Baggage fees

No reliable fixed price is listed here. Check your booking for the cost of adding a bag; an unlisted price does not mean it is free.

Official baggage policy
How to use this policy

Check cabin bag dimensions, weight and personal-item limits separately. A bag has to pass every published limit at once; being under the length and width limit does not help if the depth, weight, or fare-specific allowance is tighter.

Editorial signal only. Measure the packed bag and verify the operating carrier's rule.

Air Transat liquids policy

Follow departure and transfer airport security rules. For ordinary Canadian CATSA screening, use containers no larger than 100 ml/100 g in one clear resealable 1-litre bag; medical and infant-feeding exceptions are separate.
