Search for cheap flights
Each airline applies restrictions on carrying cargo on an aircraft. These standards are presented on the websites of air carriers, and when booking a ticket, be sure to familiarize yourself with them. Otherwise, if you take excess baggage with you, you will have to pay for it in accordance with the proposed rates. In S7 airlines, baggage allowances and rules for its carriage do not differ much from the fares of other Russian air carriers.
Baggage parameters
Important! It is necessary to distinguish between checked-in suitcases and items that you will take with you into the cabin. They have different restrictions.
All baggage parameters are divided into three categories:
- Number of places. Each suitcase or bag carried is considered one piece. If their number is more than one, a surcharge is assigned.
- Weight. For S7 baggage, as with other companies, if the suitcase is overweight, you will have to pay at the established rate. This also applies if your bag exceeds the free baggage allowance.
- Dimensions. Checked baggage items, when summing up their length, height and width, must fit into 203 cm. You can take a bag into the cabin that does not exceed 55x40x20 cm.
To check compliance hand luggage permitted standards, special restrictive cells are located near the check-in counters.
Cost and different rates
Three years ago, S7 introduced a tariff system, according to which you can choose the option that suits you. Each of them provides for restrictions on baggage transportation:
- Economy Basic. Registered cargo is paid separately. Its maximum weight is 23 kg. It is allowed to take an object weighing up to 10 kg into the cabin.
- Economy Flexible. One piece of baggage weighing up to 23 kg is allowed free of charge.
- Business Basic. Hand luggage - up to 15 kg, suitcase for the luggage compartment - up to 32 kg.
- Business Flexible. Two suitcases weighing up to 32 kg each are allowed, a bag weighing up to 15 kg can be taken into the cabin.
If you buy a ticket at the Economy Basic fare at S7, then the baggage allowance will be at least 2,500 rubles. Depending on the flight zone, it may be more, but this amount is charged at the airport. And when applying online travel document and at the same time luggage space you will receive a 28% discount. Thus, the price is reduced to 1800 rubles.
By purchasing a ticket from S7, you can also buy the extra baggage service. This is a new savings offer. How much a possible surcharge for excess baggage directly at the airport costs is determined by S7 rules. It depends on the flights or destinations served by S7, if excess baggage is allowed on the company's aircraft.
Skiers are allowed to carry snowboards, skis and equipment free of charge, but with a weight limit. According to S7 Economy fares - up to 23 kg, Business - up to 32 kg, the cost of excess baggage is determined in the general manner. The dimensions of the sports cargo are not limited.

The Extra Baggage Allowance service will help you book extra kilos in advance. With it, you can buy one or two extra pieces or pay for excess weight of a free suitcase (up to 32 kg).
S7 airlines have set the cost of the additional baggage allowance in accordance with the time of application.
The cost of an extra piece of baggage on an S7 aircraft is calculated using a special formula based on the tariffs for exceeding the standards adopted for certain destinations.
The cost of the service is determined by a discount that will affect the price of additional baggage on S7 aircraft:
- Purchasing the service at the time of booking - 20% discount when calculating the excess freight surcharge.
- Purchase when booking online 4 hours before the departure of the aircraft - 10% discount.
Important! For non-standard cargo over 32 kg, exceeding the permitted dimensions, with more than two additional pieces, the service does not apply.
When you pay extra for additional suitcases under this service, and then cancel the flight or the flight is canceled, the money must be returned.
Transportation of animals
Animals are transported in S7 as a paid excess cargo, which means that you have to pay extra for their transportation, even if you are entitled to a free piece of hand luggage or checked cargo.
You can arrange transportation directly at the airport. Not later than 48 hours before departure, you must notify the Contact Center that you will be flying with an animal.
Where the animal will travel depends on its weight. S7 only allows pets in the cabin: dogs, cats, birds. Each animal in the cabin up to 8 kg must be in a cage or container made of plastic, which must provide it with air access and a free position. The same requirements apply to the animal container when transported in the luggage compartment. The dimensions of the cage for hand luggage must be no more than 115 cm in total. The weight is determined by the total: animal + cage.
Pets that do not meet these parameters are transported in the luggage compartment.
Two individuals can be transported in one container when their weight is up to 14 kg and they are capable of peaceful behavior towards each other. Otherwise, if you exceed the weight in the luggage compartment, you can place a cage with one animal.
Important! Animals in the baggage compartment weighing more than 32 kg are often not allowed on international flights, except for flights to the CIS countries. On domestic flights - upon agreement with the Contact Center and only if there are available seats in the luggage compartment.

For the transportation of animals, in addition to the surcharge, you will need veterinary documents certifying the state of health of the animal.
What else to consider
If you are flying with S7 at the Economy Basic fare, then the baggage surcharge will offset the benefit of the reduced ticket price. The best option is to fly without a checked-in suitcase, only with hand luggage.
S7 does not allow excess hand luggage to be taken into the cabin, it must be placed in baggage, and the additional payment is made in accordance with the general rules.
Hand luggage, in addition to the bag or item established by the regulations, includes:
- outerwear;
- flower bouquets;
- duty-free goods (up to 3 kg, total dimensions 75 cm).
If the cargo exceeds 203 cm and 32 kg, only S7 can decide on its delivery. The defining moments in this case are the size of the luggage compartment and the degree of its occupancy. If you are carrying such a cargo, be sure to call the Contact Center in advance.
By strictly following the rules and being guided by the variety of tariffs, you will be able to carry the necessary cargo with minimal costs and without unpleasant surprises before departure.
How many suitcases can you take with you when traveling by plane? On s7, the number of pieces of luggage, its dimensions and, of course, weight are taken into account.
For status members S7 Priority program, holders of Silver (Ruby), Gold (Sapphire), Platinum (Emerald) cards are provided with privileges - free transportation of additional suitcases and travel bags.
S7: Free baggage allowance
Remember the parameters that determine the free baggage allowance;
- Number of places (1 place - 1 bag, box)
- Weight of bags or boxes carried
- Size: for checked baggage, the sum of three dimensions (length-height-width) is not more than 203 cm.
The dimensions of your luggage on the s7, for which you do not have to pay, are no more than 203 cm in the sum of three dimensions.

Extra baggage
To take "extra" suitcases, bags, boxes on a trip, buy the "Additional baggage allowance" service from s7 at a discount.
The amount of the discount may vary depending on how long before the flight you buy this service. The more time left before the flight, the cheaper the additional baggage. The most profitable is to buy it more than 30 hours before departure.
If you buy the service during the online booking of air tickets or add it in the "My Bookings" section on the website, then the discount will be 20%.
If you buy the service during online check-in for a flight 30-4 hours before departure, then the discount is 10%. If there are 4 hours left before departure, there will be no discount.
Sport equipment
In addition to luggage, one passenger can carry 1 set of ski or snowboard equipment free of charge. The set must consist of 1 pair skiing with ski poles or snowboard and additional equipment (boots, helmets, goggles) with a total mass of:
- no more than 23 kg (size restrictions set for checked baggage do not apply) for economy class fares

Alpine skis, snowboards, additional equipment can be packed in a common bag or in 1 bag and 1 piece of luggage.
Remember: on flights operated by s7 partners, different rules for transporting ski equipment may apply. Check them on the website of the flight operator.
Oversized and heavy baggage
Oversized baggage includes baggage that is more than 203 cm in total dimensions, heavy baggage - baggage weighing more than 30 kg. The decision to transport such things is made by the airline in each individual case - it depends on the type of aircraft and the capacity of the luggage compartment. Heavy and oversized baggage s7 asks to pay extra during check-in for the flight.
For European airports, there is a weight limit for one piece of baggage - no more than 32 kg. If the baggage exceeds this limit, cargo transportation is issued according to the rules of the carrier airline.
Before the flight, send a request through the feedback form on the website about the possibility of transporting your luggage. Or call the s7 contact center by phone (free in Russia). You can make a call from the site: the "Call online" link is located at the bottom of the screen.
Can I check in luggage online?
No, you can only check it out at the airport - at special "Baggage Reception" counters or at regular counters.
Can I combine the luggage of an adult passenger and a child?
If you are flying with a child to the same destination, you can combine the free baggage allowance. Merging is possible for an adult passenger and a child under 12 years of age, even if they are booked in different bookings with different last names. The weight of each piece of baggage must not exceed 30 kg.
Transportation of weapons and ammunition
You can carry weapons and ammunition if you have a permit for the right to keep and carry weapons. In the case of international transportation, in addition to this, at the customs office of the airport of departure, it is necessary to provide permission from the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation for the right to export weapons and ammunition from the Russian Federation (or import into the country).
Without a permit for the right to store and carry weapons, passengers cannot carry firearms, gas and edged weapons of all types during the flight.
Prior to check-in for your flight, you will need to issue a weapon and fill out the relevant documents. Therefore, we recommend arriving at the airport in advance, no later than two hours before the departure of the aircraft. On S7 flights, the weight of permitted weapons is included in the free baggage allowance.

Greetings to all those who have looked.
I'm starting my long story about S7 airlines, get in a comfortable position and get ready for a long journey.
Over the past few years, I have periodically made flights on airplanes to different cities of Russia with different airlines. Siberia Airlines flew many times and each time the flight turned out to be interesting.
Siberia Airlines has been on the air transportation market for a long time.
Year of foundation S7 Airlines: 1957.
The company's fleet has more than 70 aircraft, most often Airbus, less often Boeing. The airline performs both domestic and international flights. S7 is based at 2 airports: Tolmachevo (Novosibirsk) and Domodedovo (Moscow).
The planes of this airline are easy to recognize, they are green. The planes are clean and tidy. I didn't see broken chairs.
The airline staff is quite polite and smiling. Despite multiple flights, I did not observe conflict situations on board the ship. All flights were soft and smooth, without rumble and shaking.
Buying and Refunding Tickets
You can buy tickets both at the ticket office and on the Internet. Refunding a ticket depends on the fare you chose when purchasing (either impossible or with a loss of money).
Application S7
By installing this application on your smartphone, you can control your bonus account, buy and book a ticket, check in for a flight, watch the departure board, etc.
check-in
You can check in for a flight on the airline's website 30 hours before departure, in the S7 app or at the airport.
When buying a ticket with a cheap fare, a free seat selection on the plane is not possible. EXCEPTION: passengers with children. Children under 12 are given certain seats in the cabin, so already when buying a ticket, you will be assigned a seat.
Carriage of luggage
There are a couple of nuances in transporting luggage with this airline. The baggage allowance for 1 adult passenger is 23 kg + hand luggage 7 kg. A few years ago, my wife and I flew from Novosibirsk with one suitcase, which weighed a little more than 23 kg. The airline employee at the check-in desk offered 2 options for transportation: put the excess in the second bag (for each passenger according to the luggage) or pay for the excess. Previously, we didn’t have such problems with other airlines, one baggage was taken into account for two passengers and we didn’t have to pay for overweight. We were not ready for such a turn of events, we did not have a spare bag in our pockets and we were forced to pay for the excess. Now at home, before flying with the S7, the weight of the luggage is checked to the gram.
Transportation of a baby stroller
This service is provided by the airline free of charge, even if you split the stroller into 2 blocks. When checking in your baggage, you can check in the stroller right away and walk around the airport with your baby in your arms, or you can check it in as baggage at the airstairs. It is possible to get a stroller both at the gangway and together with the main luggage. Our stroller, weighing 13 kg, was divided into 2 blocks before the flights and was always transported free of charge. At check-in, the stroller is weighed and checked in as oversized baggage at a separate check-in desk.
Meals on board
I have a couple of complaints about food to the airline. Once, after dinner on board a ship, I got badly poisoned. The second incident occurred not so long ago, for breakfast was offered chicken and potatoes, in which there was quite a lot of ginger. Ginger is such a product, the presence of which in food should be warned in advance.
The food portions are good, the dishes are hearty. Even on short-haul flights, a light sandwich lunch was provided (although another airline on the same route had no snacks at all and only drinks were served).
Tea and coffee are relatively good quality. Always offered lemon and milk for drinks. From soft drinks: drinking water with and without gas, 3 types of juice, sometimes Pepsi and similar sodas. The number of soft drinks is not limited, you can order both water and juice at the same time. After the main meal, the staff re-offers hot drinks.
For a fee, you can pre-order individual meals, baby food.
The airline uses good quality disposable tableware, so you won't get poorly washed mugs.
Flying with a child
A child under 2 years old is transported free of charge without providing an extra seat. The cradle is not provided, the child spends the entire flight in the arms of the parent. A seat for the child is assigned automatically, as this seat must be equipped with an additional oxygen mask. A child under 2 years old is entitled to free baggage allowance up to 10 kg + free carriage of a stroller.
On the plane, the child is fastened with an additional seat belt to the parent's belt.
The airline makes gifts for children. On one flight we were presented with a bib and wet wipes, and on the second flight we did not get a gift. The neighbors were presented with a bag containing pencils and a notebook with assignments.
Young children travel best when they are breastfed.
Ways to save money with S7
1. Participate in the loyalty program. This program is beneficial for frequent flyers. For flights are charged bonus miles, which can later be exchanged for a ticket, but in this case you still have to pay for the fees. The number of miles can be increased during online check-in for a flight (for online registration earn 50 bonus miles) using a joint bank card(S7-Tinkoff, Alfa-Bank, Promsvyazbank, Bank of Moscow), using the services of partner companies (hotels, car rental, insurance, online stores, etc.).
In more detail, I would like to dwell on the accrual of bonus miles when shopping in online stores. The list of online stores is quite wide, among them: Lamoda, Aliexpress, Daughters and sons, M video, iHerb, Sportmaster, Obbi, etc. In order to receive bonus miles, you need to go to the S7 airline website --> to the S7 Priority section --> program partners --> online stores --> to the desired store to make a purchase.
You can also transfer the missing miles to your friend, family member. The minimum transfer is 500 miles. The cost of translation is 375 rubles.
From time to time, the airline has Special offers for accrual of additional miles on certain destinations.
3. Probably each of us paid attention to how much food costs at the airport. I have always been interested in the question - where does the airport staff eat, which receives an average salary. At Domodedovo Airport, on the territory of the parking lot, there is the S7 building, which houses a canteen for employees with free entrance for other visitors.
Dining room address: Domodedovo building 6/1.
The dining room is clean, comfortable, there are many visitors in it, there is enough space for everyone. For 150 rubles, in 2018, I bought a full meal, consisting of chicken soup with noodles, rice with chicken cutlet and compote. The portions are big, the food is delicious. The dining room has a fairly large assortment of dishes, cash and cashless payments are possible.
Canteen opening hours:
From 6.00 to 23.00.
Breaks: 10.45-11.15, 16.00-17.00
Menu pricing example:
Buckwheat 150 grams - 35 rubles
Chicken cutlet 100 grams - 75 rubles
Bread - 3 rubles per 1 piece
Morse 200 ml - 25 rubles
This is where the journey ends. Thank you for stopping by.
When planning a flight, the first thing a passenger should be familiar with is the baggage allowance of S7 Airlines. The success of boarding the aircraft and the presence of additional costs depend on the knowledge of these rules. There are many cases when, due to ignorance of the basic requirements of the carrier, the passenger was forced to pay for additional baggage or was refused by the carrier to provide services.
Carry-on baggage allowance at S7 Airlines
According to the rules of the airline, each client has the opportunity to take on board a certain amount of things. But here there are limits that depend on the previously selected tariff.
Today hand luggage allowance for S7 Airlines:
- In Economy tariffs Flexible and Basic it is allowed to take up to 10 kg of things with you on the plane (1 piece). At the same time, the dimensions of the cargo should not exceed the established norms, namely 115 cm when summing up the data of 3 measurements (55 * 40 * 20 cm).
- Tariffs Business Basic and Flexible provide great opportunities for passengers. Here, the baggage allowance on board S7 Airlines allows you to take up to 15 kg of cargo with you and take two places. At the same time, the requirements for dimensions remain unchanged.
For flights to the UK or the US, it is not allowed to carry any electronic devices in hand luggage.
Check-in of hand luggage is carried out only at the airport. It is here that the baggage allowance for business and economy class is checked. To go through the mentioned procedures, it is worth contacting a special or conventional rack. On board you can carry things that may be needed during the flight - a laptop, a baby carriage, a camera, a cane, an umbrella, a briefcase, a handbag and others.
S7 Airlines baggage allowance
If the cargo cannot be carried on board, it is transported in a special compartment and registered according to the standard procedure.
Checked baggage allowance at S7 Airlines:

- For Business Basic plan increases allowable weight(up to 32 kg), and only one place is allocated for luggage.
- For Business Flexible plan the same weight restrictions apply. The difference lies in the possibility of occupying two places.
In all cases, the free baggage allowance at S7 Airlines has a size limit of 203 cm. As in the case of hand luggage, three measurements are summed up.
What else can you take on board?
In addition to the basic baggage, the passenger is allowed to take with him a set of ski equipment, as well as equipment, the total weight of which should not exceed 23 kg for economy class. The allowance for carrying such baggage on an airplane for a business class is higher - up to 32 kg. At the same time, skis and a snowboard must be packed. If the weight exceeds the allowable limit, the cargo is classified as oversized.
Special conditions
It should be noted that S7 Priority members can count on Better conditions. So, for the status of Silver Ruby, one additional place is provided weighing up to 23 kg, Gold Sapphire has similar conditions, and for Platinum Emerald - also 1 place, but with a limit of up to 32 kg.
Special attention should be paid to the designations on the ticket. Thus, the baggage allowance of 1 RS of S7 Airlines means a restriction for an economy class passenger, and 2 RS for a business class. These symbols can be used to guide you regarding baggage requirements.
What are the rules for carrying liquids in hand luggage?
The carrier claims that containers up to 100 ml can be taken into the cabin, and the total volume of liquids should not exceed a liter. This rule applies to all drinks, as well as perfumes. An exception is made only for baby food or medicines, without which a person cannot do without on board. For them, the rules for carrying liquids in S7 Airlines hand luggage are less severe.
What will be the violation of the rules?
If the baggage allowance of S7 Airlines, as well as hand luggage, is violated, you will have to make an additional payment at S7 Airlines tariffs. The payment amount is shown below. In the first case, for Russia (the amounts are indicated in rubles), and in the second - for international flights to Europe (prices are indicated in euros). If you choose to fly
S7 Airlines (in the recent past - Siberia Airlines) is one of the leading air carriers in our country. If you purchased an S7 flight ticket, you should familiarize yourself with the baggage allowance in advance so that there are no misunderstandings during check-in.

A Premium status card entitles you to carry an additional piece of baggage up to 32 kg.
All baggage items are issued for each passenger individually. The rules of the airline allow you to combine free baggage allowance for several passengers at the same time in a situation where they fly to the same point together. However, it is necessary to document this fact, that is, to provide air tickets and passports.
Payment for excess baggage
If the passenger's baggage exceeds the established free baggage allowance in terms of weight and quantitative parameters, an additional payment must be made.
S7 Airlines has set the following rates for excess baggage:
- An additional second piece of baggage with a mass not exceeding 23 kg and less than 2.03 m in three dimensions - 50 euros.
- Additional third and next piece of baggage, not exceeding 23 kg and 2.03 in three dimensions - 150 euros.
- Exceeding the weight of baggage in the range of 23-32 kg with total dimensions of not more than 2.03 m - 50 euros.
- Exceeding the weight of baggage from 32 kg, while the sum of the dimensions is less than 2.03 m - 100 euros.
- Exceeding the established baggage dimensions (more than 2.03 m) - 150 euros.
If the weight of a piece of baggage is in the range of 32-50 kg, its transportation must be coordinated with the airline in a timely manner. Whether such heavy baggage will be accepted for transportation or not is directly related to the type of airliner declared for the flight and the dimensions of the luggage compartment. Before the planned trip, you need to send a corresponding request to the airline through the "Feedback" section on the website or call the call center.
Each air carrier, including S7, has its own baggage allowance and excess baggage rates. Clarification of these rules should be done in a timely manner a few days before the planned trip, and even better - when buying a ticket, in order to avoid unpleasant situations when checking in at the airport of departure and unplanned expenses.
