Cabin baggage

  • One hand bag up to 7 kg, including your laptop. Additional hand baggage is not allowed.
  • Maximum size: length 38 cm, breadth 15 cm, height 40 cm.
  • Cabin bags go on board only if there is room in the overhead locker or beneath your seat. A bag that is too big or too heavy can be sent to the hold before departure; it gets a tag and comes out on the belt, and you pay the going per-kg excess rate if it is above the weight limit.
  • When a cabin bag is weighed at the boarding gate and found too heavy, the excess cabin-bag rate from the airline's terms is charged.
  • Liquids: containers of 100 ml or less, all fitting in one transparent, re-sealable 1-litre bag.
