The actual baggage allowance can differ according to the fare booked.

Below you will find an indication of our general baggage rules per travel class and for Miles&More members, Hon Circle, Senator and Gold Star Alliance.

AIR DOLOMITI FARES (conditions for bookings from 1st January 2020)

Sizes

* Each suitcase may measure max. 158 cm (width + height + depth).
** Cabin bags may measure max. 115 cm (width + height + depth).

Our partners may have different baggage rules. If part of your journey is with another airline, please check their baggage rules.

If you have purchased a Light fare that does not include hold luggage, you have the option of adding luggage to your reservation directly online, when booking your flight ticket or in a second moment during the "Manage booking" section or by calling the Air Dolomiti Call Center. You get the best rates if you pay up to 8 days before flight departure – or you may pay for your extra luggage at a higher rate at the airport.

You may add extra bags for adults and children, except infants (children under two). This ancillary service is not refundable.

For all flights within Europe (e.g. Munich-Venice or Frankfurt-Verona) and only if flying on an Air Dolomiti Light fare ticket (that does not include hold luggage) starting from 3 November 2020 below fares will be applicable:

For all flights within Italy (e.g. Florence-Catania) and only if flying on an Air Dolomiti Light fare ticket (that does not include hold luggage), starting from 3 November 2020 below fares will be applicable:

For all flights with a fare ticket that includes hold luggage (e.g. Economy Classic, Economy Flex):

Fees are per leg for each passenger. Each extra bag can be up to the same size and weight as a standard checked bag. If at the airport your luggage exceeds the standard allowance either in weight and dimension, a surcharge may be applied. Bags over 32kg cannot be checked in.

If the extra baggage fare is paid for at the airport, an extra fee may be applicable. 

Every piece of hand luggage that complies with the rules (dims max 55x40x23cm and max 8kg) can now be checked in free of charge – even if you have booked a Light fare. Please deliver your handbag at the check-in counter.
This also applies to transit passengers in Germany who pass through security checks.

Please consult our Corona-Decrees and regulations section for the current baggage regulations.

****

The maximum weight for hand baggage is 8kg and dimensions for carry-on baggage: max 55x40x20cm.
For Economy Class fares only one item is included; the hand baggage in Business class fares includes two pieces of carry-on baggage up to 8 kg each.

Please visit our baggage regulations area for detailed information.

Important information for the passengers flying to the United States: effective from 30th June 2018 powder-like substances over 12 oz. / 350 mL should be placed in checked bags.
Powders over 12 oz. / 350 mL in carry-on bags may be prohibited.

Each liquid you carry in your hand baggage must be in its own container of no more than 100 ml. All liquids must be placed in a transparent, re-sealable plastic bag with a total volume of no more than 1 litre. One transparent plastic bag may be taken per person.

However, you may always bring:
•    Baby food to be consumed during the flight
•    Medicines to be taken during the flight, provided you have a prescription or attending physician's statement
•    Special diet foods to be consumed during the flight

If your trip includes a transfer with a connecting flight, your check-in baggage will usually be sent to your final destination. The baggage claim tag that you receive when dropping off your baggage always states your bag’s final destination.

When transferring, you only need to collect your baggage and check it in again for your connecting flight, if:
•    You have purchased 2 or more tickets from different airlines that have dissimilar conditions
•    You arrive at one airport and your connecting flight departs from another airport 
•    Your transfer lasts longer than 12 hours or your next flight departs the next day.

Baggage allowances and policies can vary from airline to airline. If your journey includes a flight with an airline other than Air Dolomiti, your checked baggage allowance may be different:

•    If your entire journey is with another airline, their checked baggage allowance will apply. For example, if you fly Lufthansa from Milan Malpensa to Munich, Lufthansa’s baggage policy applies, even if the flight is operated by Air Dolomiti, 
•    If your journey includes connecting flights with more than one airline, the checked baggage policy of the airline that operates the longer leg will apply. For example, if you fly with Lufthansa from New York to Munich and connect onto Air Dolomiti to Venice, the leg with Lufthansa is longer and their baggage policy applies to the whole journey.

For safety and security reasons, certain items are prohibited either in checked baggage or in your carry-on baggage.
The list of forbidden items in accordance with EU Directive 2015/1998 can be found here.

For further information about prohibited items, carriage of electronic cigarettes and portable electronic devices (e.g. Hoverboards), please consult the dangerous goods section.

Should your baggage be misplaced report its loss to the airport Lost & Found Office on arrival. The staff will open a baggage irregularity file. You will be given a Property Irregularity Report (PIR), and you may check for any updates about the tracing of your baggage using its reference number (ex.

Should you find out on arrival that your baggage has been damaged, please report the damage on arrival at the airport Lost & Found Office.
The staff will open a baggage irregularity file. You will be given a Damaged Property Report (DPR) and all the necessary instructions.

Folding strollers, wheelchairs and crutches can be taken to the side of the aircraft for free thanks to the “Delivery at Aircraft” (DAA) procedure, which can be requested by passengers at the check-in desks or at the gate.
In the case of connecting flights, passengers must specify if they wish to retrieve the items at the transit airport. The items will be placed in the hold and given back at the side of the aircraft or at baggage reclaim.
