Aegean Airlines allows one cabin bag up to 56 x 45 x 25 cm and about 8 kg on Airbus jets (55 x 40 x 23 cm on turboprops) plus a handbag or laptop case. Free checked bags: none on Light, Flex or Family, one on Comfort Flex and two in Business, each up to 23 kg. Light passengers check the cabin bag free at boarding when bins fill.
Light, Flex and Family include 0 free checked bags, Comfort Flex includes 1 and Business includes 2, each up to 23 kg and 158 cm (62 in) in total. Miles+Bonus Gold and Star Alliance Gold members get about 1 extra piece. On long-haul routes expect about 1 x 23 kg in economy and 2 x 32 kg in Business; the calculator confirms the allowance per route.
Family fare passengers pay half the Light price for pre-purchased extra bags.
| FARE | CABIN | FREE CHECKED BAGS | WEIGHT PER BAG |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light | Economy | 0 | 23 kg |
| Flex | Economy | 0 | 23 kg |
| Family | Economy | 0 (50% off extra bags) | 23 kg |
| Comfort Flex | Economy | 1 | 23 kg |
| Business | Business | 2 | 23 kg |
On Airbus jets the cabin bag limit is 56 x 45 x 25 cm, and on turboprops it drops to 55 x 40 x 23 cm. You also get a personal item, and the bag should weigh about 8 kg in economy. Aegean's Conditions & Notices page sets a lower cap of 115 cm in total for the one cabin piece, which the Airbus figure exceeds, so we flag the two as a conflict.
These baggage rules also cover flights operated by Olympic Air aircraft, Aegean's regional sister airline.
No dimensions are published for the Aegean personal item. The airline describes it as a women's or men's handbag or a thin laptop case, carried in addition to the one cabin bag. A small backpack isn't named, so treat anything bulkier than a laptop case as your cabin bag.
Expect a cabin bag weight limit of about 8 kg on economy fares and about 13 kg in Business; Aegean's per-fare table loads by script, so treat these as a guide. Size matters too: 56 x 45 x 25 cm on Airbus jets and 55 x 40 x 23 cm on turboprops. Light passengers may have to check the bag free at boarding when bins are full.
Yes, 1 cabin bag goes with you on Light, but it has a catch. When the overhead bins are full, Light passengers must check that bag at boarding, though Aegean doesn't charge for it. The five fare families are Light, Flex, Family, Comfort Flex and Business, and Light is the only one Aegean names for this gate rule.
| FARE | CABIN BAG | BINS FULL RULE |
|---|---|---|
| Light | Yes | Checked free at boarding |
| Flex | Yes | None stated |
| Family | Yes | None stated |
| Comfort Flex | Yes | None stated |
| Business | Yes | None stated |
Aegean publishes no fixed extra-bag price list: fees depend on the fare family, the destination and the flight date, and the baggage calculator quotes them per route. You can add bags online or in My Booking up to 2 hours before departure. Buying through the call center after ticketing adds an €8 service fee per passenger. Family fares get 50% off the Light price for pre-purchased bags.
A standard checked bag can weigh 23 kg and measure 158 cm (62 in) when you add length, width and height. Pieces between 23 kg and 32 kg are accepted as overweight baggage. Nothing over 32 kg goes in the hold as baggage; Aegean sends it as cargo. Each passenger can bring 5 items in total, counting bags, pets, sports gear and instruments.
Over 23 kg and up to 32 kg counts as overweight on Aegean, and the charge comes from the same route-based calculator as extra bags. A piece within 32 kg but over 158 cm (62 in) becomes special baggage with its own fee. Anything above 32 kg is accepted only as cargo.
Yes. A cat or dog can ride in the cabin if pet and container together weigh 8 kg or less, for €35 on domestic flights and €65 on international ones. Only one pet per passenger is allowed in the cabin, and Aegean lists no container dimensions. Heavier pets travel in the hold: €50 to €120 for 8 to 25 kg and €90 to €190 above 25 kg, depending on route and connections. Certified service dogs fly in the cabin.
| OPTION | DOMESTIC | INTERNATIONAL |
|---|---|---|
| Cabin, up to 8 kg | €35 | €65 |
| Hold, 8 to 25 kg | €50 direct, €55 connecting | €110 direct, €120 connecting |
| Hold, over 25 kg | €90 direct, €95 connecting | €180 direct, €190 connecting |
Sports gear costs €35 up to 15 kg or 1.40 m, €55 for 15 to 32 kg or 1.41 to 2 m, and €80 for 15 to 32 kg over 2 m. You can add it when booking, in Manage my booking or at online check-in. Musical instruments are different: only the AEGEAN call center can book them.
| SIZE | LIMIT | FEE |
|---|---|---|
| Small | Up to 15 kg and/or 1.40 m | €35 |
| Medium | 15 to 32 kg and/or 1.41 to 2 m | €55 |
| Large | 15 to 32 kg and/or over 2 m | €80 |
1 collapsible stroller travels free of charge on any fare. Infants under 2 get a cabin bag up to 55 x 40 x 23 cm. On Family fares, extra checked bags bought in advance cost half the Light price.
Light fares carry the main risk: when bins fill, those passengers check their cabin bag at the gate, free of charge. Turboprop flights use the smaller 55 x 40 x 23 cm limit, so a bag that fits an Airbus may not fit there. Aegean also caps each passenger at 5 items of every kind.
No. Aegean's extra baggage definition treats the first piece as extra on both Light and Flex tickets. Comfort Flex is the first economy fare with a free checked bag, at 23 kg.
Yes. One collapsible stroller travels free of charge on every fare, Light included. Infants under 2 also get a cabin bag up to 55 x 40 x 23 cm.
Yes, but it counts as overweight. Bags over 23 kg and up to 32 kg pay an overweight charge, and anything above 32 kg is accepted only as cargo.
Two free checked bags. Aegean counts the third piece as extra baggage in Business, and each piece follows the 158 cm (62 in) size limit.
Yes. A cat or dog in the cabin costs €35 on domestic flights and €65 on international flights, with pet and container together limited to 8 kg.
Five in total per passenger. Aegean counts bags, pets, sports or special equipment and musical instruments toward that cap of 5 items.
8 kg is the likely limit on economy fares, and about 13 kg in Business. The bag must also fit 56 x 45 x 25 cm on Airbus jets or 55 x 40 x 23 cm on turboprops.
