FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What kind of hand luggage is allowed?

Transavia

Since April 3, 2024, Transavia has implemented a new carry-on baggage policy. Carry-on items are now classified into two categories: cabin baggage and hand baggage.

 

Passengers aged 2 and up may bring one piece of hand baggage (such as a small backpack or handbag). Maximum hand baggage dimensions: 40 x 30 x 20 cm

This item can always be taken into the cabin and should be placed under the seat in front of you. Small bags such as a handbag, laptop bag, plastic shopping bag, or camera bag also count as one piece of hand baggage.

You are also allowed to bring an umbrella, walking stick, and one bag of duty-free items on board.

 

Would you like to bring larger luggage? Add a piece of cabin baggage (max 55 x 35 x 25 cm*, such as a travel bag or trolley) to your booking. You will also receive Priority Boarding. Make sure to arrive at the gate on time, so you can be among the first to board the plane.

Cabin baggage, combined with hand baggage, must not exceed a total weight of 10 kg and must meet the size requirements.

You can book this baggage yourself via Transavia’s self-service options, subject to availability, starting 5 days before departure. The service email you receive with the latest flight information includes a link to book. This guarantees that you can bring your cabin baggage on board and receive Priority Boarding.

 

Gate Baggage Fee

Please measure and weigh your hand and cabin baggage at home to ensure it meets the above requirements. Your baggage will be checked at the airport. If it is too large, too heavy, or if you have too many items, a fee starting at €65 will be charged at the gate, and the baggage will be transported in the hold.

 
 
I'm traveling with a baby, how much hand luggage can I take with me?
A baby up to 2 years old is not allowed carry-on baggage if traveling on your lap. If you wish to bring baby food, a diaper bag or other baby items into the cabin, please put them in your own hand luggage.
You are allowed to take a foldable stroller up to 10 kg to the gate. The foldable buggy is collected at the boarding gate and transported in the hold. The stroller falls into the category of 10 kg checked baggage that you are allowed to take with you for the baby.

 

Brussels Airlines
Each passenger of 2 years and older is allowed to bring 1 piece of hand luggage and 1 accessory:

  • Up to 8 kg
  • Max. dimensions 55 x 40 x 23 cm incl. Handles and wheels for handluggage
  • Max. dimensions 40 x 10 x 30 cm incl. Handles and wheels for the accessory

Small bags such as a handbag, laptop bag or camera bag count as 1 accessory.

On busy flights, it could happen that hand luggage will be collected at the gate. This luggage will then be transported (free of charge) in the hold. After the flight, you can retrieve your luggage from the baggage carousel together with the checked baggage, if any.

If your luggage will be going in the hold, you are permitted to take out any valuables, documents, electronic devices or medicine first. We recommend placing these items in a separate bag at home so that you can access them easily during the flight.

How many pieces of hand luggage can I take with me for my baby/child?
It is not allowed to bring separate hand luggage for a baby up to 2 years.
Would you like to take baby food, a nappy bag or other items for your baby with you in the cabin? Please put them in your own hand luggage.
