easyJet baggage

easyJet

Baggage allowances on easyJet airlines are based on the additional services purchased for the ticket itself. Each passenger is entitled to a small hand luggage allowance in the basic fare.

Hand baggage allowance

Passengers are entitled to 1 piece of hand luggage of the following dimensions free of charge for each ticket:

  • 45 x 36 x 20 cm

The weight limit for this baggage is a generous 15 kg. However, you will not encounter much weight control at airports. On the contrary, it is very common to have the size measured using baggage cages at the departure gates.

Larger hand luggage

Passengers on the FLEXI fare or those who have purchased the Large Cabin Bag service can have a larger carry-on bag in addition to their small carry-on. In this case you are entitled to 2 pieces of luggage of the following limits:

  • 45 x 36 x 20 cm
  • 56 x 45 x 25 cm

Travellers with a paid easyJet PLUS membership are also entitled to a second larger bag.

Checked baggage

Checked baggage can be purchased from easyJet during the booking process or in Manage My Booking before check-in.

There are weight limits of 15kg, 23kg, 26kg, 29kg and 32kg.

The price of the baggage is based on the distance of the flight and the weight. Usually expect to pay 40 eur per flight for a 23kg bag.

You can check in your baggage at the airport up to 40 minutes before departure. However, on selected flights, check-in desks close as early as 60 minutes before departure, e.g. at London Gatwick or Paris CDG.

Our tip: if you will be purchasing a selection of seats in addition to your checked baggage up to 23kg, it's worth buying the Essentials fare.

Strollers for children

EasyJet allows free carriage of not only the pushchair itself, but a total of 2 items in the hold. If you are travelling with young children, you are entitled to carry 2 items from this list:

  • Stroller (foldable or non-foldable)
  • travel cots
  • car seat
  • booster seat
  • a back carrier

These items can be checked in free of charge at the check-in counter at the airport.

Animals on board

EasyJet does not allow pets on board or in the hold (dogs, cats, parrots, etc.). The only exception is for assistance seeing eye dogs.
