Finnair Baggage Allowance 2026

Economy Classic and Flex include 1 checked bag of 23 kg, rising to 2 on flights between Japan and Europe. Premium Economy Classic and Flex get 2 bags of 23 kg to Japan and North America and 1 to Asia and the Middle East. Business Classic and Flex get 3 bags of 32 kg to Japan, 2 to Asia, the Middle East and North America, and 1 bag of 23 kg on other routes. Light tickets in every cabin include no checked bag.

Japan is the one route group where Economy Classic and Flex double to two free bags, a result of how Finnair splits its long-haul network.

The carry-on limit is 55 x 40 x 23 cm, and it shares an 8 kg weight cap with your small bag in Economy and Premium Economy. Business raises that combined cap to 12 kg. Every ticket except Economy Superlight includes one carry-on. Finnair doesn't say whether wheels and handles count, so measure the whole bag.

Your small bag can measure up to 40 x 30 x 15 cm. Finnair lets every passenger bring one, Superlight included, and gives a handbag or laptop bag as examples. Its weight counts toward the same 8 kg total as your carry-on, or 12 kg in Business.

Economy Superlight includes 0 carry-on bags and 0 checked bags, only the small bag. Light adds the 55 x 40 x 23 cm carry-on but still no checked bag. Classic and Flex add the checked allowance shown in the table above. Superlight appears only on routes outside Finnair's long-haul groups, and it is the only ticket where you can buy an extra carry-on.

Business Flex is the only ticket that lists a separate small bag next to the carry-on in the allowance table, with a 12 kg total.

A checked bag can measure up to 90 x 75 x 45 cm (35 x 30 x 18 in). Economy and Premium Economy bags weigh up to 23 kg each. Business bags can weigh 32 kg (70 lb) on long-haul flights and 23 kg on short-haul flights. Finnair accepts bags up to 190 x 75 x 65 cm, and 32 kg is the top of its heavy bag band.

Prepaid, a first checked bag costs EUR 27 to 50 within Finland and Northern Europe and EUR 32 to 55 on other European routes. On North America flights a Light ticket pays EUR 75, USD 85 or GBP 70. Since 1 April 2025, Finnair prices extra bags by the date you bought your ticket.

A bag between 23 and 32 kg costs EUR 65 to 100 prepaid on European routes and EUR 160, USD 180 or GBP 140 prepaid on long-haul routes when bought more than 6 days out. At the airport, an oversized bag costs EUR 65 in Europe and EUR 85 or USD 95 long-haul, each way.

Finnair charges EUR 60 to move a carry-on into the hold at the gate. That applies when the bag is over 55 x 40 x 23 cm or the weight cap, and when you bring a carry-on your ticket doesn't include. Superlight passengers can prepay a carry-on for EUR 12 to 30 instead.

Gold, Platinum and Platinum Lumo members get 1 extra checked bag of up to 23 kg (50 lb). Silver members and above also get a free 55 x 40 x 23 cm carry-on on European flights when they hold a Superlight ticket.

Infants under 2 on Classic and Flex tickets get 1 checked bag of 23 kg. A stroller and a car seat travel free on top of that on every ticket. Infants on Light and Superlight tickets get no checked bag.

Yes. Finnair carries cats and dogs in the cabin when the pet and carrier together weigh no more than 8 kg, in a soft carrier of 55 x 40 x 23 cm. The cabin fee is EUR 60 in Europe and EUR 120 or USD 130 long-haul, booked 7 days ahead. Each customer may bring one carrier.

Sports equipment counts as a standard bag on Finnair if it weighs 23 kg (50 lb) or less. Bicycles, skis, golf clubs and surfboards are priced like any extra checked bag, and a heavy bag charge applies at the airport above 23 kg. Bring gear inside your free allowance and it costs nothing extra.
