The conditions for free transport of baggage are printed on the ticket and differences are found according to the special conditions outlined by the purchased fare, as well as the origin and destination of the flight, which determine whether the "weight system" or "piece system" will be applied.
If no condition is specified, in general terms:
With the "weight system", 30 Kg. are allowed in Business Class and 20Kg. are allowed in Tourist Class, nevertheless, read the conditions printed on your ticket regarding the weight limit that the fare category permits.
If the "piece system" is applied, in your ticket it is indicated that the piece concept applies, which normally means that you are allowed a baggage weight limit of 64 Kg., distributed among 2 pieces, each with a 32 Kg. weight limit.

Consequently, in the case that any suitcase exceeds this weight, the suitcase should be repacked by using, if necessary, additional suitcases or travel bags.
In the case that a connecting flight is being made with another company, consult the weight limit that is permitted, since it might differ from the limit permitted by Swiftair.
