Contents

Checked baggage must not include dangerous articles and should not include fragile, perishable or valuable items (cash, jewels, computers, electronic devices, business or important documents, shares, passports or identification documents, etc). The company cannot accept responsibility for these and recommends that they be carried in hand baggage if possible.Undeclared baggage contents is the passenger’s responsibility.

The following articles are considered forbidden checked baggage:

  • x Matches and lighters, since they could be activated by friction.
  • x Fireworks, which could detonate due to their nature.
  • x Inflammable liquids, fuels, paints, solvents, glues, charges for lighters and small gas cylinders for camping as well as substances that could leak and cause a fire.
  • x Domestic articles such as bleach and abrasives that contain properties or chemical substances that could give off toxic emissions or corrosion.
  • x Electronic equipment that could upset the aircraft’s systems and affect flight safety. Electronic cigarettes cannot be included in checked baggage and must be carried in hand baggage or with the passenger.
  • x It is forbidden to carry recreational devices such as hover-boards, air wheels and mini Segways in checked baggage or hand baggage. These devices are not considered mobility aids but Portable Electronic Devices (PED) and may be carried only as cargo.

Remember to check the list of forbidden articles here. There are certain limitations on devices with lithium batteries; these can be found in Lithium batteries limitations.

The carrying of drones is conditional to compliance with the general imitations for carrying batteries and the filling in of a specific liability waiver at check-in, so that it is necessary to arrive at least one hour before the flight’s departure for inter-island flights and an hour and a half for other flights.

If you are carrying firearms, you must go to the Firearms Section in the origin airport to obtain the necessary authorisation. Firearms must be packed in a suitable case and will be handed back in the Firearms Section in the destination airport.

The baggage must be properly packaged without its form or volume being likely to damage other luggage or the aircraft's structure.
