Personal items
In addition to the one carry-on item, you may bring free-of-charge the below items:

  • one small personal article such as a briefcase, purse, day planner, small laptop computer, camera case, compact disk player or similar sized personal entertainment item
  • personal aid devices such as wheelchairs, braces, canes, crutches, prosthetic devices and walking sticks, provided passenger is dependent on them
  • one infant article such as a small collapsible stroller, a diaper bag or a government approved child seat (larger strollers can be checked in the jet-way prior to boarding the aircraft)
  • Note: Most knives are not allowed past the security checkpoint (including, but not limited to, pocket knives, folding or retractable blades regardless of blade length or composition, box cutters, X-Acto knives, scissors with a pointed tip, straight razors, Leather-man or Swiss Army Knives). Plastic and round-bladed (not serrated) knives are permitted in carry-on baggage.

    • Battery operated personal air-purifying devices are prohibited onboard all flights.

    Laptop computers must be removed from their cases and placed on the baggage belt at the security checkpoint.

    Additional carry-on Baggage restrictions may apply on certain flights.

    Your name and address must be on the outside of your baggage. Nametags are available at all airport baggage check-in locations if you forget. We also recommend that you place your name and address on the inside of the bag.

    Please claim your baggage immediately upon arrival at destination airport.

    *  Most airlines allow 2 pieces of check-in luggage of the size mentioned above.  However, the motor-coaches have limited baggage space underneath the vehicles and the hotels abroad allow for 1 piece of baggage handling per passenger in their pricing.  If anyone needs to take and additional bag, please contact us for additional charges for the handling of this luggage abroad. Thank you.
