Animals and Birds

So, we already know that the Ural Airlines have set the baggage rate acceptable. Birds and animals can be transported here only when accompanied by a traveler and with a certificate of breeding value and an international veterinary certificate. Representatives of the fauna are not included in the norms of free baggage freight. Their transportation is paid according to the actual weight of the animal along with the weight of the container for moving at the cost of excess luggage.

The price of baggage that exceeds the established standards depends on the class of service and the direction of the flight. You can clarify the tariff on the official website of the company, when booking or in the information service

Only the passenger is responsible for the condition of the transported animal. The pet needs to be watered and fed two hours before departure. If the animal will be in the cargo hold during the journey, the flight attendant must be warned about this. Then experts will check the heating and temperature of the cargo compartment.

Pets can only be transported in the airliner in economy class. This is prohibited in business class. The animal must be placed in a container with dimensions of 25x35x45 cm. The weight of the container with a pet should not exceed 8 kg. You need to remember these rules:

  • the number of dogs transported in the cabin must not exceed two.

Cultural values

To export and import cultural treasures, you need to submit an application to Rossvyazokhrankultura with copies of all necessary papers. Next, you will need to undergo a paid examination and obtain permission to export cultural pearls. If you are importing such values, you need to have papers confirming their origin and value.

I would like to add that all unclaimed trunks are saved for free within 48 hours at the arrival airport. Registration, booking and purchase are executed using the Amadeus-Altea platform. Good weather for you, dear travelers!

Airlines usually use three criteria for determining the baggage allowance: quantity (place), permissible weight and size.

The rate can be either paid or free. It depends on the fare the passenger is flying.

General baggage allowances Ural Airlines establish the following: does not allow the suitcase to exceed 203 cm in 3D... Weight limit 50 kilograms.

Anything larger is recognized as oversized cargo and is paid as cargo.

Hand luggage

In addition to checked baggage, there is one more type - carry-on baggage. This definition includes things that the passenger is allowed to take with him to the cabin for free.

The weight and size of luggage on the plane are also regulated by Ural Airlines. The size is limited as follows: a bag of no more than 115 cm in three dimensions and weighing no more than 10 kg.

There are exceptions for business class passengers. For them, the baggage allowance has been increased to two pieces of 15 kg each. But Ural Airlines still set the same dimensions - 115 cm.

Such restrictions are explained by the peculiarity of the organization of the aircraft cabin space. The bag should fit under the seat or on the top shelf.

It must be such that the passenger is able to independently lift it onto the overhead rack.

Besides along with hand luggage, the passenger has the right to take personal belongings from the limited list.

These are things that he cannot do without in flight (cane, medicines, cradle, baby, diabetic food), as well as valuable, expensive and fragile items - small electronics, a briefcase, a handbag.

Laptops, video cameras and other electronics do not need to be weighed or labeled. It is not subject to the baggage allowance and is not included in the weight of carry-on baggage.

Carry-on baggage rules apply not only to its weight and size, but also to its content. So things that could pose a threat to the safety of the aircraft and its passengers are not allowed into the cabin - anything piercing, cutting, flammable, explosive, toxic and poisonous.

Also large volumes of liquids are prohibited... An exception is alcohol in a sealed bag at the airport of departure airport.

With "Comfort" comfortable

Free baggage allowance depends on the fare the passenger is flying.

For instance, there is absolutely no opportunity to carry things free of charge from those flying with the "Promo" fare... For them, the transportation of bags is only paid.

Economy and Premium tariffs allow free transportation of one suitcase weighing up to 23 kg.

"Business-Light" and "Economy-Light" - 1 suitcase up to 32 kg. "Business" and "Comfort" - 2 suitcases, 32 kg each.

For small passengers - their own rules. From 2 years old to 12 years old, 10 kilograms of free baggage are allowed, including 5 kg of hand luggage. After 12 years - 20 kg, including the same 5 kg of luggage.

There are things that are not included in the free baggage allowance and for which you will have to pay, as for excess. These are vehicles (motorcycles, cars, boats), musical instruments, flowers and seedlings, birds, pets.

As for household appliances, then it can be transported, both free of charge, and as overweight. It depends on the fare the owner is flying and the size of the vehicle.

Ural "Wings"

For its loyal and regular customers, Ural Airlines have come up with a special program, calling it Wings.

Bonus rubles are credited for each regular flight of the company on a special card. The holders of these cards have privileges, including luggage.

So silver "wings" are received as a bonus for loyalty to the company, double the allowable weight of hand luggage, i.e. 20 kg. And the golden "wings" - 35 kg.

Both of them carry sports equipment for 1 piece up to 23 kg free of charge.

  • free overweight up to 32 kilograms;
  • 50% discount for overweight from 33 to 50 kilograms or oversized (over 203 cm in three dimensions);
  • 50% discount for extra baggage.

Holders of gold cards flying economy, 1 piece of baggage weighing 23 kg is received free of charge, and the next - at half price.

Oversized

This is baggage that has exceeded the standard for the number of pieces..

Since the Promo class does not have free baggage at all, starting from one seat (code 1pc) weighing up to 23 kilograms, you will have to pay 2,000 rubles.

If a Promo passenger has two suitcases weighing up to 23, then the surcharge will be 4000 rubles. And so on.

With other international flights, for example, to Europe, it is more expensive - 50 euros for the first suitcase, and 150 euros for the second and subsequent ones.

It turns out it is very unprofitable to fly to far abroad in the Promo class, having a bag with things with you.

And for those flying in Economy and Premium Economy classes, but they only pay for the second and subsequent suitcases weighing up to 23 kilograms.

They have a free baggage allowance for the first (one) suitcase. Flights within Russia - 2,000 rubles. for the second and subsequent bags. CIS and Georgia - 25 euros each, non-CIS countries - 50 euros each.

Business class passengers carry free two suitcases weighing up to 32 kilograms each and pay only for the third and subsequent ones - 2000 rubles (50 and 150 euros), depending on the route.

"Business Light" and "Comfort Light" have the right to carry only one suitcase weighing up to 32 kilograms. And, starting from the second, for them the rates of the luggage excess of the Business class come into effect.

Oversized

These are transported items that do not fit into the norm in size... At Ural Airlines, everything over 203 cm in three dimensions is considered oversized. This rule applies to all travel classes.

Heavy


This is baggage that has exceeded the weight prescribed by the rules.

For classes "Promo", "Economy" and "Premium Economy" paid excess in weight starts from 23 kilograms.

And for the superior classes - "Business", "Business Light" and "Comfort Light" - from 32 kilograms.

If the "Promo" and "Economy" flights have things weighing from 23 to 32 kilograms, then on domestic flights they will have to pay extra for the excess of 2,000 rubles, within the CIS and to Georgia - 25 euros, far abroad - 100 euros.

When the suitcase is even heavier - 32-50 kilograms - the surcharge increases: 10,000 rubles, 100 and 150 euros, depending on the direction of the flight. This rule applies to all classes of service.

Oversized and overweight luggage, the airline should be warned about the excess in advance when booking a ticket.

If the carriage of such a special cargo has not been agreed with the company in advance, then the carrier reserves the right to refuse its transportation due to "technical impossibility".

And you will know this "good news" at the last moment, for example, when checking in for a flight.

Special free baggage

The airline allows free transportation:

  • golf equipment if the baggage allowance is not exceeded;
  • a bicycle if its folded and packed dimensions do not exceed 203 cm;
  • a surfboard if it weighs less than 32 kilograms;

Today this brand is recognizable not only in Russia but all over the world. The company is engaged in passenger and cargo air transportation.

In contact with

Each airline has its own rules regarding the carriage of things on the plane. In order not to get into an unpleasant situation, when booking, be sure to read the policy of a particular carrier. Let's figure out what is the permissible weight of baggage on Ural Airlines aircraft, how much you have to pay for the excess weight, and what exclusions and bonuses are provided.

Airfare

Before moving on to the airline's baggage rules, you should talk about air fares, because they regulate how many things you can take with you on the plane. Ural Airlines has five tariff plans:

Promo- the cheapest tickets are sold at this rate. Provides a minimum of things. Tickets at the fare are non-refundable.

Economy- provides for the return and standard weight of baggage. Suitable for travelers who are not sure about the trip and it is important for them to take a suitcase with them.

Premium Economy - in addition to the above, it includes the possibility of free choice of a seat on board the aircraft and an upgrade.

Business Light- these are tickets for travel in the "business class" cabin. Their price is lower due to the exclusion of some services. In particular, such tickets cannot be returned or exchanged. In addition, their owner will wait for departure in the common hall of the airport, the entrance to the business lounge is not available for him. All other services: a special menu, priority boarding, baggage and hand luggage allowances are the same as for the business fare.

Business- everything is included in this tariff, including ticket refunds and exchange, as well as access to premium lounges.

Things in the salon

To begin with, let's consider what are the airline's rules regarding cabin baggage - those things that the passenger carries on board the liner. As we have already said, these conditions depend on the fare of the ticket.

All tariff plans for the economy class cabin (Promo, Economy and Premium Economy) include one piece of carry-on baggage per passenger. The weight of the bag is up to five kilograms. Dimensions - 55 × 40 × 20 (or 115 cm in the sum of three dimensions).

Business class travelers can count on two pieces of carry-on baggage. The total weight of the bags must not exceed 15 kg. The size of each seat is up to 115 cm in total dimensions.

These rules apply to all passengers, including small children under two years old, who travel in the arms of their mother. Despite the fact that such passengers fly either with a 90% discount, they are entitled to 10 kg of luggage and up to 5 kg of hand luggage. An exception is made only for some flights, we will talk about them later.

In addition to hand luggage, parents can take with them in excess of the cabin baggage allowance, a cradle and baby food for the child.

Other travelers have the right to bring on board outerwear, a suit in a garment bag, a bouquet of flowers, an umbrella, a handbag or a briefcase, a folder for papers, periodicals, a laptop, a camera, a video camera and a telephone. All these things are carried in excess of the carry-on baggage allowance and will not be weighed at check-in.

Airlines policy

Now let's talk about the policy of Ural Airlines in terms of carrying bags and suitcases in the luggage compartment of the liner.

The Promo tariff includes 1 piece of checked baggage weighing up to 10 kg. The other two Economy Class fares provide for a heavier suitcase weight - up to 23 kilograms. Bznes Light ticket holders are entitled to one free piece of baggage weighing up to 32 kilograms. And the "Business" tariff already provides for two such places.

In all cases, the airline limits the size of suitcases. The size of one piece of free baggage cannot exceed 203 cm in the sum of three dimensions. At the same time, on either side, your luggage should be no more than 100 cm.

Exceeding any of the above criteria will incur additional charges.

Travelers who have a transfer flight with several connections should consider the following point. For all sections, the baggage allowance for the first segment of the route applies. But if you bought a ticket at the “Promo” tariff, then you will have to pay for your baggage several times - separately for each flight.

Exceptions

Each rule should have its own exceptions. So it is here. The above rules do not apply in some areas.

For example, special conditions apply on flights Moscow-Baikonur-Moscow. Here, for passengers flying in economy class, the free baggage allowance has been reduced to 15 kg. Business class passengers can take with them up to 10 kg of hand luggage and up to 30 kg of luggage. For infants traveling in any class, no carry-on or luggage is allowed.

Other than the standard and baggage allowance for flights operated jointly with partners, in particular flights of the Alliance Management Company. Here passengers can count on 20 kg of things (this rate also includes up to 5 kg of hand luggage), children from 2 to 12 years old are allowed 10 kg of luggage (including 5 kg of hand luggage). It will also not work to carry additional baggage with an infant - they are not allowed free baggage and carry-on baggage.

Moreover, it is worth informing the airline about such items in advance at the time of booking a ticket, otherwise it has the right not to allow your things to be transported. You can pay for excess or oversized baggage in any convenient way. Fares start at 2,000 rubles for domestic flights and 35 euros for international flights.

You will not be able to transport these items even for a surcharge. Some categories of prohibited items can be smuggled, for example, weapons. But this will require special approvals and documents.

Payment for baggage in excess of the standard

How much does the excess baggage cost? This issue is especially of interest to the owners of air tickets at the "Promo" tariff, because there are minimum norms for carrying suitcases. Excess weight of free baggage will cost 2,500 rubles for flights within Russia, 35 euros for a flight to one of the CIS countries or 40 euros for flights to other countries. Travelers who paid for this service on the carrier's website or in the application can save money, here you will pay only 2000 rubles. Please note that these rates apply only to suitcases weighing less than 23 kg. The more weight, the more you have to pay. So, for a bag weighing 30 kg, in addition to the above tariffs, you must pay another 2000 rubles, 35 or 40 euros, depending on the direction.

Excess baggage for Economy and Premium Economy fares is estimated at 2000 rubles, 35 or 40 euros. Let's remind, here the norms of free transportation are 23 kg.

But if your baggage exceeds 32 kg or its dimensions do not fit into the standard, then you already have to pay 10,000 rubles on a domestic flight and 100 euros when flying to the CIS zone. Exceeding the dimensions of 203 cm on international flights is also estimated at 100 euros, but the transportation of extra heavy baggage is not allowed on them at all.

Business class passengers pay only if their suitcase exceeds the free 32 kg or the dimensions do not fit into the norm. Here the price tags are similar to the above: 10,000 rubles and 100 euros.

There is one secret here. If possible, distribute things in different suitcases and buy an additional piece of luggage, it will cost you much less: 2-2.5 thousand rubles, 35 or 40 euros, depending on the direction.

A second piece in excess of the free baggage allowance on international flights will be more expensive. Here the price tag starts at 50 euros.

Again, these fares are valid for one flight segment only. On connecting flights, feel free to multiply all the numbers by two.

Bonuses for regular customers

If you are a status member of the Wings bonus program, you can count on additional benefits. Thus, holders of silver cards can count on a 50% discount on excess baggage allowance. A similar discount applies to oversized and heavy baggage.

Holders of gold cards traveling in economy class can count on an extra piece of baggage, as well as a 50th discount on other types of baggage. In Business Class, Gold Premium customers are offered half the cost of oversized suitcases.

So, now you can imagine the rules, conditions and prices for baggage transportation on Ural Airlines aircraft. Before departure, be sure to check the currently valid norms, because they are periodically reviewed and updated.

They entered Russia on November 5. If earlier it was possible to take a bag or suitcase weighing up to 10 kg on board an aircraft, now it is up to 5 kg.
