Policy | View Aeroflot’s Regular baggage policy |
Carry-on | Musical instruments may be carried in the cabin as carry-on items in accordance with special conditions. When carrying a musical instrument in the aircraft cabin (except for guitars) whose dimensions do not exceed 135×50×30 cm but exceed 135 cm in total, the rules for carrying baggage on a passenger seat apply. |
Cabin seat | Any baggage that requires special travel conditions (e.g. valuable, brittle, fragile, or breakable objects) can be carried in a passenger seat in the following cases: – the passenger has agreed this service with the airline at least 36 hours before the departure time; The weight of such baggage shall not exceed 80 kg, and its dimensions shall not exceed 135×50×30 cm. The passenger must pay for an additional seat ticket based on the adult passenger fare, with the same fees charged. Payment for excess baggage will not apply in this case. The free baggage allowance does not apply to the passenger seat ticket purchased to transport baggage. Baggage transported in the aircraft cabin must be packed so as to prevent any damage to cabin equipment during the flight. The baggage shall be placed in a window passenger seat and secured with a safety belt. Baggage to be transported in the cabin shall be delivered to the aircraft, lifted, placed in the cabin, removed and transported from the aircraft by the passenger transporting such baggage. Baggage that requires special travel conditions and is carried in the cabin does not need to be checked. Responsibility for its safety and integrity lies with the passenger. |
Checked | Musical instruments whose dimensions exceed the allowed dimensions for baggage to be carried in a passenger seat (and, should the passenger wish, instruments of smaller dimensions) are carried based on the general rules of carriage for free and excess checked baggage in the hold of the aircraft, to ensure their safety during transportation. Carriage must be agreed upon with the airline at least 36 hours before the flight’s scheduled departure. |
