ITA Airways Baggage Allowance 2026

Economy includes 1 x 23 kg checked bag, and Premium Economy includes 2 x 23 kg. Business gets 2 x 32 kg, dropping to 2 x 23 kg on domestic flights in Italy, and Business Comfort carries 1 x 23 kg on those domestic routes. Economy Light comes with no checked bag at all. Each bag may measure up to 158 cm in total.

Business Comfort is the one Business fare that ITA Airways lists with a single bag, and only on flights inside Italy.

The cabin bag limit is 55 x 40 x 23 cm and 8 kg, with handles, side pockets and wheels counted in the size. You also get a personal item on top of that bag. The carry-on page applies one rule and does not split it by cabin or fare.

A personal item can measure up to 30 x 40 x 15 cm. ITA Airways names a handbag, small backpack or laptop bag as examples, and the item rides under the seat in front. No weight limit is published for it, so the size is the rule to watch.

Economy Light includes 0 checked bags, while the other Economy fares include 1 x 23 kg. Light passengers pay a per-flight supplement for the first checked bag, and also when the cabin bag goes over the weight or size limit. Flex and Comfort Plus fares pick up a second 23 kg bag on Italy to Japan flights. Basic is not a separate fare: ITA groups it with Classic, Saver and Comfort, so it carries the same 1 x 23 kg.

Fee tables group fares under labels such as Classic/Saver/Basic/Comfort and Classic Plus/Basic Plus, so one price row can cover several fare names.

On Economy Light, the first checked bag costs €60 on domestic flights and €70 between Italy and Europe or North Africa. The second bag costs €75 domestic and €85 to Europe. Extra bags on Classic, Saver, Basic and Comfort fares cost €65 domestic and €75 to Europe, in Economy, Premium Economy and Business alike. Economy Flex pays less: €55 and €60. Prices apply per single route.

ITA Airways quotes these fees in euros and US dollars side by side, for example €60 / $75 for the first domestic Light bag.

Checked bags can measure up to 158 cm, adding height, width and depth. Standard pieces in Economy and Premium Economy are 23 kg, and Business pieces on international routes are 32 kg. No single item may exceed 32 kg, whatever you pay.

A bag between 158 and 203 cm counts as oversize. It costs €60 on domestic flights, €80 to Europe and North Africa excluding Egypt, and €300 to all other countries, including Tel Aviv and Egypt. Paying for 23 to 32 kg is sold only in Business, so in Economy a heavier bag needs a second piece instead.

Japan is the main exception: Economy gets 2 x 23 kg to and from Japan. Flights from Accra and Dakar carry 2 x 23 kg in select Economy fares. Comfort Plus and Flex passengers flying from Saudi Arabia to the USA and Canada also get 2 x 23 kg.

Yes, dogs and cats only since December 1, 2025. In the cabin, pet, carrier and food together can weigh 12 kg on domestic flights and 8 kg elsewhere, in a soft carrier of 55 x 40 x 23 cm. Cabin fees run €73 domestic, €95 to Europe and €210 or €230 long-haul, per route. The hold costs €83 domestic, and brachycephalic breeds have been barred there since October 26, 2025. Buy the pet ticket at least 48 hours ahead.

The Large Dog On Board service lets dogs up to 30 kg ride in the cabin on selected domestic Large Dog flights.

Small sports equipment costs €75 at the airport on flights within Italy. That category covers a golf bag with clubs, balls and shoes, and a ski or snowboard set with boots and helmet. Bicycles fall into the large sports equipment group and must travel boxed with pedals removed.

April 1, 2026 is the date ITA Airways joined Miles & More as a fully integrated partner. The release covers loyalty only and lists no baggage benefits for status members. ITA's own allowance tables still apply on flights it operates.

Size and weight are both capped, at 55 x 40 x 23 cm and 8 kg. On busy flights, staff may collect carry-ons at the gate and send them to the hold. Economy Light passengers pay a supplement when the cabin bag breaks either limit.
