Get To Know Everything About Thomson Airways Baggage Allowance And Fees Below:

Thomson Carry-On Allowance

TUI Airways, or Thomson, will accept one check-in bag for each person. Thomson has a maximum size dimension set at 93 x 73 x 43 cm (36.6 x 28.7 x 16.9 inches). The baggage must be of such a size to fit in the overhead compartment or under the seat in front of you. In addition, passengers are permitted to carry one piece of cabin luggage of smaller size like handbags, laptops, or small backpacks, not larger than 40 x 30 x 15 cm (15.7 x 11.8 x 5.9 inches).

TUI advises to pack lightly and abide by cabin baggage security regulations. Cabin baggage of passengers who travel on TUI Airways must also be taken into account; cabin baggage might incur the weight limit at the hands of the airline, which is 10 kg (22 lbs). It would require checking in if it exceeds that weight.

Checked Baggage Allowance

TUI Airways checked baggage allowance varies according to the route as well as the class of fare. For most long-haul flights, one free checked bag is allowed. For short-haul flights, their rules usually apply to this. The standard maximum checked weight of luggage should not exceed 23 kg (50 lbs) per bag on most economy fares.

Excess or overweight baggage attracts a fee:

• 1st Checked Bag: Included free with long-haul flights; others charge extra.
• 2nd Checked Bag: Fees vary, usually between £30 and £50 per bag, as do the ones depending on the type of route taken and the type of ticket fare.
• Overweight Bags: A fee is included if a checked bag is overweight; depends on how overweight the bag is, and fees can range from £50 to £100.

Each checked bag cannot exceed a maximum linear dimension of 158 cm (62 inches), that is, length plus width plus height.

Sporting Equipment and Musical Instruments

Sporting equipment can be carried as checked baggage. TUI Airways accepts skis, snowboards, golf clubs, bicycles, and surfboards, among others. However, there are some conditions:

• Length Limits: No sport equipment can reach the maximum length of 3 m (118 inches).
• Weight Limitations: Standard restrictions apply; an extra charge will be charged in case your sports equipment weighs more than 23 kg / 50 lbs.
• Handling Charges: There are handling charges for things like bicycles and firearms, which should be about £50.

Passengers must consult specific regulations regarding the packing of bags and any charges that may accompany luggage prior to traveling with sports equipment.

Musical Instruments

Musical instruments are also allowed on TUI Airways flights but only if they meet the following requirements:

• Instruments that fall within the cabin baggage dimensions can be taken onboard as a personal item. Those larger instruments that are more than the size of the overhead compartment or under seat must be checked in case to be transported safely. 

• Passengers must loosen the strings on stringed instruments before flying in order to minimize the amount of damage pressure would cause during flight.

The cabin crew will provide space onboard for larger instruments if there is available space. This, however, is up to availability and discretion on the part of the crew.
