About This Service

Baggage Allowance & Extra Weight Request

Most airlines include a standard free baggage allowance with your ticket — typically 1–2 checked bags or a set weight limit (e.g. 23 kg / 50 lbs per bag). If you need to carry more, you have two options: pre-purchase additional baggage before travel, or pay the excess fee at the airport check-in counter.

Pre-purchasing is always significantly cheaper — airport excess baggage fees are often 2–4 times the advance purchase price. SureFlight Booking coordinates directly with the airline's reservations or baggage team to add extra allowance to your booking.

What SureFlight Booking Handles

Whether you need an extra bag, more weight on existing bags, or special item transport (sports equipment, musical instruments, medical devices), SureFlight Booking will coordinate with the airline and confirm the addition. SureFlight Booking will communicate your request with the respective airline on your behalf. Regardless of any circumstances, the final decision regarding Baggage Addition will be from the Airlines. Our support team requires a minimum of 24 hours to act upon your raised request.

Pre-Buy & Save — Don't Pay at the Airport

Airport excess baggage fees average $100–$200 per bag. Pre-purchasing through SureFlight Booking typically costs $30–$70 per bag depending on route and airline — a saving of up to 60% on the spot price.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions — Baggage Addition

How do I add extra baggage to my flight booking?

Fill in the form on this page or WhatsApp/call SureFlight Booking with your booking reference (PNR), airline name, the baggage weight or number of extra bags needed, and your travel dates. We will confirm the cost with the airline and add the baggage to your booking once you approve the charges.

Is it cheaper to pre-buy extra baggage or pay at the airport?

Pre-purchasing is almost always significantly cheaper. Airport excess baggage fees can be $100–$200 or more per bag, while pre-purchasing typically costs $30–$70 per bag depending on the airline and route. We strongly recommend arranging extra baggage before departure to save money and avoid check-in delays.

What is the maximum weight per checked bag?

Standard checked bags are typically limited to 23 kg (50 lbs). You can upgrade to a 32 kg (70 lbs) allowance on most airlines by pre-purchasing a weight upgrade. Bags weighing over 32 kg are generally not accepted and must be re-packed. SureFlight Booking will confirm the maximum limits for your specific airline and route.

Can I add baggage for a return trip too?

Yes. You can add extra baggage for one-way or round-trip journeys. When requesting, specify whether you need the additional allowance for your outbound flight, return flight, or both. SureFlight Booking will add the baggage to each leg of your journey separately in the booking system.

Can I add baggage for multiple passengers on the same booking?

Yes. You can request extra baggage for all passengers on the same booking or for specific named passengers only. When submitting your request, specify the name(s) of the passengers who require additional baggage and SureFlight Booking will add it accordingly.

How far in advance should I add extra baggage?

Our team requires a minimum of 24 hours to process your request. For the best prices, we recommend adding extra baggage at least 3–7 days before departure — airline pre-purchase prices tend to increase as departure approaches. Some airlines close online baggage purchases 24 hours before departure.
