Air Canada Fishing Rod Fee 2023
Standard Checked Baggage Fees Apply for Fishing Equipment.
The Fishing Equipment (Rod Case + Tackle Box) will count as ONE piece of regular checked baggage, even if packed separately.
The Oversize Baggage Fee will be waived for the Fishing Rod Case.
Overweight Fees may still apply if exceeding 23kg / 50 lbs.
All other additional checked baggage rules apply.
Packing instructions
The fishing rod(s) must be packaged in a rigid and/or hard shell container specifically designed for shipping.
If otherwise packaged, items may be refused for carriage. Air Canada is not liable if and to the extent that any damage results from the inherent defect, quality or vice of the baggage.
We recommend packing your fishing rods into a hard shell / rigid case such as the Plano Airliner Telescoping Rod Case for maximum protection.
