NOT PUBLISHED

04

Which Vueling bundles include a cabin bag: Fly Light, Fly, Fly Pro or Fly Grande?

CONFLICT

Three of the four bundles include the 55 x 40 x 20 cm overhead bag. Fly lets you choose between that bag and a 25 kg checked bag. Fly Pro includes the overhead bag plus priority boarding but no checked bag, and Fly Grande includes both. Fly Light covers only the under-seat bag, though you can add the 2 pieces on board service, a Space seat or the Fast Pack.

Vueling's checked bag article still lists Optima and Family as fares with a 25 kg bag, names its bundle page no longer uses.

Fly Light Yes Paid extra Paid extra No
Fly Yes Choice of one Choice of one (25 kg) No
Fly Pro Yes Yes Paid extra Yes
Fly Grande Yes Yes Yes (25 kg) Yes

How much does Vueling charge for checked bags?

A 25 kg checked bag costs 18 to 99 EUR when added online, depending on the route, and 50 to 160 EUR at the airport. Vueling says adding a bag online is 50% cheaper. You can also buy 15 kg (10 to 95 EUR), 20 kg (14 to 96 EUR) or 30 kg (25 to 120 EUR) bags online, one of each weight per passenger.

Some routes to Africa (outside the Canary Islands) and the Middle East cap checked bags at 1 or 2 per passenger.

Can you take skis, golf clubs or a bike on Vueling?

ESTIMATE

Yes, as special luggage. Skis, snowboards, golf clubs, bikes, surfboards, windsurf sails and musical instruments are accepted, and the price depends on the item type, from about €40 per item per flight when added online. Airport prices are higher. Bikes need deflated tires and pedals removed. Barcelona delivers special luggage at a separate carousel.

Musicians can buy an extra seat to keep a large instrument in the cabin.

12

How strict is Vueling about cabin bag size at the gate?

Gate staff charge 60 to 75 EUR to check an under-seat bag larger than 40 x 30 x 20 cm, and 110 to 140 EUR for any bag over 55 x 40 x 20 cm. The same fee applies to any bag you didn't book in advance, so a Fly Light passenger with a wheeled case pays the higher rate.

UNDER-SEAT BAG OVER 40 X 30 X 20 CM 60 to 75 EUR
ANY BAG OVER 55 X 40 X 20 CM 110 to 140 EUR
13

Do Vueling's bag rules apply on Iberia and codeshare flights?

No, hand luggage follows the operating airline's policy. When two legs of one trip are flown by different airlines, the stricter allowance of the two applies to both. On Iberia or British Airways flights, extra bags can only be added at that airline's check-in desk.
