Checked baggage

Number of baggage items allowed, weight limit, authorized content, and dangerous goods... Find out all you need to know about preparing your checked baggage in order to check in with ease.

Did you know? Since March 28, 2010*, the baggage transport rules for Air France flights are simpler and more beneficial to passengers: depending on your travel class, check 1, 2, or 3 baggage items weighing 23 kg or less each at no extra charge!

* If you purchased your ticket before March 28, 2010, the baggage allowance in effect is the one indicated on your Itinerary receipt.

Baggage allowance indicates the number of baggage items that you can transport in the hold at no extra charge. Using our calculator, you can check how many baggage items you may bring on your next flight. Would you like to take more?

Calculate your baggage allowance

Each baggage item must weigh 23 kg/50 lb* or less and measure less than 158 cm/62 in. (height + length + width). 
If you exceed the authorized size or weight, or wish to bring an extra baggage item, you will need to purchase additional baggage allowance when checking in.
Note: for baggage weighing more than 32 kg/70 lb., prior authorization is required.

* Except for trips with first flight originating in Brazil. In this case, 2 checked baggage items of 32 kg each are allowed without charge in all travel classes.
Please note: for flights to and from Corsica, you may transport multiple baggage items as long as they do not exceed 23 kg/50 lb in total.

Your baggage allowance depends on your destination and travel class. These regulations apply to flights operated by AIR FRANCE and KLM. For code-sharing flights, other rules imposed by the airline operating the flight may apply. To find out how many baggage items you can bring free of charge, as well as the cost of an additional baggage allowance, complete the fields below:
