Good to know

  • The page says "within 115 cm in total OR 55 x 40 x 20 cm". Our checker applies both, which is the stricter reading. source

Need more allowance? Add the bag online, before the airport

Many airlines charge more at the airport or gate than when you add a bag online. Flair's own page, for example, lists a carry-on at $49–$109 when booking but $99–$154 at the airport gate (CAD, or USD for US-originating trips). Check your airline's current price on its official site:

Links go to each airline's official page. We haven't verified direct manage-booking links yet, so we link to the official baggage page.
