Do you like to travel in comfort and have everything you need with you? At Austrian Airlines, you don’t have to worry about how much you can take with you on your trip. We have the right solution for you, even with larger bags.
What you need to know about excess baggage
Your baggage counts as excess baggage if it exceeds
- the dimensions of 158 to 292 cm (height + width + length) and
- a weight of 24 to 32 kg.
In Business Class bags up to 32 kg are included, though they also count as excess baggage if they exceed 158 cm.
Excess baggage charges depend on the flight route and your baggage allowance. An additional ticket service fee may also be charged.
Bags over 32 kg and a maximum size of 292 cm (length + width + height) are not accepted at check-in. There are special conditions of carriage applicable to bags that exceed the maximum dimensions of 158 cm (length + width + height). Please register them with our help desk by telephone or in writing using our contact form.
The permitted dimensions and weight of your baggage are precisely defined so you can carry it with you as checked baggage. If your baggage is too heavy, too oversized or too heavy and too oversized, you will incur an additional charge at the airport. Please refer to the tables below for the exact prices (per leg per bag).
