel bag with dimensions of 55x40x20 and a weight of 10 kilograms. These standards apply to adult passengers and children under 12 years of age.
For passengers who prefer a high-class flight, the airline offers two free seats for hand luggage. The maximum dimensions of the sides of bags remain within the economy class norm, but the weight of transported property increases to 15 kilograms.
Parents flying with infants under two years of age have the right to carry an additional 10 kilograms of luggage per child free of charge. Moreover, it does not matter for the airline whether customers check things in as luggage or take them into the cabin. Passengers will be able to transport a baby stroller free of charge.
In addition to checked luggage, travelers have the right to additionally bring on board a personal bag for daily use, baby food, small household appliances: laptop, phone, video or photo camera, clothes in briefcases. However, due to recent events, airlines are asking customers to refrain from using and charging the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphone on board, since the device is susceptible to spontaneous combustion.
Payment for excess baggage
Now let’s figure out how much baggage costs on a plane.” Ural Airlines" When purchasing a Promo class air ticket, a passenger will certainly be interested in this question. When flying within Russia, the cost of transporting a suitcase with a standard economy class weight of 23 kilograms will cost 2,000 rubles. Traveling to the CIS countries requires paying 25 euros for one place in the luggage compartment. Passengers on international flights will have to pay for such services at a rate of 50 euros.
Oversized luggage is paid by clients on a per-place basis or per excess weight basis. The cost of the second place in the luggage compartment, provided that the weight of things does not exceed 23 kg, was assessed by the airline as similar to the standards of the Promo package. The only exception here is this package itself. The company has set a tax of 150 euros for foreign air travel. Please note that this rule only applies to economy class passengers. The tariff for a occupied third place on international routes is also 150 € for all service packages.
Business class clients pay for additional seats at the rate of 2,000 rubles within Russia, 50 euros when traveling within the CIS and 150 € on international flights. However, the norm of transported luggage here has been increased to 32 kg, and the dimensions of the cargo fit into a total value of 2,030 mm.
Excess weight of luggage in the range of 23 -32 kilograms will require an additional payment of 2,000 rubles in Russia, 25 euros in the CIS countries and 100 € if the client is planning a flight abroad. Of course, such requirements apply only to economy class passengers. Exceeding the weight of baggage from 32 to 50 kilograms requires advance notification to the airlines. If the issue is resolved positively, the passenger will pay the airlines 10,000 rubles if he intends to fly within the country. Similar conditions on flights within the CIS will require an additional payment of one hundred euros. International flights will increase the fee to 150 €.
Bonuses for regular customers
Cost of baggage transportation on an airplane " Ural Airlines"changes for people who took part in the Wings airline bonus program. Here, clients who own a silver card and fly in economy class, exceeding the permissible luggage weight of up to 32 kg, do not pay the excess. For luggage weighing up to 50 kilograms, payment is expected in the amount of half the nominal value of the second piece. A similar discount is given for additional space in the luggage compartment. In addition, they offer free transportation of sports equipment.
Participants of the Wings program count on discounts when paying for additional pieces of baggage
Gold level cardholders receive a 50% discount if the weight of the luggage being transported is between 32–50 kg. A seat in economy class and excess weight of up to 32 kg allows free transportation of “extra” things or sports equipment. The surcharge for additional seats also has its nuances. Such passengers have the right to count on free transportation of property up to 23 kilograms when traveling on a budget flight. Moreover, the airline provides additional seats here at half price. And business class customers receive a 50% discount on excess seats.
Airline special requirements
Transportation of oversized items becomes a separate topic of conversation. Typically, sports equipment, specialized equipment, and entertainment equipment fall into this category. In cases where such objects fit into dimensions of up to 2 meters and 3 centimeters and do not weigh more than 32 kg, the client has the right to use standard transportation conditions.
Exceeding the established standard will require the passenger to inform the company representative in advance about such cargo and pay an additional fee for transporting the item. You can pay for airline services in any available way. It provides the possibility of cashless payments, online payments and transfer of funds through self-service terminals.
In addition, the company has the right to refuse to transport an object to the client if it falls into the category of substances hazardous to the environment. Airlines suggest that customers review the list of items that are not recommended to be taken on board. Here are water equipment for sports and entertainment, with the exception of windsurfers' boards, vehicles and their structural parts, plants weighing more than five kilograms, household appliances weighing more than 10 kg.
Transportation of non-standard cargo requires an individual agreement with the carrier and additional payment for overload
Keep in mind that the company will refuse to transport these items even for additional payment. Therefore, take into account such nuances. Prohibited substances include toxic, isotopic, explosive compounds, firearms and bladed weapons, and living plants. Transportation of such categories of luggage requires special permits and papers confirming the passenger’s legal ownership of a specific object.
As for the transportation of animals, the airline assumes that the client provides the necessary documents for the animal and adheres to the current transportation requirements. Moreover, the passenger will have to pay for the pet’s travel at excess baggage rates and notify the carrier in advance of this situation.
The information provided briefly characterizes the conditions “ Ural AL"and will help beginners get a general idea of the formation of the pricing policy of this company. However, the presented data loses relevance over time, so we invite readers to independently study the standards of this carrier that they can find.
Standards for baggage and carry-on luggage at Ural Airlines depend on the purchased air ticket fare
Today, of the six tariff plans offered by airlines, “Promo” is becoming the most budget-friendly, but does not include free baggage transportation
For flights on certain routes, baggage allowances have changed relative to standard rules.
The dimensions of hand luggage on the Ural AL aircraft are unchanged, but the weight depends on the chosen class of service
Exceeding the established standard for free transportation of items will require additional payment.
I have not yet used the services of this airline (the flight will only be in 2 weeks), but based on reviews from friends I have already formed a positive impression. I won’t say anything about service and other things for now. I will only say that the prices are not at all high, as the advertising banners tell us. planned a flight Moscow-Rostov/Rostov-Moscow. In the end I bought it for 5800. People! Twice cheaper! Without any problems with hand luggage. I hope the upcoming flight to Gelendzhik will take place without sad precedents.

Good day!
Yesterday we arrived on vacation with Pobeda Airlines, but our luggage did not. In the best case, when he is found and delivered from Vnukovo, I will have to go to the airport at my own expense to pick him up. Can I re-invoice them and how do I do this?
Thank you in advance!
Sincerely, Daria There was a baggage system failure in Vnukovo, which affected several flights of different airlines. It is planned that the luggage will be delivered today or tomorrow.
The airline, under the contract, delivers luggage and passengers from point A to point B, accordingly, having delivered the luggage to point B, it will fulfill its obligations, and compensation in this case is hardly possible.
Transporting your luggage outside the contract of carriage is the responsibility of the passenger.
The airline will most likely also refuse compensation provided for in Article 120 of the Air Code (delayed delivery, 25 rubles per hour of delay), citing circumstances beyond the control of the carrier.

Surely, you have already experienced the feeling when you feel that the long-awaited vacation is approaching, and with it the day of the trip, and it is no longer possible to keep any other thoughts in your head.
Your gaze is increasingly drawn to an empty suitcase that has been gathering dust in the closet for months, waiting for its time to fill it with stylish summer clothes and bright swimsuits.
But when packing for a long trip, don’t get too carried away and remember that there are certain rules for carrying luggage on an airplane. It is possible that this is your first flight, in which case you need to carefully read these conditions to avoid any problems.
Airplane baggage weight
When packing things into suitcases, do not forget that in Russia, just like in other countries, there are certain restrictions on the volume and weight of luggage.
If you are an economy class passenger, then the weight of your luggage should not exceed 20 kg; when flying in business class, the maximum weight is 30 kg; 40 kg of luggage can be taken on a first class plane.
As a rule, this norm includes the weight of both luggage and hand luggage. But there are companies that do not accommodate the weight of hand luggage within the established limits. When purchasing a ticket for any airline, you must check the baggage weight restrictions of that particular company. There are also limits on the size of luggage: in business class the length of all 3 dimensions in total should not exceed 203 cm, in economy class it should not exceed 158 cm.
Baggage on the plane: surcharge for exceeding the limit
Additional payment for exceeding the norm
There are situations when the weight or size of luggage turns out to be more than permitted, and the additional payment for the extra centimeters and kilograms corresponds to the airline’s tariffs.
General rules for transporting baggage to airplane provide for payment of 1-2% of the price of a one-way flight in economy class for each extra kilogram.
It is highly advisable to find a solution to the problem of excess baggage in advance.
The hand luggage of each passenger, which he takes with him into the cabin, must weigh no more than 5 kg. The maximum total sum of all three dimensions of hand luggage is 115 cm. This means that your bag that you plan to take on board with you can be 55x40x20 cm in size, and it can be placed under the seat or on the shelf above. The established carry-on baggage weight limits do not include flowers, a small handbag, an umbrella, a scarf, a blanket or small blanket, a raincoat or coat, a book and magazine, a camera, a laptop, binoculars and some food supplies.
What items are prohibited from being carried in luggage?

What is prohibited from being carried in hand luggage
There are also items that cannot be placed in hand luggage. So if you don’t want to be mistaken for terrorists, then do not take jars of liquids and sprays with a capacity of more than 100 ml in your hand luggage. By the way, if you do not want your manicure kit and even an ordinary nail file to be confiscated during the inspection, then all sharp and piercing things should be in the suitcase. In Russia, as in other European countries, there is a law that liquids can be carried in hand luggage if they are in containers with a volume of no more than 100 ml. By the way, even completely non-liquid substances are often considered liquid, including toothpaste, perfumes and deodorants, mascara, gels, foams, lotions and creams, oils. You can find out more about the rules for carrying hand luggage in the special article Rules for carrying hand luggage.
Special cases of baggage transportation
The rules for transporting liquids on planes are also quite strict. If there is an urgent need to transport liquids in hand luggage, then pour your cosmetics into 100 ml bottles. All these jars must be in a plastic bag. By the way, it is important that the volume of all containers taken together cannot be more than a liter per person. If the volume exceeds the specified norm, then the excess liquids will have to be placed in the suitcase.
There are some things that are not considered baggage, for which you do not have to pay. Musical instruments will require a special ticket and will be carried in the cabin during the flight. You also have to pay for the animal as if it were an excess.
If you take expensive items with you in your luggage, you can declare their value. But the value of the luggage that you named cannot be more than its real value. But you will need to pay extra for this. The fee is 10 percent of the declared value of the luggage. The wheelchair will need to be checked in free of charge.
For heavy and bulky luggage, you can purchase a separate ticket and transport it in a separate seat. If your baggage weighs more than 75 kg, then you will be required to buy 2 or more (depending on the weight of the baggage as a whole) tickets.
It often happens that airlines print baggage conditions on the covers of their tickets, so be sure to read them, because these rules can vary greatly from company to company. Well, if you have read the rules, but want to ask or clarify something else, then contact the airline agent or the transporter.
The airline " " intends to change the baggage and hand luggage allowances. The new standards look quite strange and atypical. The innovations will apply to tickets sold from November 20, reports the correspondent. website.
The main changes concern the cheapest Promo tariffs. Currently, passengers with such tickets can carry only 10 kilograms of hand luggage free of charge (plus a briefcase or handbag, a briefcase, printed publications, a photo and video camera, a bouquet of flowers and other items from the list of personal items in the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR)). For tickets sold from November 20, there is a strange free allowance - 5 kilograms in hand luggage (plus the above personal items) and 10 kilograms in checked baggage. In addition, the hand luggage allowance has been reduced from 10 to 5 kilograms for all economy class fares, and not just for Promo fares.
The new norm, firstly, will upset passengers who are accustomed to taking these 10 kilograms with them into the aircraft cabin (for example, in the form of a small backpack or a small wheeled bag). Secondly, it does not fully correspond to the FAP, which stipulate only 10 free kilograms, but at the same time actually giving the passenger a choice - whether to check them in as checked baggage or take them into the cabin as hand luggage. It is likely that one of the motives for the innovations was a lawsuit against another airline, in which the court concluded that the passenger has the right to make such a choice.
In any case, there are serious doubts that Ural Airlines will carefully check the weight of every bag that passengers carry into the cabin. In any case, when relatively recently many companies, including Ural Airlines, had a formal norm of 5 kilograms preserved from Soviet times, no one controlled the actual weight of hand luggage.
For passengers wishing to carry more than 5 kilograms into the cabin and not checking luggage, it makes sense to use online check-in or self-check-in kiosks to avoid attempts to weigh carry-on luggage at regular airport check-in counters. The likelihood of hand luggage being weighed at the gate is currently negligible. In addition, the company has not published any algorithm of actions in case of attempts to bring more than 5 kilograms into the cabin, which most likely indicates that there is simply no weight control at the gate.
If all this is really true, then the innovations as a whole can be considered favorable for passengers with the cheapest Promo tickets. They will be able to check in 10 kilograms of luggage and at the same time retain the ability to carry a significant amount of hand luggage (plus personal items from the above list). For passengers of the more expensive "Economy" and "Premium Economy" fares, the innovations are rather negative - now, when checking in their luggage, they risk being faced with an attempt by check-in counter staff to limit their hand luggage to 5 kilograms instead of the previous 10. However, in most cases this is quite easy to get around with using the above list of personal items that, according to the FAP, are not subject to weighing or marking and are not taken into account when calculating carry-on baggage allowances.
The baggage allowance for Economy and Premium Economy passengers has been kept at the level of one piece of 23 kilograms. Carrying an additional piece of baggage for all fares still costs 2,000 rubles on domestic routes and 35-40 euros on international routes for each flight segment, that is, for connecting flights the fee must be doubled. Free transportation of sports equipment is available only on Economy and Premium Economy fares.
It is not yet entirely clear whether the price ratio of the Promo and Economy tariffs themselves will change from November 20. Now in most cases the difference between them is much less than the cost of later adding luggage, although it varies greatly from route to route. In other words, it is better to know when purchasing a ticket whether you will need to carry luggage or not.
When planning a trip, it is important to understand how much hand luggage and baggage a passenger can take on the plane for free. Avianiti will briefly tell you the basic requirements of the airline "" for the number, weight and size of hand luggage and baggage included in air tickets, and what to do if there is excess baggage.
