Checked Baggage and Carry-on Baggage

All passenger baggage, including carry-on baggage, must be presented at flight check-in for security reasons.

Dear Customers: please note that the free baggage allowance depends on the aircraft type, the flight route, and service class.

Passenger baggage accepted by the Airline for transportation while accepting responsibility for its safety, is marked with a baggage tag, and transported in the baggage hold of the aircraft, and is called checked baggage.

We recommend that you attach a name tag to each piece of baggage, specifying your last name, flight number, date, and telephone number.

The checked baggage allowance is limited depending on the fare paid by the passenger for the ticket, passenger category, destination, group status, or travel class.

There are two systems for measuring the checked baggage allowance:

  • by weight: determined by the total weight of checked baggage;
  • by number of pieces ("Piece Concept"): determined by the total number of checked baggage pieces.
