VivaAerobus Overweight Baggage Fee 2023 - Extra Bag Fee - Oversize Baggage
VivaAerobus charges extra fees for overweight, oversize, and excess baggage. These fees can be pre-paid at a discounted rate ahead of time either online or through their call center - if not, you'll have to pay the higher rate at the airport. It is much cheaper to pre-purchase your excess baggage online during time of booking, rather than adding it later to your booking, or at the airport (most expensive), so it is best to plan ahead.
VivaAerobus does offer the possibility to purchase a weight allowance increase, as opposed to purchasing extra bags, so you'll have to decide what is most economical for you depending on the items you are bringing.
Be sure to note that VivaAerobus charges these extra bag fees for every Segment of flight, so if you are on a connecting flight, it is possible that you will be charged 2x the Excess Baggage fees. If you're on a connecting flight with both an International and Domestic segment, you will be charged both the International and Domestic excess bag fees.
