Blue Air

Each airline has its own baggage policy. At Blue Air, passengers could take on board one hand baggage without any additional baggage fees. The hand luggage could not exceed 10 kg in weight and 55 x 40 x 20 cm in size.

Passengers could have up to 4 pieces of checked-in luggage, each piece could not exceed 32 kg in weight and 100 x 80 x 30 cm in size. The acceptable weight depended on the selected booking class (20 kg for the Classic travel class and 32 kg for the Premium travel class).

There were 3 booking classes at Blue Air: Light, Classic and Premium. All these classes had free check-in.

Light class was dedicated to people who didn't want to pay too much for the trip. There was one hand baggage included in the ticket price.

The Premium class was related to a larger checked-in baggage (32kg). Passengers could choose their seat, receive free meals on most routes and they didn't have to pay for booking changes.

Blue Air offered online check-in on almost every route. However, there were some exceptions, such as Lisbon, Palma de Mallorca or Tel Aviv.
