What is Transavia's cabin bag (hand luggage) size?

A Transavia cabin bag can measure up to 55 x 40 x 25 cm, wheels and handles included, and it goes in the overhead bin. It comes free only with Smart and Max. On Basic and Plus you pay to add one. Every passenger also gets a smaller 40 x 30 x 20 cm piece of hand luggage for under the seat.

Transavia caps cabin bags at 70 per flight, so the paid option can sell out on busy departures.

What size is the free hand luggage on Transavia?

Your free hand luggage on Transavia can measure up to 40 x 30 x 20 cm and must fit under the seat in front of you. Transavia gives a small backpack or handbag as examples. This piece comes with every fare, Basic included, and it may weigh up to 10 kg.

What is Transavia's hand luggage weight limit?

Transavia allows 10 kg in the cabin, and that figure covers your hand luggage and cabin bag together, not each one. If you bring only the small under-seat bag, it can weigh 10 kg on its own. Bags over the limit at the gate go in the hold for a fee.

04

What do Basic, Smart, Plus and Max include for bags?

Basic includes only the 40 x 30 x 20 cm hand luggage. Smart adds a 55 x 40 x 25 cm cabin bag, Priority Boarding and a standard seat. Plus swaps the cabin bag for 20 kg of checked baggage and keeps the seat choice. Max includes both: a cabin bag plus 30 kg checked, with Priority Boarding and Fast Track security.

Plus is the only bundle with free checked baggage but no cabin bag, which suits travelers who prefer to check one suitcase.

FARE HAND LUGGAGE CABIN BAG CHECKED BAGGAGE
Basic Yes Paid extra Paid extra
Smart Yes Included Paid extra
Plus Yes Paid extra 20 kg
Max Yes Included 30 kg

Who gets free checked baggage on Transavia?

ESTIMATE

Nobody gets a free checked bag just for elite status. Transavia's Flying Blue pages cover earning and spending Miles and XP but list no baggage perk for Silver, Gold or Platinum members or cardholders. Free checked kilos come only from the Plus (20 kg) and Max (30 kg) fare bundles.

Can you fly with a pet on Transavia?

Yes. Dogs and cats at least 15 weeks old can fly in the cabin for €50 to €180 per pet per one-way flight. The carrier can measure up to 40 x 30 x 24 cm, and pet plus carrier may weigh 8 kg. You still keep your hand luggage. Larger pets go in the hold for €77 per kennel on HV flights, with two pets per flight at most.

Transavia refuses emotional support animals and small rodents such as rabbits and hamsters, and snub-nosed dogs and cats cannot travel in the hold.

OPTION FEE ONE WAY LIMIT

12

Can you bring a pram or buggy on Transavia?

Yes, one pram, umbrella stroller or travel buggy up to 10 kg per child travels free. A light buggy can go to the gate, where staff load it in the hold. Anything over 10 kg is deducted from your booked checked kilos. To take a buggy into the cabin, you must book a paid 55 x 40 x 25 cm cabin bag.

13

How strict is Transavia about hand luggage?

Bags that are too big, too heavy or one piece too many trigger the Gate Luggage Fee, which starts at €70, and the bag goes in the hold. That is above the €60 airport check-in price for an unbooked cabin bag and well above the €20 to €50 online price. With only 70 cabin bag places per flight, booking ahead matters.
