Musical Instruments
Small musical instruments can be taken on board in place of your carry-on baggage on GOL Airlines.
The checked baggage allowance on GOL Airlines depends on your fare type, with the lowest fare types (Promo and Light) not including any free checked baggage, meaning that you must pay for every checked bag. Other fares such as Plus, Max, and Premium Economy include either 1 or 2 free checked bags.
If you do not have any free checked baggage, you can purchase a baggage allowance before your flight. It is much cheaper to purchase it ahead of time paying online rather than at the airport at check-in.
All checked luggage on GOL Airlines must weigh less than 23 kg / 50 lbs, and suitcases are limited in size to 50 x 28 x 80 cm.
If you have already bought your ticket, but you haven't added any checked luggage to your flight, you can still do so by going to "My Reservations" on the GOL Airlines website and add your luggage there. It is much cheaper to do this as soon as possible, because the prices of checked luggage go up at 48 hours before departure.
