Generally accepted rules and regulations “S7. S7 Airlines: baggage and hand luggage allowances. S7 Airlines S7 luggage and hand luggage

Baggage and hand luggage of S7 Airlines are transported in accordance with the rules mandatory for all passengers. It is advisable to decide what you will take with you on your trip before purchasing tickets. Paying for baggage during the online booking process is significantly cheaper than paying at the airport before boarding the aircraft.

Baggage allowance on S7 aircraft

The rules and regulations for baggage transportation on international flights and within Russia are the same and are dictated by the design features of the aircraft, as well as flight safety requirements.

How many suitcases you can carry without paying depends on the fare you choose. Hand luggage is carried free of charge in all cases.

Allowed free allowance
"Economy Basic"Free - hand luggage only. There is a charge for checked baggage. A suitcase weighing up to 23 kg and dimensions no more than 203 cm in the sum of three sides.
"Economy Flexible"You can carry one piece of luggage weighing up to 23 kg and measuring no more than 203 cm in total dimensions for free.
"Business Basic"Free - one suitcase weighing up to 32 kg and dimensions no more than 203 cm in sum of the sides.
"Business Flexible"Free - two suitcases weighing up to 32 kg and dimensions no more than 203 cm in sum of the sides.

You can often hear from passengers that baggage is added up. For example, you have two suitcases with a total weight of 23 kg, which can be combined and arranged as 1 piece. In the case of S7 Airlines, this approach is not practiced.

One piece represents one suitcase or bag.

This is important to consider when planning your trip.

When it comes to luggage for two, it also cannot be combined. If you are traveling in a group, it is better to distribute all the suitcases among each other in advance so that the baggage allowance for one passenger is met. The transportation of the company/group's necessary travel items should be considered before the moment, so that during the online booking process all baggage can be effectively distributed and checked in.

The baggage allowance for a child is the same as for adults if a minor passenger occupies a separate seat. years old belongs to the “Infant” category, so it can be transported on the lap of one of the parents. In this case, both are subject to the same carry-on baggage allowance. When a separate seat is issued for a child, you can take a separate bag for him.

When done, the passenger is given a 20% discount. For this procedure, you can use the carrier’s official website or a special mobile application for devices based on Android or iOS.

You can also pay for transportation online using a bank card. If you check in at the airport, the cost will increase significantly.

Participants in the S7 Priority loyalty program can earn money that they have accumulated in the process of regularly using the services of the airline and its partners. is also possible for participants of similar programs of other members of the Oneworld alliance - Emgrand, Ruby and Sapphire. To participate in S7 Priority, you must register on the program website or purchase a special Tinkoff bank card.

Excess baggage

Carrying excess baggage that goes beyond what is permitted both in size and weight is only possible with a certain surcharge. Its size depends not only on the magnitude of the excess, but also on the direction of the route. The approximate price of one excess seat will be as follows:

  • domestic flights within Russia – from 2,000 to 15,000 rubles;
  • flights to CIS countries – from 3,000 to 18,000 rubles;
  • flights to Europe and Southeast Asia - from 50 to 300 euros.

A more accurate amount of excess transportation can be clarified by calling the toll-free number 8-800-700-07-07.

If the dimensions of one piece of baggage exceed 203 cm in total dimensions, it is considered oversized, and if it weighs more than 32 kg, it is considered heavy. Whether to check luggage in this case or not, the airline decides individually, focusing on the characteristics of the aircraft used. At European airports, the maximum permitted baggage weight is 32 kg. In case of excess, it is necessary to order freight transportation at the appropriate rates.

Carrying hand luggage

Each passenger is allowed to take with him into the aircraft cabin free of charge only. It can be placed on a special shelf above the passenger seats.

The size and dimensions of hand luggage should not exceed 55 x 40 x 20 cm, including wheels and handles.

In economy class, a passenger is allowed to carry one bag weighing no more than 10 kg, and in business class - two pieces with a total weight of 15 kg. If these standards are exceeded, the suitcase must be returned for transportation in the cargo compartment of the aircraft.

At the airport, no one will measure the size of your carry-on luggage with a tape measure. There are special template frames near the flight check-in counters. If the dimensions of the bag meet the standards, you can take it with you into the cabin for free. Otherwise, you need to check in your luggage and pay for additional space.

It is no coincidence that the size of a carry-on bag has strict restrictions. S7 aircraft can simultaneously accommodate 60-180 passengers, depending on the aircraft model. There should be enough space for all things in the cabin. Bags can be placed either on the luggage rack or on the floor under the seat in front. However, passengers sitting near emergency exits are strictly prohibited from placing bags and other things on the floor.

What can you take with you as hand luggage?

You already know the parameters of hand luggage in the S7, but now let’s look at its contents. You should take into the aircraft cabin what you may need during the flight or immediately after landing:

  • a handbag, briefcase, purse or backpack, if its dimensions do not exceed the size restrictions of hand luggage;
  • bouquet of flowers;
  • umbrella no more than 55 cm long;
  • outerwear that will be needed when leaving the plane after landing;
  • small fragile items that may be damaged in the luggage compartment;
  • Food;
  • baby food for an infant passenger, as well as a spare set of diapers, clothes and wet wipes;
  • a suit placed in a briefcase;
  • medications or various dietary products that may be needed during the flight;
  • canes, walkers, crutches, rollators used by passengers with reduced mobility, as well as wheelchairs if the dimensions allow them to be safely placed on a shelf or under a seat;
  • goods from a Duty Free store in a sealed plastic bag weighing up to 3 kg;

  • to cause bodily harm to passengers or crew members;
  • to damage aircraft systems;
  • to carry out a terrorist attack.

Any items deemed dangerous by security personnel will be removed prior to boarding. As for the safety razor, it can be carried in hand luggage.

Carrying liquids in hand luggage

Liquids in large bottles got into prohibited items that cannot be taken into the aircraft cabin. If you are transporting alcohol, shampoo and other substances in liquid form in containers larger than 100 ml, they must be checked in as baggage at the airport. It should be noted that the category of liquids also includes substances in a paste-like state and gels - toothpaste, creams, cosmetics, shaving foam, mascara, honey, soft cheeses, etc. This even includes cans, in which 2 /3 of the volume is occupied by liquid. The cost of luggage on an airplane does not change depending on the presence of liquid substances in it.

In hand luggage, passengers are allowed to carry liquid substances in containers with a volume of no more than 100 ml. The total volume of liquid should not exceed 1000 ml per person. Vials must be packaged in a separate bag and placed in a bag. In hand luggage, subject to the above-mentioned standards, you can carry:

  • water, juices and syrups;
  • honey, jam, confiture and other sweet foods;
  • perfumes, deodorants, shaving foams and cosmetics;
  • creams, gels and pastes;
  • food for children under 2 years old;
  • medicines;
  • shower gels, shampoos and teeth rinses;
  • canned food and compotes.

The limits of 100 and 1000 ml per passenger do not apply to baby food for feeding on board if a child under two years old is flying with an adult. Dry cereals, which can be diluted with boiling water on an airplane, are not considered liquids.

Restrictions do not apply to liquid products purchased in Duty Free stores. In terms of weight, they must fit into the carry-on baggage standards and be sealed in a transparent bag that cannot be unpacked until the end of the flight.

For medicines in liquid form, the requirement “100 ml - one bottle” remains. If this volume is exceeded, the need to take the medication is documented. The drug must be in its original packaging so that the safety control officer has the opportunity to examine the composition. Carrying medications containing narcotic substances must be accompanied by a prescription or a doctor’s certificate. On international flights, you must have a certified translation of these documents into the official language of the destination country.

Additional baggage allowance

Passengers with the Basic Economy fare are only allowed to carry hand luggage free of charge. If you need to take with you another bag weighing up to 23 kg, which will have to be checked in at the airport for transportation in the cargo hold, an additional payment for additional baggage is required. Other rates, as mentioned above, include the carriage of 1-2 pieces of luggage. You only need to pay extra if you exceed the permitted limit. To save money, fees should be paid in advance online.

When booking your ticket online, you can pay a 20% discount for carrying an additional bag. If you do this when checking in online at least 4 hours before departure, the discount will be only 10%.

If payment is made later, the discount does not apply.

On S7 Airlines planes you can carry free baggage in the form of one set of snowboarding or skiing equipment per passenger. It may include one pair of skis, boots, poles, snowboard, goggles and helmet. Equipment must be packed in a case and occupy only one place. The maximum weight for economy class is 23 kg, for business class – 32 kg.

Items prohibited for transportation on board an aircraft

Passengers are prohibited from transporting and transiting baggage if it contains the following dangerous objects and substances:

  • fireworks, signal flares and other pyrotechnic products;
  • firearms, cartridges and other ammunition;
  • fiberglass brighteners and repair kits;
  • compressed gases, including cylinders for scuba divers;
  • poisons, weed and insect repellents, as well as viruses and dangerous bacteria;
  • caustic substances - acids, electrolyte, mercury, etc.;
  • flammable and explosive substances in liquid and solid form - paints, solvents, lighter gasoline, gunpowder, etc.;
  • radioactive substances.

Take a sociological survey!

Rules for transporting animals

On S7 Airlines planes, dogs, cats and pet birds are allowed to be carried as hand luggage or additional baggage. Other animals can only be transported in the cargo hold. In this case, it is not possible to add oversized luggage in the form of livestock.

If the animal is transported in the cabin, its weight cannot exceed 8 kg including the container. The dimensions of the cage must be within the normal limits for carry-on luggage in order to fit it under the seat.

It is prohibited to let the animal out of the container during the flight. The pet should also not cause inconvenience to other passengers (unpleasant odors, loud noise, etc.). Free transportation is not provided, so payment is made at the rates for additional excess baggage.

Only passengers at least 18 years old can transport animals by contacting the company's sales offices. The request for transportation must be made no later than 48 hours before the flight. Before flying, your pet should be placed in a hard plastic container or metal cage with access to air. The internal dimensions of the cage should allow the animal to stand up to its full height and turn around itself. The container must be equipped with a rigid closure device and absorbent material at the bottom. Bird cages must be covered with thick, light-proof fabric.

No more than two animals weighing up to 14 kg can be in one cage if they behave calmly. The container is also allowed to transport three pets of the same litter not older than six months or nursing puppies and kittens. It is recommended not to place a strong and a weak animal in the same cage.

The airline reserves the right to refuse transportation of animals in order to limit their number depending on the type of airliner, flight route and commercial load of the cargo hold. In the passenger cabin, you are allowed to transport no more than two cages with pets and birds of non-antagonistic species, so cats and dogs cannot fly on the same flight. Before the flight, the pet must undergo control at the airport veterinary service. Before taking your pet on a trip, carefully read the rules for transporting animals on S7 aircraft.

Transfer luggage

If there is no possibility of a direct flight, you have to get to your destination with a transfer. If it is necessary to change the plane abroad, the passenger is allowed to arrange transfer baggage and a ticket. In this case, at the transfer airport, the suitcases will be transported to another aircraft without additional inspection and registration. A passenger can wait in a closed transfer zone for 24-96 hours, depending on the country in which he is located.

According to the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 172 dated March 3, 2012 “On the simplified procedure for performing customs operations,” transfer luggage is processed only if it does not contain goods subject to mandatory customs declaration when exported outside the Customs Union. A special tag is attached to suitcases and bags, indicating the absence of goods that must be declared when exported from Russia.

If there are goods that need to be declared, baggage transportation is processed only to the transfer airport. The passenger must personally receive their suitcases and rebook them for another flight.

Delays or loss of luggage can occur with any airline, regardless of its category and level of service. The most common reasons are an error by departure airport staff or the loss of a tag from a bag. The passenger, as a rule, discovers the loss only after arrival, when it is not possible to find the suitcase on the conveyor belt. When you find yourself in a difficult situation, it is important to act correctly.

Missing report

To find your luggage, you should first contact the airport employee who is responsible for searching for lost suitcases and bags of passengers. He will draw up a PIR with a description of the lost luggage (size, color, special features, brand, etc.) and begin searching for it. One copy of the document is issued to the passenger.

Tracking process

The search for luggage by airport employees is carried out using the global World Tracer system. It covers almost all passenger airports in the world. If a lost suitcase is mistakenly flown in another direction, it can be found and delivered to the point where its owner is located. In case of loss of a tag, searches are carried out according to the external description that the passenger indicated in the PIR act.

While waiting, you can periodically check the status of your searches in World Tracer by indicating the PIR act number and your last name in Latin. However, it is not possible to track luggage in this way at all airports. In this case, you should request information from airport employees responsible for the search, or contact representatives of S7 Airlines.

Damage to luggage

If the suitcase was damaged during transportation, as in the previous case, a PIR report must be drawn up indicating all defects. The carrier will not accept passenger claims if they are related to dents or scratches of suitcases, as well as loss of handles and wheels.

Claim for compensation

Compensation for lost luggage by S7 Airlines is paid only after an official investigation has been carried out in each specific case and an appropriate decision has been made.

To initiate an investigation, you must send a written complaint in free form to the company's head office. The document can be delivered in person or sent by registered mail to the address 633104 Novosibirsk Region, Ob, Mozzherina Ave., 10, PJSC Siberia Airlines.

The claim must include detailed information about the baggage. The following must be attached to the document:

  • luggage tag;
  • PIR act;
  • flight boarding pass;
  • itinerary receipt (preferably);
  • other documents (receipts, checks, certificates, etc.) that serve as substantiation of the stated claims;
  • Bank account details for transferring the compensation amount.

Documents must be original or certified copy. In your letter of claim, you must indicate your contact phone number and return postal address to receive an official response.

Passenger customs declaration

Passengers on international flights must fill out a customs passenger declaration if they are transporting in accompanied/unaccompanied baggage across the border of the Customs Union:

  • goods with a value of more than 10,000 euros or a weight of more than 50 kg;
  • $10,000 cash or traveler's checks;
  • securities - bank checks, bills, shares, etc.;
  • items of cultural value;
  • state awards of the Russian Federation;
  • animals and plants that are on the verge of extinction, as well as products obtained from them;
  • medical preparations containing narcotic substances;
  • radio-electronic and high-frequency devices intended for civilian use;
  • technical devices with data encryption function;
  • weapons and ammunition;
  • goods for personal use, including those received as an inheritance.

Currently, the declaration can be filled out online on the official website of Domodedovo Customs. The document can be immediately printed and sent electronically to the customs terminal.

Some important points

When booking tickets online, the passenger can only include the cost of transporting an additional seat. Check-in of hand luggage and baggage, including additional payment for overweight, is carried out only at the airport at the “Baggage Reception” counter.

If a passenger has a child under 11 years of age, they are given the opportunity to transfer a stroller, bassinet or car seat free of charge if the dimensions of the device do not exceed 55 x 40 x 20 cm. When the folded stroller does not meet these dimensions, it is placed in the cargo compartment before departure . If there is no child, the stroller is transported subject to baggage allowance.

Firearms and ammunition may only be transported in special metal containers in the cargo hold of an aircraft. To do this, the passenger must submit to the airport security service documents confirming the right to store and carry firearms, as well as permission from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to export or import them.

conclusions

The baggage requirements for S7 Airlines as of 2019 are dictated by current international and Russian regulations, as well as the technical features of the aircraft used. You should read all the rules in advance. Otherwise, at the airport you will have to pay a significant amount for oversized or extra kilograms. In the absence of permits, the flight may be completely disrupted.

S7 airline hand luggage: Video

You are planning a trip and are thinking about buying air tickets, or have already purchased air tickets and are clarifying information about baggage and hand luggage - Avianiti will briefly tell you what to look for and what the requirements for baggage transportation are.

S7 Airlines baggage requirements depend on air ticket fares. When purchasing air tickets, carefully look at the tariff: the airline indicates what baggage is allowed to be carried for free. Typically these are items for the cabin (hand luggage) weighing up to 10 kg and one piece of checked baggage weighing up to 23 kg.

Certain benefits are provided to customers who own S7 Priority program cards - the airline allows additional baggage to be carried free of charge. This is either increased luggage weight or a free second seat.

The cost of S7 Airlines tickets includes the transportation of hand luggage and baggage checked into the aircraft's luggage compartment. If the amount of baggage exceeds the allowed free volume, the passenger must pay for it. This can be done through the airline’s website, by calling the call center or at the airport when checking in for a flight.

The cost of excess baggage, tariffs in Russia, prices are indicated in rubles.

Excess baggage costs, tariffs for European flights, prices are in euros.

Prices for additional baggage are indicated on the official website of S7 Airlines; information about the cost of baggage will be provided at the carrier’s free call center.

Carry-on baggage requirements

Even the baggage-free fare for S7 Airlines tickets includes the carriage of hand luggage in the cabin. A passenger is allowed to carry one piece free of charge: a bag, a backpack, a box, a package. Hand luggage must weigh up to 10 kg and be no more than 115 cm in the sum of three dimensions (55x40x20 cm).

Federal Aviation Regulations have approved a list of items permitted for transportation in the cabin of an aircraft. It is better not to put these items in the luggage compartment.

If you plan to transport liquids in your hand luggage, then remember that the permitted container volume is up to 100 ml, the maximum volume of liquids in different packages is no more than 1 liter per passenger. Liquids include drinks, perfumes, liquid cosmetics and toothpaste.

Checked baggage requirements

In the luggage compartment of an S7 Airlines aircraft, you are allowed to carry free one piece of baggage weighing no more than 23 kg and with dimensions no more than 203 cm in the sum of three dimensions (length + width + height). Only in the baggage-free airfare, basic economy is not included in the price of baggage.

The airline recommends that passengers do not carry documents, valuables, money, or computers in their luggage. S7 Airlines prohibits combining two luggage in different packages into one: it is not allowed to wrap two suitcases with film and check them in as one piece of luggage.

Transporting animals on an airplane

S7 Airlines carries pets: dogs, cats, birds in hand luggage or in the luggage compartment. Transportation of other types of animals must be registered as cargo. You must pay for the flight of the animal; the cost depends on the weight and size of the animal, as well as the flight. You can arrange transportation of an animal by plane only through the airline's sales offices; this service is not available on the official website.

The animal will need a veterinary certificate, veterinary passport, container or cage. No later than 48 hours before departure, you must call the airline and make a request to transport your pet. It is better to notify the airline about the flight of an animal when booking air tickets.

An animal is allowed to be taken into the cabin if its weight together with the container does not exceed 10 kg, and the container itself (or carrying bag) is no more than 115 cm in three dimensions; it is important that the height is no more than 20 cm. You must visit the service at the airport veterinary control and check the documents for transporting the animal, so it is better to arrive in advance.

Transportation of skis and snowboards

During the winter season, S7 Airlines transports ski equipment or snowboards in covers in the luggage compartment free of charge. The weight of the equipment should not exceed 23 kg, and the dimensions should not exceed 203 cm. Since this offer is seasonal, we recommend that you check with the airline about the conditions for transporting skis or snowboards when booking air tickets.

Damage to luggage

If at the airport, when receiving your luggage, you see that it is damaged or some items are missing, do not leave the baggage claim area. Contact the airport staff and, with their help, draw up a report of damage to your luggage (commercial report, PIR). Next, you need to contact the airline and provide documents: a signed damage report, boarding pass and luggage tag.

Lost luggage

If you do not find your luggage on the transport belt, contact the airport staff, they will draw up the relevant documents and the airline will deliver your luggage to you later. In addition, S7 Airlines recommends that passengers register in the World Tracer international system and monitor their luggage.

Avianiti searches for cheap air tickets by comparing their prices with offers from other airlines and ticket agencies. You can select a fare with baggage included when booking your flight tickets.

The note is written on the basis of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) and will help to better understand the rules of Russian airlines and the rights of passengers. New FAPs were updated last year and determine the minimum weight of hand luggage and baggage, their dimensions, as well as what items of baggage can be carried free of charge on board Russian airlines.

S7 Airline is a Russian air carrier founded in 1992. Based at Tolmachevo Airport (Novosibirsk). Until 2006 it was called “Sibir”, but then a serious rebranding was carried out. Operates regular and charter flights both within Russia and abroad.

How much hand luggage does the S7 allow you to carry, and what are the content restrictions?

Dimensions

Carry-on baggage s7 (or rather, each piece) cannot be larger than 55x40x20 centimeters. In this case, this is absolutely not a whim of the airline, but a restriction dictated by the fact that the passenger must place the item (bag, backpack, etc.) on a lockable shelf near the ceiling, or under the seat in front (of his choice). But the space there is not unlimited - after all, for example, in the Airbus A320 up to 180 people can fly at the same time, and there must be enough space for their luggage.

S7 aircraft

Note! In some seats (near emergency exits, in the front row) you cannot put things under the seat. Therefore, they need to be placed (at least during takeoff and landing) only on a special shelf overhead.

How is the size of hand luggage controlled?

As a rule, airline employees do not approach passengers at the airport with tape measures - this is not necessary. There are special template frames installed near the racks. If an item (suitcase, backpack, etc.) fits in such a frame, it can be carried free of charge.

The passenger can carry out the appropriate checks independently, even before check-in. At the same time, it is not at all a fact that everyone flying will have to undergo such a procedure. Often the dimensions are assessed visually, but if they already raise suspicion (for example, a suitcase or backpack is clearly larger than 55x40x20), then they may ask you to put the item in a frame to check the fit.

Weight

According to the rules, one piece of hand luggage carried on an S7 airline aircraft cannot weigh more than 10 kg (for economy class fares - “Economy Basic” and “Economy Flexible”) or 15 kg (for business class fares - “Business Basic”) " and "Business Flexible").

Number of seats

In hand luggage - 1 piece for economy class and 2 pieces for business class.

Size check area for hand luggage S7

What can you carry in hand luggage in addition to the specified allowance?

The S7 company rules, consistent with current legislation, define the following list:

  • a handbag, backpack or briefcase, the weight of which does not exceed 5 kg, and the dimensions (the sum of three dimensions) - 75 cm;
  • outerwear (type not regulated);
  • a bouquet of flowers (its size and weight are not specified);
  • suit in a suitcase;
  • goods purchased in duty-free shops at the airport of departure (including liquids), placed in a sealed bag with a receipt attached to it. At the same time, the overall dimensions of such a package in the sum of three dimensions cannot exceed 75 cm, and the weight - 3 kg.
  • crutches, canes, walkers, rollators, folding wheelchairs and other similar devices used by a passenger with limited mobility. During the flight, he will need to put such an item in a lockable luggage rack (under the ceiling), or put it under a seat that is one row ahead;
  • medications or diet foods. The quantity is determined by the passenger’s needs during the flight;
  • a cradle, a car seat and other devices for a child under two years old, as well as a stroller or a child car seat for a child under 11 years old, if the dimensions of such an item do not exceed 55x40x20 cm and they can be placed on a shelf above the seat, or on floor, under the seat in front.

Stroller

Note! Strollers, seats, cradles and other restraint systems can be taken on a plane free of charge only if the child for whom they are intended is traveling on the same flight. In the case when the stroller is transported without a child, the standard requirements for carry-on luggage and baggage apply to its transportation.

Transportation of liquids

Liquid in this context refers not only to a substance in a liquid state. These include objects (including food) whose consistency is pasty or creamy. These are sauces, creams, pastes, gels, aerosols, canned food and much more. That is why, for example, you can freely carry hard cheese in your hand luggage, but if the variety is soft (Camembert, Brie, ricotta, mozzarella, feta and others), appropriate restrictions are imposed on it. Or you can put olives “by themselves” in your hand luggage, but if the package contains oil or other liquid in addition to them, then the rules below come into force. The same applies to cosmetics.

So, liquids can be carried in hand luggage, but subject to certain requirements.

  1. The volume of each container cannot be more than 100 ml. That is, if the toothpaste is in a 125 ml tube, airport security staff will most likely take it away at the control;

Note! The packaging does not have to be original. This will not work with an aerosol deodorant or shaving gel due to the pressure inside the container, but, for example, shampoo can be easily poured into a container of the approved size (up to 100 ml inclusive).

  1. Containers must be placed in a transparent bag with a zipper (usually a zipper is used). Its volume is also limited - it cannot be more than 1 liter;
  2. If a passenger does not have such a package, it is damaged (torn) or does not meet the requirements, then an airport employee can issue it free of charge, or offer to purchase it for a small amount.
  3. This package must be removed from the main piece of hand luggage (bag, backpack, etc.) and placed separately on the security belt for scanning.

Bag for packing liquids in hand luggage

Additional Information! Baby food (if the passenger is traveling with a child) is not subject to the 100 ml limit per container. But there is no need to take water - the flight attendant will bring it upon request.

What cannot be carried as hand luggage:

  • piercing objects. Any, without exceptions. Even such harmless, at first glance, as manicure scissors or a nail file will be confiscated. However, plastic disposable knives and forks without pointed ends are permitted;
  • toxic objects, as well as poisons;
  • explosives and flammable substances;
  • corrosive, oxidizing substances;
  • weapons (separate requirements apply to their transportation);
  • radioactive items;
  • other things that the security officer deems dangerous.

The general criterion in this case is clear - you cannot take on board anything that can injure or kill other passengers or crew members, or carry out a terrorist attack on board (make an explosive device, etc.). Hence the very strict requirements for liquids, which many passengers perceive with hostility. But in the modern world, additional precautions are never superfluous.

What cannot be carried in hand luggage

Exceeding the size and quantity of hand luggage

S7 Airlines cannot arrange for excess carry-on baggage, even for extra money. Anything unnecessary (that is, that which does not fit into the established standards) must be checked in as baggage. Depending on the tariff, an additional fee may be charged for this - the cost varies accordingly. Therefore, the passenger is recommended, even when purchasing a ticket (especially for a basic, baggage-free fare), to decide whether in a particular case it is possible to meet the requirements for the weight and size of hand luggage, or whether he should immediately purchase additional luggage and be calm. After all, according to S7 tariffs, the fee for luggage at the airport is much more than directly in the process of purchasing an air ticket. Therefore, trying to save a relatively small amount can be costly in practice.

On a note! S7 Airlines has fairly strict requirements for passengers' carry-on luggage. This follows from the fact that even those who bought a ticket at the cheapest fare are allowed to take a bag, backpack, or other item weighing 10 kg into the cabin. While some competitors have already reduced this threshold to the minimum permitted by law 5 kg.

For this reason, the number of those who choose “Economy Basic” is increasing. After all, with certain tricks, a suitcase or backpack 55x40x20 is quite enough for a vacation lasting a week or two, or even more. There were no new additions (changes, restrictions, etc.) in 2018, and it is unknown whether there will be any.

Restrictions on the contents of hand luggage are not imposed by the airline. They are established by international aviation regulatory authorities, and these rules are followed at every airport.

And carry-on luggage is transported in accordance with Federal Air Transportation Regulations, but with some nuances that a potential passenger should be aware of.

In order not to get into trouble when traveling with S7 Airlines, you need to know the rules for carrying baggage and hand luggage on board Siberian Airlines: baggage allowances, how much you can carry for free, what size, weight and dimensions baggage and hand luggage should have.

Paid extra baggage

Additional baggage is those items and things that you want to take with you, but they already exceed the free baggage allowance established by the company. In this case, you need to, as they say, buy additional luggage.

How to do it? There are three options:

  • buy using the "My Bookings" section of the airline's website (payment by credit card, confirmation of purchase - notification by email)
  • call the contact center tel. 8 800 700 0707 and order the service of purchasing additional luggage
  • book additional luggage with the help of an operator (or write in chat)
  • pay at the airport, at S7 airline ticket offices

How much additional baggage can you take on board an S7 aircraft?

There is also a dependence on the tariff. If a ticket has not yet been purchased, then in accordance with different types of fares you can buy different amounts (weight) of additional baggage.

Basic economy rate: you can buy 1 or 2 more bags weighing 23 kg each

The economy fare is flexible: you can purchase another 27 kg in addition to the weight of baggage required for transportation according to the tariff (1 piece 23 kg). This way you will get one large bag weighing up to 50 kg. And also + buy 1 or 2 bags weighing up to 23 kg each. The maximum total weight of baggage at this rate, which can be carried by one passenger, is 96 kg.

How much does paid luggage cost: tariffs

The cost (price) of additional baggage depends on the flight distance and direction (within the conventional zone - across Russia, or to Europe, or to long-distance destinations - Siberia, the Far East, Central Asia, etc.).

In addition, additional baggage may be excess baggage, that is, one that does not fit into the transportation standards in terms of dimensions (dimensions) or weight. There will be an additional premium to existing prices.

Restrictions on carrying liquids in hand luggage

New safety regulations have been established to protect passengers from risks associated with the possible use of liquid explosives.

If your itinerary includes a connecting flight, remember that these rules will apply to you at the transfer airport.

Items purchased from duty-free shops can be brought on board in a sealed bag. In addition, it is necessary to keep a receipt confirming the fact of purchase of such goods. The check must be dated to coincide with the departure date. The package is sealed directly at the place of purchase of the goods.
