To take an ins­tru­ment on board, it must fit within your cabin bag allo­wan­ce, which will depend on the type of seat you have selec­ted (see below). Musical ins­tru­ments that are lar­ger than your cabin bag allo­wan­ce, up to the size of a cello, can tra­vel in the cabin if a sepa­ra­te tic­ket is pur­cha­sed for them. Seats bought for musi­cal ins­tru­ments do not come with any cabin bag allo­wan­ce. All cus­to­mers can bring on board:

• One small cabin bag
• Maximum size 45 x 36 x 20 cm (inclu­ding any hand­les or wheels)
• Bag must fit under the seat in front of you

Customers who have boo­ked an Up front or Extra legroom seat can also bring on board:

• One addi­tio­nal lar­ge cabin bag
• Maximum size 56 x 45 x 25 cm (inclu­ding any hand­les or wheels)
• Bag must fit in the overhead locker

In addi­tion to the stan­dard cabin bag allo­wan­ce, as an easyJet Plus cardhol­der or FLEXI fare cus­to­mer, you can also bring on board a lar­ge overhead cabin bag by selec­ting an Up front or Extra legroom seat when you fly. You can do this, free of char­ge or at a dis­coun­ted rate, as one of the bene­fits of your mem­bership or fare.

Any musi­cal ins­tru­ments that are lar­ger than 30 x 117 x 38 cm can only tra­vel in the cabin if a sepa­ra­te tic­ket is pur­cha­sed for them. They may sit on the seat or on the floor, upright or at an angle, but must meet the requi­re­ments lis­ted below. Safety is our num­ber one prio­rity, so plea­se note that even if the ins­tru­ment meets all requi­re­ments, if our crew are not satis­fied that the ins­tru­ment can be safely sto­wed, we will have to pla­ce it in the hold.

• Instruments to tra­vel in the cabin if a seat is pur­cha­sed for them:
• must not exceed the maxi­mum allo­wed weight of 75kg (ins­tru­ment and case combined)
• need to fit within the mini­mum seat width of 43cm
• must be in a case, with a hand­le which is capa­ble of being used to pass the seat belt through, so that they can be safely secu­red to the seat
• must not pro­tru­de more than 30cm abo­ve the top of the seat back. The seat height is 68cm from the seat cushion, and 114cm from the floor
• can only be pla­ced in win­dow seats
• can­not be boo­ked in res­tric­ted seats or seats in the rows next to res­tric­ted seats

To book a seat for your ins­tru­ment, you’ll need to add a pas­sen­ger to your boo­king and add ‘Mr Musical Instrument’ as the pas­sen­ger name. If you’ve already boo­ked your seat and need to add a musi­cal ins­tru­ment, plea­se con­tact our Customer Services Team.

Please be awa­re that seats bought for musi­cal ins­tru­ments do not come with any cabin bag allowance.

If you’d pre­fer, you can check your ins­tru­ment into the hold ins­tead, by boo­king a hold lug­ga­ge allowance.

Any ins­tru­ment that does not meet the requi­re­ments (abo­ve) allo­wing it to safely tra­vel in the cabin must also be chec­ked into the hold.

Please ensu­re ins­tru­ments are pac­ked safely and securely.

We recom­mend you buy spe­cia­list tra­vel insu­ran­ce to cover your musi­cal ins­tru­ment befo­re you travel.
