When planning a flight to another country or within Russia, the first thing you need to pay attention to is the baggage conditions.

Rules for the carriage of hand luggage

The conditions for transporting items by S7 differ depending on the tariff to which the purchased ticket belongs. Any passenger can take hand luggage into the aircraft cabin in accordance with the dimensions established by the airline.

People flying on the Economy fare, regardless of the Basic or Flexible subtype, can take hand luggage weighing up to 10 kilograms, measuring no more than 55x40x20 (length-width-height) centimeters.

The weight of luggage carried for tourists flying at the Business Basic or Flexible fare increases to 15 kilograms, a size comparable to economy class tickets.

If you violate the rules prescribed by S7, an additional fee will be charged. The amount of money you have to pay depends on the size and class of the ticket purchased. S7 baggage and baggage cannot be checked in online. This can only be done at the airport at the baggage claim counters.

If the vehicle for transporting a child is larger than the specified dimensions, they can be carried free of charge in addition to the passenger’s hand luggage, or in excess of the baggage allowance. Transporting a stroller without a child follows the general rules.

All fares except Economy Basic include free baggage allowance. The additional payment for this tariff will be 2500 rubles. If you order a ticket online on the airline’s website and pay for luggage at the same time, the company will provide a 28% discount, the total cost of the surcharge will be 1,800 rubles. It will be more profitable to buy a “Flexible” type of ticket, which provides free transportation of 1 piece of luggage.

If the terms of transportation are violated, you will have to pay extra in excess of the amount. The main thing is that the luggage does not exceed dimensions of 203 cm in three dimensions and weight from 23 to 32 kg. The payment amount for one unit will be 2,500 rubles for a direct flight. For a flight with transfers, you will have to pay 5,000 rubles. If the weight varies between 32 and 50 kg, the additional payment will be 5,000 rubles. for a regular flight and 10,000 rubles. during transfer shipment.

You should familiarize yourself in advance with the list of goods prohibited for transportation in the country of your planned flight. For example, electrical devices cannot be carried in hand luggage to the UK and USA.

Excessive freight costs

If a passenger needs luggage space in excess of the specified amount, he will have to pay 2,500 rubles. for one or two seats, depending on the tariff. The payment for the third piece of luggage will be 7,500 rubles; for a flight with connections or a transfer flight, the additional payment will be 15,000 rubles.

We recommend contacting the S7 airline contact center to find out the exact cost of excess baggage. It is more profitable to order additional space for bags at least 30 - 35 hours before departure. The sooner you do this, the less you will have to pay.

Benefits for S7 Priority members

S7 Priority is a bonus program that allows you to accumulate miles for flights, car rentals, hotels and purchases using partner bank cards. These include S7-Tinkoff debit and critical cards. The accumulated miles can be used to purchase air tickets, upgrades and purchase free tickets for one of 14 partner airlines.

Transportation of ski equipment

The S7 company allows the carriage of one set of ski and snowboard equipment free of charge. Any complete set of equipment will do, for example: a pair of skis with poles or a snowboard with special clothing.

If the flight is connected to another airline, you will need to study their rules for transporting sports equipment. Additional charges may apply.

Rules for other sports equipment

Carriage of other sports equipment can be included free of charge in addition to the baggage allowance specified on the ticket. This applies to the S7 “Enonom Flexible” and “Business” tariff, the main thing is that the dimensions of the equipment comply with the rules for weight and dimensions.

What to do if your luggage is damaged

Immediately after receipt, carefully inspect suitcases and boxes for defects without leaving the special area. If damage is found, contact special personnel, providing your boarding pass and baggage tag. You will be asked to draw up a damage report and write a statement. Based on the information received, a decision will be made on compensation for damage and its amount.

Carrying things on an airplane is a process that is regulated by various rules. Moreover, each airline has its own rules. Therefore, passengers find out all the details in advance, for example, how hand luggage is transported on the S7 plane. Dimensions and weight must fit into established standards, otherwise excess items will have to be packed in luggage.

Carry-on luggage is considered to be the items that a tourist takes with him into the cabin of an aircraft. Usually these are things that he will need during the flight, and especially important, fragile items are also taken into the cabin for safety.

Requirements for hand luggage on the s7 plane

Of course, the S7 company has certain restrictions on the weight and measurements of hand luggage. Compliance with the rules for carrying hand luggage ensures the comfort and safety of passengers.

Economy class tourists can carry one bag weighing no more than ten kg in the cabin. The dimensions of hand luggage on an S7 aircraft must not exceed 55 cm in length, 40 cm in height and 20 cm in width.

Allowed S7 hand luggage for business class passengers is two bags weighing no more than 15 kg in total. In terms of dimensions, the parameters are the same as in the economy tariff - no more than 55x40x20 is allowed.

There are places to check hand luggage in the tourist registration area. Bags must be framed according to regulations for sizing and weighing. It is recommended to find out the weight and dimensions in advance to avoid troubles before the flight.

Prohibited and permitted items for carriage in hand luggage in S7

In accordance with the established requirements for hand luggage, you can additionally (in addition to the main bag) take the following things with you:

Mobile, camera, laptop, tablet, video camera;
Outerwear, a suit in a special travel bag - a briefcase;
Handbag, briefcase;
A folder for securities, as well as a cane, an umbrella, a bouquet of flowers;
Tourists flying with children can take baby food and a baby stroller for minors under 11 years old into the cabin, and when flying with children under 2 years old, they can carry a cradle or car seat in the cabin. Naturally, all these things are allowed to be taken only when flying with a child;
People with limited mobility may bring crutches or a collapsible wheelchair into the cabin, as long as they can be comfortably placed on the shelf above or under the seat of the passenger in front.

All listed items, except for baby strollers and wheelchairs, are not subject to weighing when checking in hand luggage and baggage. Thus, a citizen has the right to take into the cabin hand luggage that meets the established dimensions and does not exceed the weight, as well as several or all of the specified items on the list.

Cost of hand luggage in S7

Carriage of luggage in S7 is free for any category of citizens if the items fit the established standards in size and dimensions. However, there is no such thing as overweight for things in the aircraft cabin. Anything that weighs more or exceeds the dimensions will have to be packed in a luggage bag, and the luggage itself can be either free or paid if it does not fit into the standards.

Many passengers are interested in whether it is possible to check out hand luggage with luggage on the official S7 website? Unfortunately, such a service is not provided, since it is impossible to determine remotely whether the transported items comply with the established standards. You can check in baggage and hand luggage only at the airport - you should go to the “baggage reception” counter or any other.

Another popular question is, do pets count as carry-on luggage? Dogs, cats and birds can be transported in the cabin of the ship with S7, but they are not considered hand luggage and are charged at the excess baggage rate.

These are the main points to remember when transporting hand luggage. If you have questions or concerns about the availability of a particular item, it is best to find out by calling the company.

Overweight luggage at the airport may cause additional costs. Before you go on a trip, you should find out in advance what cargo transportation standards are accepted by Aeroflot, S7, Ural Airlines and many others, etc.

Weighing luggage at the airport

There are 2 systems:

weight;
depending on the number of seats.

If we talk about the first, then it only assumes that the weight of your luggage will be limited. For example, if you can carry only 20 kg, then without additional payment you can take with you only 2 suitcases, the weight of each should not exceed 10 kg. Anything over 20 kg will be considered by the airline as exceeding the norm. You will have to pay extra for excess luggage.

For example, the airline has determined that 20 kg can be carried. You take 2 suitcases with you. 1 bag - 17 kg, and 2 bags - 11 kg. You need to calculate the total amount, it is 28 kg. Subtract the allowed weight of luggage, as a result you will get the following value: 28-20=8. You will have to pay extra for 8 kg.

There is another system, it takes into account the number of seats. If we talk about a flight in economy class, then passengers have the right to check in only 1 suitcase. Its weight should not exceed 23 kg.

Utair airline baggage fees

For a better understanding, it is worth considering 2 examples.

Situation 1. You took 2 suitcases with you on a trip. You loaded the first one lightly - 10 kg, but the second one is heavier - 13 kg. Calculating the total weight, you get 23 kg. But it is worth considering that airlines with such a system also limit the amount of luggage. As a result, you will receive an excess of luggage, it is 1 piece.

Situation 2. You have 1 bag, its weight is 28 kg. Although you fit the number of seats, an excess weight of 5 kg will be recorded.

How much does excess baggage cost?

The cost of excess baggage depends on the standards the airline uses as well as the destination. You should always check with the airline for specific numbers. Employees of Aeroflot, Pobeda and S7 companies will always provide assistance to passengers.

The cost of excess baggage may vary from company to company.

If the carrier uses a weighing system, then you will have to pay extra for each kilogram that is recorded above the established limit. Payment is influenced by airline policies and destinations. The cost is calculated taking into account transportation in economy class, and the highest fare is taken into account.

For 1 kg of excess weight, an amount equal to 1.5% of the ticket will be taken. In addition, the air carrier may set a fixed size. Usually the cost of 1 kg of excess weight varies within reasonable limits; a passenger will be charged from 5 to 10 euros.

For example, you are going to fly from Paris to Berlin. In economy class you can carry a suitcase whose weight does not exceed 20 kg. Your bag weighs 24 kg. We can say that the excess was 4 kg. If the tariff for carrying luggage in excess of the established standard is 10 euros per 1 kg, then you will have to pay an additional 40 euros.

Some companies have adopted restrictions not only on weight, but also on the number of seats. In this case, the cost will be calculated differently. You will have to pay extra for excess baggage space that you occupy and for kilograms carried in excess of the norm.

For example, if you are flying from Milan to London, you are entitled to 23 kg of free baggage allowance. Let's say you have a heavy bag, its weight is 31 kg. The airline has set tariffs: if the weight of luggage is more than 23, but less than 32 kg, you will have to pay 100 euros. Keep in mind how much you exceed the norm does not matter. In any case, you will pay 100 euros for an excess of 3 kg and 9 kg.

What to do if you have several suitcases? For example, you took 2 bags with you on a trip. One weighs 20 kg, the other is a little lighter. Let the second bag weigh 14 kg. In this case, there will be an excess, but in terms of the number of places. You will have to pay for 1 more place, usually 50 euros.

Please note that in some situations it is much more profitable to pay extra for 1 piece than to pay for baggage transportation in excess of the established standards. It is recommended to always have a small amount with you, so that the airport staff’s demands will not take you by surprise.

One more example is worth considering. You go on a trip and take 2 suitcases with you. The weight of one bag is 26 kg, and the second is slightly lighter - 15 kg. We can say that airport staff will record an excess not only in the weight of luggage, but also in the number of seats. You will have to pay 100 euros for transporting heavy suitcases. In addition, be prepared to pay 50 euros for 1 additional place. In the end you will pay 150 euros.

What can be done in such a situation? It is best to put some of the things from the heaviest suitcase into a lighter bag. As a result, you will only pay extra for 1 additional seat.

When planning a trip, pay attention to the fact that the weight of 1 suitcase should not exceed 32 kg. If an excess is recorded, the cargo will be considered oversized. Most airports simply won't carry it; you'll have to handle the shipping yourself. At many airports around the world, baggage handlers will not carry bags that weigh more than 32 kg. They are prohibited from doing this. Explore. Almost every airport provides it, but it is paid.

It is worth paying attention to one more rule. We are talking about coordinating the transportation of oversized cargo. Be sure to notify Utair airline or another carrier, otherwise the suitcase may not be accepted for transportation. The air carrier has the right to do this.

Where to pay

To pay for baggage, if you have exceeded the standards, you should contact specialists. Payment counters are located at all airports. You can find out about its location by contacting the employee at the reception desk. Here you will be told about the cost of baggage carried in excess of the norm.

First, your bag will be weighed. Often, passengers do not even have to pay for a small excess of luggage on the plane. Of course, we are talking about 2-3 kg.

Payment counter for additional services at Domodedovo Airport

Review the information provided to clients. Additional payment for excess weight is possible not only at the airport. For example, in 2020, UTair airlines allows 23 kg of baggage in economy class. Aeroflot has established similar standards. But in economy comfort and business class, 2 additional seats of 32 kg each are provided. Special conditions are offered to participants of the UTair “Status” program. For more information, please contact your airline representative.

How many suitcases can you take with you when traveling by plane? On the s7, the number of pieces of luggage, its dimensions and, of course, weight are taken into account.
