Austrian Airlines Excess Baggage

If your checked baggage exceeds the allowable weight limit, or exceeds the total size restriction of 158cm, excess baggage charges will be applied depending on your flight route. Please visit the Austrian Airlines website directly for information on these charges.

Pieces of checked baggage that exceed the maximum weight allowance of 32kg will not be accepted at check-in. Pieces of checked baggage exceeding the maximum total dimensions of 158cm may be considered for special transport. However, you will need to notify Austrian Airlines customer support about such items in advance of your travel.

Austrian Airlines Sports Equipment and Special Baggage

Austrian Airlines permit a wide range of sporting equipment and special baggage on flights. So long as the baggage allowance shown on your ticket is not exceed either in terms of the number of items or weight, these items can be carried without a surcharge. However, some items may be considered as oversized or overweight items. As such, charges may apply. Please visit the Austrian Airlines website for more information.
