4 things to check before purchasing
Itinerary: Purchase deadlines and baggage conditions may differ between domestic and international flights.
Weight: Check the weight of each individual piece rather than just the total baggage amount.
Dimensions: Checked baggage must meet applicable size limits; standard pieces on the main website are currently defined as having a total sum of three dimensions not exceeding 158 cm.
Timing: The extra baggage service has different deadlines depending on the itinerary, so do not wait until close to departure time to check.
How is extra baggage different from excess baggage?
These are two easily confused concepts:
Extra baggage is the amount of baggage that a passenger proactively adds before the flight, in addition to the ticket's free allowance.
Excess baggage occurs when the actual baggage exceeds the standard or applicable baggage conditions and is processed according to the relevant regulations.
Understanding the difference helps you choose the right service before arriving at the airport.
