International Baggage Rules

Eurowings primarily operates short/medium-haul flights within Europe and to North Africa/Middle East. Baggage rules are generally consistent across its network, based on the fare class (BASIC, SMART, BIZclass) rather than destination.

Special Items

Sports Equipment

Skis/snowboards: from $32 (30 EUR). Other sports equipment (golf, bicycles, surfboards): from $54 (50 EUR). Max weight 32 kg per item. Free if paying with a Eurowings credit card on EW flights.

Musical Instruments

Small instruments (up to 125 cm and 8 kg) allowed as carry-on instead of a large cabin bag. Larger instruments (e.g., guitars) require an extra seat (max 75 kg, 155x42x15 cm). Double bass must be checked in a hard case.
