Checked baggage allowance
Your checked baggage allowance depends on the fare you selected at the time of booking:
| Economy – No Bag | Economy Bag | Premium |
|---|---|---|
| No checked baggage | 1 x 23 kg checked bag | 2 x 23 kg checked bags plus 1 x 23 kg special or sporting equipment |
Adding additional checked baggage
You can purchase additional checked baggage in two ways:
1. During the booking process
You can add extra checked baggage on the Extras page before completing your booking. Bags are charged per flight, so if you are booking a return trip you can choose to add bags to one or both flights.

Heavy bags
Bags weighing over 23 kg but less than 32 kg are considered heavy bags. A R200 heavy bag fee will apply at the airport. Bags weighing more than 32 kg cannot be accepted for check-in due to Health and Safety regulations. They must be sent via cargo at your own expense.
