Iberia Baggage Allowance 2026

Economy and Premium Economy passengers carry one 56 x 40 x 25 cm cabin bag up to 10 kg plus a 30 x 40 x 15 cm accessory. Business raises the cabin weight to 14 kg and allows two cabin bags on long-haul flights. In the hold, each bag may weigh 23 kg and measure 158 cm. Basic fares include no checked bag, Optima includes one, Comfort two, and Business two.

On a long-haul Business ticket you get a second 14 kg cabin bag, except when you depart from a US airport.

The cabin bag limit is 56 x 40 x 25 cm (22 x 16 x 10 in), and Iberia measures it with the handle, outside pockets and wheels. Every fare includes this bag plus a personal accessory, so Basic travelers keep their cabin bag too. Departures from the USA allow one carry-on and one personal item on the outbound flight.

Your accessory can measure up to 30 x 40 x 15 cm (12 x 16 x 6 in). Iberia names a briefcase, handbag, small portfolio or laptop as typical examples. It comes free on every fare alongside the cabin bag, and no weight limit is published for it.

Yes, there is a limit: 10 kg for the cabin bag in Economy and Premium Economy, and 14 kg in Business. That figure applies to the main bag. For the accessory, Iberia gives a size but no weight.

All fares, Basic included, come with one 10 kg cabin bag and one accessory. For the hold, Basic includes no free checked bag, Optima includes one 23 kg bag and Comfort usually two, while Business includes two. Iberia's help center notes that a fare showing 0 pieces has no free bag, so check the piece count on your booking.

A first extra 23 kg bag on long-haul flights costs from €50 to €117 online and from €70 to €164 at the airport. Domestic flights run from €18 to €49 online, and Europe, Africa and the Middle East from €20 to €81. Lighter 15 kg bags start at about €12 and are sold online only; 32 kg bags start at about €35. Extra bags can't be refunded.

Iberia publishes each price in euros, dollars and pounds, so the long-haul first extra bag reads $58 to $135 online for US buyers.

Each checked bag can weigh 23 kg and measure 158 cm when you add height, width and length, wheels and handle included. Heavier bags pay excess up to 32 kg, and Iberia refuses anything above that. You can check a maximum of 9 items per passenger, but flights to or from Dakar cap you at 2 and Santo Domingo at 3.

Overweight bags between your allowance and 32 kg cost €15 per kg on America and Asia routes and €12 to €15 per kg within Spain and Europe. Business passengers on America and Asia flights pay no excess weight charge. Odd-shaped items cost €35 in Spain, €60 to Europe and €125 to America or Asia, per direction. Over 158 cm or 32 kg, contact Iberia's Booking Service first.

On long-haul flights, Infinita and Platino members get 2 extra pieces in Business and 1 in Economy, plus free excess weight. Oro and oneworld Sapphire members get 1 extra piece, and Plata members also get 1. Children and infants receive the same allowance as an adult, and theirs can also cover a folding stroller or car seat.

Yes, pets up to 8 kg including the carrier can fly in the cabin. Dogs, cats, fish, tortoises and birds other than birds of prey qualify. The container can't exceed 45 x 35 x 25 cm. One-way cabin fees are €40 domestic, €60 for Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and Asia, and €180 on other international routes. Larger pets ride in the hold for €100 to €360 up to 45 kg. Iberia does not accept pets to the United Kingdom.

Sports gear counts against a 23 kg limit, with excess charged up to 32 kg. A golf set means one bag, 14 clubs, 12 balls and a pair of shoes. Bicycles must be non-motorised with one seat, so e-bikes are refused. Instruments up to 30 x 120 x 42 cm, about guitar size, can ride in the cabin, while checked instruments may reach 190 x 75 x 65 cm and 23 kg.

Bags over 56 x 40 x 25 cm or 10 kg are taken off you and loaded in the hold. On the smaller Iberia Regional Air Nostrum aircraft, space can force hand luggage into the hold even when it fits the rules; it travels free and is handed back at the aircraft door.
