Hand Luggage on Jetstream 41 Flights
Due to the airplane's size limits, only small pieces of cabin baggage which can be stowed under a single seat in front may be taken on board. If you have a larger piece of hand luggage, you will be asked to "gate-check" it when boarding the flight, meaning it will be placed into the luggage hold for the duration of the flight, and you will not have access to your hand luggage during the flight. All gate-checked bags will be returned to you outside the aircraft immediately upon disembarkation. Passengers are advised to remove fragile/valuable items to be taken on board.

Items which may be considered dangerous, such as, toy guns, kitchen knives, swords, spear guns, knitting needles and sharp items, such as nail scissors and clippers, tweezers, penknives etc. are not permitted in hand baggage.

Eastern Airways Overweight Baggage Fee 2023 - Extra Bag Fee - Oversize Baggage

Passengers on Eastern Airways may purchase an additional bag for a fee of 30 GBP if buying online before the airport check-in opens. If you show up at the airport and need to add a bag to your reservation, it will cost you 50 GBP.

The weight of your extra bag depends on the ticket type you are flying on. For "Value" and "Standard" fare tickets, your bag has a weight limit of 15 Kg. For "Flexible" fare tickets, your bag may weigh up to 23 kg.

Excess weight is charged on a Per Kilogram basis. The cost of excess weight on Eastern Airways is 10 GBP per KG. Overweight bags are limited to a maximum of 32 KG for health and safety reasons. In either case, once you are at the point of a bag weighing close to 32 Kg, it is cheaper to simply purchase an additional baggage allowance than to pay the equivalent Per KG excess weight fees.
