Baggage essentials

Hand baggage

You are entitled to carry two items of hand baggage, each weighing up to 6 kg. One can be a laptop or a handbag.

For safety reasons and to ensure your comfort in the cabin, it may be necessary to place hand baggage in the aircraft hold. In this case your hand baggage will be tagged with a valet tag and handed back to you immediately after arrival at the aircraft steps when you disembark the aircraft. Hand baggage with wheels will always be placed in the aircraft hold.

Please ensure you remove fragile and items from hand baggage placed in the hold, including computer equipment, cash, keys, passport and medicine.
