Sporting equipment and musical instruments can be part of your free baggage allowance if they are within our Standard Special Baggage specifications. Extra charges will be applied if dimensions and/or total weight exceed the size specifications or the free baggage allowance.
We encourage early check-in if your item requires special handling or charges. This will allow you to plan your journey ahead, and avoid hassles at the check-in counters.
Please carry your special equipment in a rigid protective case, whether it is travelling in the cabin or in the hold and ensure properly insured. Instruments in soft cases cannot be accepted.
