Checked baggage<\/h2>\n\n

Checked baggage is always divided into free baggage and excess baggage or special baggage. The checked baggage allowance is free of charge, as it is included in the flight ticket. <\/p>\n\n

Baggage allowance with Air Cairo<\/h3>\n\n

The free baggage allowance on your flight depends on the fare you have booked and the flight zone (departure airport – destination airport). In most cases, 23 kg baggage allowance is included on most international flights. For more information, please visit the Air Cairo website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

Excess baggage at Air Cairo<\/h3>\n\n

If your baggage exceeds the baggage allowance policy, it is called excess baggage. Excess baggage must be paid additionally. If you already know in advance of your trip that you are carrying excess baggage, we recommend that you book the excess baggage via the Air Cairo flight portal. <\/p>\n\n

    Special baggage with Air Cairo<\/h2>\n\n

    Special baggage is larger and heavier<\/strong> than ordinary checked baggage. <\/p>\n\n

      \n
    1. Bulky baggage:<\/strong> This includes bulky or unwieldy items such as bicycles, golf equipment, surfboards, skis or snowboards. This type of baggage often requires special arrangements and possibly additional fees for transportation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Sports equipment: <\/strong>If you want to bring your own sports equipment, such as diving equipment, fishing, kayaking or other sports equipment, it is considered special baggage. Airlines usually have specific policies and fees for the carriage of sports equipment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Musical instruments:<\/strong> Musical instruments such as guitars, violins, wind instruments or drum sets are also considered special baggage. Since they are often delicate, you should take special protective measures, such as buying an extra seat or using special carrying cases.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

      Additional charges apply for special baggage.<\/p>\n\n
