flybe Baggage Policy

Passengers travelling with flybe are welcome to bring:


Carry-on Baggage

flybe Lite - the lowest priced, flight-only fare - automatically includes one small cabin bag measuring up to 55cm x 36cm x 20cm and weighing up to 7kgs. This should be an item such as a handbag, tote bag, laptop bag, briefcase or backpack that can fit under the seat in front you.

To make sure everyone can enjoy a comfortable and safe flight with flybe, it’s important to check the size and weight of your cabin bag before you travel.

If your cabin bag is too big or too heavy, it will need to travel in the aircraft hold and you will be charged the appropriate fee at the gate. You will need to remove any important items such medication or ID, as you won’t be able to access your bag again until you collect it from baggage reclaim on arrival.

Checked Baggage Allowance

Hold bags are not automatically included. When you purchase a flybe Lite fare, you can choose to add one of flybe bundles or you can just add bags to your booking:

The flybe Smart bundle comes with 15kgs hold luggage. See your ticket types for more details on official website.

The flybe Plus bundle comes with 23kgs hold baggage included, and as a bonus, you have the option to swap this for the Valet bag service at the airport free of charge.

A single hold bag should weigh no more than 32kg.

flybe Smart and flybe Plus bundles can only be added at the time of booking. However, if you’re planning to add just bags or seat selection individually, you can do so during your initial booking or any time afterwards, right up to before you check in. Simply add and pay for additional bags and seat selection online.

Any passenger can purchase and carry up to two hold bags with the maximum combined weight of 46kgs.

Exceed Baggage

If your hold baggage exceeds the weight purchased, flybe will apply an excess baggage charge at the airport. For example, if you purchase a 15kg bag, but it weighs 17kg when you present it at the airport, an additional charge will be applied at the rate of £10 per kg.

This applies to single bags weighing more than the amount purchased.
