Baggage is an invariable part of the flight. This is not surprising, because all passengers travel by plane with their belongings, be it hand luggage or more massive cargo transported in a special compartment. Violation of current requirements and non-observance of norms is fraught with many problems for the passenger, starting with the impossibility of making a flight and uploading additional costs. Below we will consider the rules for the carriage of baggage in the North Wind airline.

What are the regulations?

The first thing that a passenger should study is the North Wind airline's baggage allowance, which is valid at the time of the flight. So, at the end of April 2017, certain changes took place in the conditions of transportation.

Today the following norms apply:

• For hand luggage the limiting dimensions (per seat) are 115 cm or 55 * 40 * 20 cm. As for the weight, the limiting parameter here depends on the direction. If we are talking about a domestic flight, the limit is 10 kg, and for an international flight, this figure is 5 kg.
• Registered cargo transportation at the carrier the North Wind is carried out taking into account other norms. So, for domestic flights, the maximum weight should not exceed 10 kg (for the "Promo" tariff), 20 kg (for "Standard" and "Standard Plus"), as well as 32 kg (for the "Comfort" plan). In case of international flight the limit is 20 kg, except for the Comfort fare, where the maximum weight is 32 kg. Maximum dimensions - 203 cm (in total).

North Wind baggage allowance may vary depending on destination and rates. Wherein current regulations refer to passengers of different ages - from 2 years old and more. If the passenger is not provided with an additional seat, only free transportation of things within the dimensions and weight discussed above is allowed.

It should be noted that the norms of free transportation do not apply to animals, personal belongings of the passenger, hand luggage (up to 10 kg), as well as heavy cargo (from 32 kg).

Extra weight surcharge

If the baggage carried by the aircraft of the North Wind airline exceeds the normalized indicators (mentioned above), you will have to make a payment taking into account current tariff:

• If the number of seats is exceeded (with a weight of up to 32 kg and a size of 2.03 meters), the amount of payment can be 2,000 rubles (for domestic) and 35 euros (for international flights). If the third place is bought - 6000 rubles.
• In case of excess weight, the amount of the surcharge can range from 2 to 6 thousand rubles.
• If the size is not respected (dimensions are more than 2.03 m), you will have to pay 6 thousand rubles.

Individual surcharges are established for firearms and animals. In the first case, the weight should be up to 10 kg, and the payment will be 6 thousand rubles, and in the second, the mass should not exceed 8 kg. In this case, the surcharge is equal to 2 thousand rubles. When making an international flight with North Wind Airlines, baggage rules may differ. Before departure, the passenger must present all things for weighing (except for personal luggage). The airline has the right to refuse to go for refusal if the established norms are not observed.

Rules for the carriage of baggage in the airline North Wind

In order to avoid unpleasant situations during the check-in and boarding process, it is important to take a responsible approach to studying the carrier's requirements. Below are the main rules for the carriage of baggage in the airline Nordic wind:

• Hand luggage- things that weigh no more than 10 kg (for domestic flights) and 5 kg (for international flights), and the overall dimensions do not exceed 115 cm. The optimal location for such cargo is under the passenger seat. Outerwear and light items can be stored in the box above the chair. The most fragile and valuable cargo should be transported in a separate place. In this case, the weight of the baggage should not exceed 80 kg, and the dimensions should not exceed the size of the passenger seat. It is not required to register the cargo that is transported in a separate place - the passenger is responsible for it. Personal belongings of the passenger, namely a camera, mobile phone, cane, umbrella, folder for papers, suit and others, do not belong to carry-on baggage. North Wind Airlines allows special baggage, for example, a wheelchair or cane stroller.
• Paid cargo... At the same time, the passenger must inform the airline about the need to carry things in excess of the permissible limit. In this case, the client must make a payment taking into account the carrier's tariffs. Full information on baggage can be obtained on the official website of the North Wind airline.

Positive reviews

Alexander

Recently we flew from Vietnam on flight 2736, Boeing - 777-200. The impressions were very good. The ten-hour flight took place in comfortable conditions. I liked the food. Warm blankets were distributed to everyone. Takeoff and landing are almost imperceptible. The flight was not delayed. I thank the airline for the excellent service!

Olga

We traveled on 05/10/2017 with the North Wind airline from Cheboksary to Belgorod via Moscow. I was pleased with the cost of the ticket, the plane was clean, the flight took off without delay. Although the flight had a connecting flight, and the next one! Special thanks to the flight attendants and the pilot!

Yaroslav

We had such a story with Nord Wind. We flew five of us on May 2 from Sheremetyevo to Simferopol, on May 12 the tickets were in the opposite direction. The first and second times, flights were delayed by an hour and a half. Then it turned out that the delay was caused by the airport itself. Both times, instead of the promised Airbus А321 "North Wind", they provided Boeing - 767 "Pegasus". At first, they did not understand that this was the same organization. The flight went well, the cabin was comfortable, the food was good.

Negative reviews

Vadim

Our plane and several other aircraft of the company were detained on the day of departure to Sheremetyevo. Nobody really explained anything. Waiting for several hours. The employees of the company did not consider it necessary to offer us neither food nor drinks. I was very upset with this attitude of Nord Wind towards customers.

Lika

My acquaintance with Nord Wind also left negative impressions. Flight as part of a tourist package from Pegasus, Moscow - Bangkok. The flight was postponed from eight in the evening to five in the morning. A whole day of vacation is lost. Representatives of the airline blamed everything on bad weather and aircraft breakdown. Other passengers said that this happens quite often on North Wind Airlines. If you have old and constantly breaking aircraft, replace them! Why should people suffer!

George

The flight 1805 - Moscow - Antalya on 05/13/2017 was supposed to take place at 9 a.m. from Sheremetyevo airport, then a different time was appointed several times. The airliner was never submitted. As compensation, a bottle of water was distributed. We were asked to pick up our things. Some went to the hotel (provided with meals), but we went home. They promised to inform about the departure time, but no one called. Our flight was sent without us. The travel agent said that we ourselves are to blame for this, buy tickets at your own expense. This is how our mood was ruined along with the vacation.

Nord Wind is committed to providing quality service and meeting the needs of every passenger. Traveling by air must meet all safety requirements and leave a good experience. All negative and positive reviews about North Wind Airlines will help to improve service during the flight and help to avoid many ambiguous situations. The best reward for the company will be an honest review on the pages of the site or social networks... Have you used the services of this airline? Write your reviews!

Russian airlines do not have identical rules and regulations in baggage policy, although they try to adhere to a general orientation. Therefore, if a passenger is accustomed to flying with one carrier, it is in his interests not to be lazy and check what the information from Nordwind Airlines says, if this very passenger plans to buy a ticket for the flight to Nordwind. We hope that we will help you deal with pressing suitcase issues.

Carry-on baggage rules on Nordwind Airlines aircraft in 2019

The first thing that worries a passenger when he packs his suitcase and backpack on a trip is the question: “Will my luggage and hand luggage be allowed on the plane? Or do they not match the requested size and weight? " Nordwind Airlines informs that according to the regulations the size of hand luggage should not exceed 55x40x20 cm (115 cm in the sum of measurements). These are fairly common dimensions that manufacturers know about. So getting a suitcase or bag of a suitable size is not difficult.

But the maximum weight of hand luggage cannot exceed the one set in the tariff:

1. Economy (Promo, Excursion, Optimum), Comfort (Excursion), Business (Excursion) - 1 place up to 5 kg per person.
2. Comfort (Promo, Optimum), Business (Promo, Optimum) - 2 places up to 5 kg per person.

You can take with you on the plane in your hand luggage something that will be urgently useful in flight and that you definitely cannot harm others by accident or on purpose. A small amount of snacks (cookies, sandwiches), wet wipes, gadgets, a book and other little things. Avoid manicure kits, knitting needles, a pocket knife and scissors, but do not forget to grab important and necessary medications. It is better if they are in their original packaging, with instructions and a prescription from a doctor.

What does “1 km baggage allowance” mean on a Nord Wind ticket?

If you come across a strange inscription on your air ticket with the note "baggage allowance 1 km" - do not be alarmed. “KM” does not mean kilometers. This means the number of cargo items. That is, a passenger can carry one suitcase, bag and the like in accordance with the established dimensions and norms.

Baggage supplement: how much does 1 kg overweight cost at Nordwind Airlines?

Keep in mind that for a heavyweight and oversized baggage the airline has its own set rates. But if the passenger just went through with gifts on the trip or chose an inappropriate bag, then he should calculate additional costs in order to pay the North Wind extra centimeters and kilograms in excess of the norm.

The cost of such baggage depends on the flight distance and on the parameters of the suitcase itself. This is very approximately 440 rubles per kilogram.

For example, exceeding the size of a suitcase on flights within Russia will cost 6,000 rubles, and for an overseas flight, you will have to pay from 70 to 120 euros / dollars.

Exceeding the number of seats in the international direction will cost 35-75 euros or dollars. And on local flights - free of charge.
