Aeroflot international flights baggage allowance. Dimensions of hand luggage and baggage on Aeroflot aircraft

Russian Aeroflot has long earned a reputation as a leading airline that offers comfortable transportation services. Thousands of people, going on a trip, take luggage with them. Beginners are interested in what rules are set for carrying baggage at Aeroflot. Knowing the basic requirements protects against negative consequences when fines are charged for non-compliance with the rules or your hand luggage is confiscated.

How to transfer hand luggage using Aeroflot

Transportation rules hand luggage and baggage in 2019 at Aeroflot are as follows:

  1. Bags and suitcases placed in a separate compartment of the liner are classified as baggage, they are labeled with a special mark.
  2. The passenger is allowed to take the necessary things into the cabin of the aircraft, packed in a small handbag, for example, a lady's bag.
  3. Be prepared to go through the procedure of inspection of things, this is done taking into account the observance of the safety rules of tourists.
  4. Aeroflot's free baggage allowance is valid until the end of September 2017. The deputies passed a law that in October 2017 and to this day cancels the free transportation of luggage at the discretion of the carrier. What tariff rates Aeroflot will set is still unknown, most likely, a bag up to 23 kg will cost about 2,000 rubles.
  5. The number of bags allowed is determined by the ticket price. If the ticket high class, luggage can be more, on an all-inclusive basis.

Free baggage allowance at Aeroflot until the end of September 2019

Anyone who is going on a trip before the end of September 2019 can still use the previous baggage rules at Aeroflot:

  1. If we are talking about economy class, the baggage allowance is 1 piece, designed for 23 kg.
  2. An economy class ticket at a premium fare at Aeroflot allows you to qualify for 2 free places for suitcases, each of which assumes a weight of not more than 23 kg. The same standards apply to the comfort class.
  3. Business class tickets allow the passenger to place 2 pieces of baggage weighing no more than 32 kg.
  4. Before passing the control, measure the size of the suitcase. The total sum of width, length and height cannot exceed 158 cm.

If the flight is a joint flight with another airline, Aeroflot's free baggage allowance plus the requirements of the partner company apply.

If you are flying with Rossiya or Aurora, you should not worry about additional rules - in 2019 they are identical to Aeroflot.

Reading the baggage requirements on the plane on Aeroflot flights, recorded on the carrier's website, you can see the mysterious inscription 1pc. It indicates the number of bags or suitcases, the maximum number of which is three.

How much does excess baggage cost with Aeroflot

Until the end of September 2019, Aeroflot applies a surcharge rate for excess baggage and carry-on baggage that a passenger leaves in the cabin. What are the things that are overrated?

  1. If they do not fit into the norm by weight.
  2. They do not fit in size, physical characteristics.
  3. Occupy more seats than required by the rules.

In 2019, paying for an additional place for a suitcase costs a tourist 2,500 rubles. If he also needs third, fourth and subsequent places, they cost 7,500 rubles (each). From the end of September 2017, a surcharge for any luggage, except for a handbag, is expected - it will amount to 2,000 rubles for each backpack with a size of 23 kg or more. But while the exact prices have not yet been determined. The Russians hope that the payment for luggage will affect the cost of tickets, perhaps they will decrease.

If the weight of one backpack exceeds the norm is 32 kg, the tourist must pay 2,500 rubles to the Aeroflot cash desk. Bags from 32 to 50 kg cost 5,000 rubles.

How to lighten the weight of a suitcase

Saving money hasn't hurt anyone yet, so it's important to be able to pack your suitcase so that its weight is minimal. Use these useful advice seasoned travelers who have traveled half the world with a small backpack:

  1. No need to try to cram the whole house into a suitcase if you are going on vacation or a business trip for a couple of weeks. Call the hotel and ask if a hairdryer is provided in the room, if there are new slippers, toiletries and cosmetics. If you can’t say goodbye to your favorite lotion or fragrant shower gel, pour liquid formulations into 100 ml bottles. These are the rules of Aeroflot. And it is better to initially purchase a small bottle with the original label so that you are not pestered with unnecessary questions at the airport.
  2. You should not collect things for any weather, only the most necessary.
  3. To make the wardrobe look diverse, take clothes in primary colors - beige, black, cappuccino, mustard, blue.
  4. Pack your suitcase according to the previously compiled list of things. According to the degree of filling the bag, gradually cross out the stacked items.
  5. Wear bulky clothes.
  6. When traveling, plan to use the laundry service, then you need a minimum of clothes.
  7. Brochures, magazines, books - all this can be downloaded in an electronic version on a smartphone.
  8. Twist your clothes into rollers - this way they will hardly wrinkle and take up a minimum of space.

Hello friends. Important news today. After November 5, 2017, new rules for carrying baggage and hand luggage on flights of Russian airlines come into force. If earlier each carrier had its own requirements, now the rules will be the same for all Russian airlines (except for the Pobeda low-cost airline).

Attention! Once again: the law is only for Russian airlines. All other airlines have their own rules, consistent with the laws of their state.

The rules that the airlines and we, the passengers of the aircraft, are subject to are called the "General Rules air transportation passengers, baggage, cargo and requirements for servicing passengers, consignors, consignees". They were adopted on June 28, 2007 by order of the Ministry of Transport Russian Federation. Since then, the rules have been amended. But the rules were very different and vague. For some carriers, they were generally too rigid.

On October 5, 2017, a new law No. 409 was issued to amend the document. The changes affect everyone who uses air transport, i.e. and us.

It is clear that there are many interesting details in the law, which we will not talk about. Today we will talk about the most important thing, about what everyone who wants to use the flight with the help of Russian airline.

Let's agree on terms

  1. Baggage - suitcases, bags or boxes that we weigh at check-in and check in as luggage.
  2. Hand luggage - things packed in a bag, briefcase, backpack or package that we take with us to the cabin of the aircraft and on which the “hand luggage” tag was hung.
  3. Things that we take into the cabin of the aircraft and which have not been tagged. (Laptops, cameras, gadgets, clothes, flowers, baby food, crutches, canes, etc.)

There are many interesting details in the law, which we will not talk about. And we will tell only about the most important thing, about what an ordinary tourist who wants to take a flight with the help of a Russian airline will face.

The law comes into force on November 5, 2017. This means that everyone who buys tickets after November 5 is subject to these amendments.

For those who have already bought tickets in advance (before November 5), the law does not apply. So it is written in the same rules.

The most important thing about the new flight rules

General requirements that are important to us as travelers relate to baggage allowances and carrying items in the cabin. Let's try to clearly explain these rules so that you have no questions left, and understand what pluses and minuses we have.

Baggage Requirements

Before: the maximum weight of one piece of baggage must not exceed 32 kg.

Now: a new requirement has been introduced - the weight limit for 1 piece of baggage is 30 kg for all air carriers. Less is possible, more is impossible.

1 piece of luggage is one suitcase. If you rent a large backpack, then this is 1 backpack, if a bag, then this is 1 bag.

But! This does not mean that now on any ticket you can take 30 kg of luggage. Here important point, it depends on which fare ticket you bought. Simply put, an economy class ticket has fewer opportunities than those who took, for example, a business class ticket.

All baggage by weight can be broken down:

  • Up to 10 kg, from 10 kg to 30 kg, over 30 kg
  • Baggage up to 10 kg - free

Previously, the free baggage allowance for different companies was different, now it is the same for everyone.

This means that no company can write in their rules: "It is allowed to carry baggage weighing no more than 3 kg (or 6 kg or 7 kg)". The norm is 10 kg for everyone! You yourself are not obliged to gain exactly 10 kg, you can take less, at your discretion, but the company cannot set you a lower baggage weight limit.

Baggage weighing from 10 to 30 kg

Here are the nuances. As before, you need to go to the carrier's website and read its rules - how much should your baggage weigh in accordance with the fare of your ticket. This means that "the upper limit can be - 23 kg, 25, 27 to 30 kg. If the company rules for your fare indicate an upper limit of 23 kg (that is, you can carry no more than 23 kg for free), and when weighing the scales showed more of your suitcase at check-in, then you either need to take something out and leave it, or pay extra for the excess.

Excess baggage

Baggage that is not included in the price of your fare ticket is considered excess baggage.

Example: you bought a ticket Moscow-Vladivostok tariff "Economy flexible". The ticket price includes baggage weighing up to 23 kg. If your luggage weighs more than 23 kg, but does not exceed 30 kg, then this weight is considered excess and you will have to pay extra for it.

Check the airline's website for how much it will cost.

Luggage weighing 30 kg

Usually, a passenger who has bought a business class ticket can carry that much for free. At this rate, the passenger has more opportunities.

Baggage over 30 kg - Heavy baggage

Anything over 30 kg that does not fit the standard dimensions is considered a heavy load. Surcharge for each kilogram goes at a special rate for "heavy cargo". Each company has its own rates. Read on the company's website in the rules (section "Baggage Carriage"). This is required information.

Perhaps this is the main thing.

Baggage free ticket

I will add that many companies still have a baggage-free fare. This is when you do not take luggage at all and fly only with hand luggage. Tickets for it are cheap, but there are inconvenient nuances. The main one is that such a ticket is non-refundable.

Consolidated baggage

It also remains possible to combine the things of two or more travelers into one baggage (put all things in one suitcase - 1 piece of baggage). The weight of such luggage should also not exceed the same 30 kg.

What are the pros and cons we have in connection with the introduction of amendments?

Pros: There were standard norms for all. The main one - you can take free luggage weighing up to 10 kg. Here the norm has increased and we feel better.

Minuses: baggage weight limit to the maximum: instead of 32 kg, you can now take baggage weighing no more than 30 kg

Friends, now we are in Telegram: our channel about Europe, our channel about Asia. Welcome)

Hand luggage - new norms

Before: different carriers have their own requirements. For example, for some: you can take no more than 3 kg in hand luggage, for others - no more than 4, for others - no more than 5 kg, and for some up to 10 kg.

Now: The hand luggage allowance for all carriers is at least 5 kg per passenger. For us, this means that we can take less than 5 kg, but more than this weight hand luggage is prohibited. In this case, the carrier can change this figure in big side at your own discretion. Those. you still need to read the rules, because some companies can set a limit of 6, 7 kg per person or even 10 kg, which, of course, will please us.

Also, keep the dimensions in mind! Those. your hand luggage must fit not only into the norms for weight, but also for size (length, width, height). Dimension standards, as before, must be found on the carrier's website. There are no changes here.

Before: we could check in hand luggage and, in addition to it, carry laptops, cameras and cameras with us on the plane for free.

Now: All this is included in hand luggage.

In other words, it is impossible to carry separately:

  • telephones;
  • laptops;
  • cameras;
  • documents in folders;

You have to put them in bags. Their weight is also taken into account when calculating the weight of hand luggage.

Is the laptop in a bag or suitcase? You don't need to pay anything. Do you want to carry it separately? You are due.

If earlier hand luggage was weighed only at check-in, now it can be weighed before boarding itself (apparently in cases where the bag is suspicious). This is important for those who took few things with them, checking them out as hand luggage, and buying "baggageless" tickets.

Attention! Your hand luggage can also be weighed at the port of arrival!

Minuses this innovation: now at home you will have to carefully weigh your hand luggage and make sure that there is no overweight.

Pros: The aircraft cabin will be less busy. All your hand luggage will go into luggage compartment in the cabin of the aircraft and do not need to worry about whether your things will have enough space on the shelf or not.

Updated 19.02. 2018: In connection with the increasing complaints of passengers about the lack of space for hand luggage in the aircraft cabin, Aeroflot tightened control over hand luggage. You can read about it here.

What things can be taken on the plane and not checked in as hand luggage

And before, and now you can take with you the things you need during the flight or immediately after landing. They are not checked in as hand luggage and do not require additional payment.

Here is their list. The list will be supplemented, but definitely will not be able to cut:

  • handbag, knapsack, briefcase;
  • bouquet of flowers;
  • your clothes (jacket, coat); If we fly from a country where +27 degrees in our winter, where -27. Or vice versa, such an additional package with things is very relevant.
  • special children's food; But no more than what is needed for the flight.
  • specially packaged suit;
  • cane or crutch;
  • a baby stroller or cradle, which, when folded, fits under the seat in front of the chair;
  • walkers, which, when folded, are placed under the seat in front of the chair;
  • a medical chair for those who find it difficult to move around.

Familiar positions? They were previously allowed for free transportation. The list has now been expanded:

  • sealed bag from dutyfree;
  • medicines, everything necessary for medical reasons for the passenger.

And once again, what is now forbidden to be transported separately:

  • phone, laptop;
  • an umbrella, even a small one;
  • paper in a folder;
  • newspapers, books, magazines;
  • camera, camera.

What are the pros and cons of all this?

Pros: The minimum carry-on baggage allowance has increased to 5 kg.

Minuses: The maximum weight requirement for hand luggage has been reduced from 10kg to 5kg. Laptops, cameras, documents will have to be considered as hand luggage.

I think we will get used to the new norms and come up with something. Other countries already have experience, you can use their life hacks.

Video - How the Scots put things in a special vest

There are people who figure out how to carry more things in the cabin and not pay for it. One option is a vest for an air passenger. Interesting idea.

Common Questions

What happens if I refuse to pay?

Refusing to pay for something that can no longer be carried free of charge? For example, a laptop. It's simple - you may not be allowed on board. Of course, they will tell you about it. And they will give you a second chance to pay. But, we do not advise you to take risks - they will simply cancel your ticket if you insist.

Paid more than you carry. What to do?

Only if the overpayment is due to the number of seats, the money will be returned to you. If you paid for 2 seats, but used only one, you will be refunded.

Hand luggage weighs more than allowed. Is it possible to pay extra?

Not! It's a matter of passenger safety. If it does not fit in the weight and dimensions, they will not be allowed to carry it with you.

If the carrier does not follow the new rules

These innovations are relevant for everyone. You see that they are violated - you can contact Rospotrebnadzor. To do this, you need to keep all the tickets and receipts that you receive. Don't pay extra without a check! You can get compensation, and the carrier will be fined.

The rules have changed, perhaps something has become less convenient for us. But, if you think about it, you can find the right "luggage combination"!

From the main point, this is probably all. If you still have questions regarding the nuances (oversized cargo, baggage consolidation, money back, etc.), we highly recommend that you familiarize yourself with rules(study changes in the order “General Rules for the Air Transportation of Passengers, Baggage, Cargo and Requirements for Servicing Passengers, Consignors, Consignees”) and deal with your specific case. There are a lot of errors and misleading information on the websites and even in the CT video. Use the original!

Our "Victory"

Pobeda Airlines is a subsidiary of Aeroflot and positions itself as a low-cost airline.

On the territory of Russia, today, this is the only low-cost company, so its requirements are slightly different towards minimalism.

Proceed from the fact that the essence of the low-cost is to reduce the price of a ticket as much as possible, i.e. make it cheap, then the rules of Victory will become clearer to you.

Low-cost airlines (from the English "low-cost" (low-cost) - low costs) - a type of airlines that operate on an unconventional transportation model that involves the provision of very cheap air tickets.

The luggage that passengers take with them on a trip can and should be conditionally divided into 2 parts:

  • hand luggage- things that you will take with you on the plane
  • baggage- a suitcase or a bag that you hand over at check-in for a flight at the airport.

Aeroflot is one of the most loyal airlines for traveling light. Aeroflot passengers can take no more than 10 kg in hand luggage. And business class passengers can take on board hand luggage with a total weight of 15 kg.

The maximum allowable dimensions of hand luggage, the sum of length, width and height should not exceed 115 cm.

Additionally, you can take on board the aircraft:

  • handbag / men's briefcase
  • folder for papers
  • umbrella
  • cane
  • bouquet of flowers
  • outerwear
  • laptop, camera, camcorder
  • prints for in-flight reading
  • baby food for the baby during the flight
  • cradle when transporting a child
  • suit or dress in a suitcase
  • mobile phone
  • shopping from duty free»

Baggage transportation on Aeroflot flights

Aeroflot has new baggage rules - a system for the number of pieces.

Free baggage allowance on Aeroflot flights:

  • Economy class - 1 seat, weighing no more than 23 kg;
  • Economy class (fare group Premium-Economy, Premium-Comfort) - 2 pieces, each weighing no more than 23 kg.
  • Business class - 2 seats, weighing up to 32 kg each.

Exceptions:

When flying between points in the USA (except from / to Miami) and the Middle East, Asia (except points in the Russian Federation, as well as Tashkent, Bishkek, Ashgabat and Samarkand, Dushanbe, Khujand), Africa, India in economy class, you can use for luggage 2 pieces of 23 kg each.

Dimensions are also limited. The maximum allowable size of your suitcase is 158 cm in the sum of 3 dimensions (length, width and height).

Baggage and hand luggage for passengers with children

Children from 2 to 12 years old can carry the same amount of baggage as adults.

The cost of overweight baggage at Aeroflot

Any excess, weight, number of seats, dimensions - is considered excess baggage and must be paid separately.

Excess baggage pieces

If you are flying in economy class and you have 2 suitcases, one weighing 10 kg and the other weighing 13 kg. As a result, you have an excess in the number of places, because in economy class you are only allowed to carry 1 suitcase.

In this case, you need to buy one more piece of baggage, which will cost you 50 euros or 50 dollars (on flights from / to the USA, Canada, Asia except Tashkent, Bishkek, Dushanbe, Khujand, Africa and Ukraine).

And if you bought an air ticket at Premium Economy, Comfort or travel in business class, then you will need to purchase a third seat, then it will cost 150 euros / dollars.

Overweight

If you are traveling in economy class, and you have 1 suitcase with a total weight of 29 kg, then in this case, the excess weight will be 5 kg.

From now on, if a suitcase weighs from 23 kg to 32 kg, then excess weight will cost you 50 euros for flights within Russia and 100 euros/dollars for flights to all other destinations.

No matter how many kilograms you have exceeded the norm, the price for overweight is the same.

If the weight of the suitcase is from 32 kg to 50 kg, the surcharge will be 100 euros for flights within the Russian Federation and 150 euros/dollars for other destinations.

Maximum weight one piece of baggage must not exceed 32 kg. Trade unions of loaders in many European countries forbid them to lift suitcases weighing more than 32 kg.

Oversize

Baggage, the dimensions of which in the sum of three dimensions exceed 158 cm, is considered oversized.

If the size of your suitcase is more than 158 cm, but less than 203 cm, then its transportation will cost 100 dollars or euros (depending on the direction).

If the luggage dimensions are more than 203 cm, then you will have to pay 150 dollars / euros.

Skis and snowboards are also considered excess baggage, but during the ski season, Aeroflot transports them completely free of charge in addition to the main baggage allowance.

You can take hand luggage, luggage and a set of ski equipment in a bag (skis, poles, boots, helmet) free of charge.

Excess at the same time on several parameters

It is not uncommon for a passenger to exceed 2 parameters at once, for example, the number of seats and weight. In this case, the excess amount is summed up.

If you are flying from Moscow to Paris in an economy class cabin. You have 2 suitcases with a total weight of 15 and 26 kg. In this case, you will need to buy one more piece of luggage and pay for an overweight of three kg (26-23 = 3 kg). 1 piece of luggage costs 50 euros, a suitcase weighing from 23 to 32 kg - 100 euros. The total amount is 150 euros.

From this we can conclude that exceeding the number of seats will cost you much less, so in such situations, if possible, put the extra pounds in a suitcase weighing 15 kg or take it in hand luggage.

» - inquire about baggage and carry-on baggage in advance. Avianiti briefly talks about the main requirements of the main Russian airline for passengers' luggage.

The carriage of luggage and hand luggage is included in all Aeroflot airfare, the differences are only in the number of pieces and weight of luggage. For example, in a cheap promotional fare, you can carry only one piece of baggage, and in business class, two or three pieces, depending on the direction. Aeroflot recommends that customers study information about ticket fares and baggage before purchasing air tickets.

Excess baggage is subject to additional charges. Aeroflot will carry it on the condition that there will be free space on the plane after loading the passengers' belongings. If you plan to have a trip with oversized baggage weighing from 32 to 50 kg and measuring more than 203 cm, inform the airline 36 hours before the flight departure. Any excess and oversized baggage must be agreed with the airline and receive permission and confirmation of carriage from it. Otherwise, there will be no place for your luggage.

Payment for excess baggage is possible only at the check-in counters at the airport.

Requirements for hand luggage

Aeroflot airlines allow hand luggage items weighing up to 10 kg and up to 115 cm in size in the sum of three changes in economy class, up to 15 kg in business class. In addition, a passenger can take additional personal items into the cabin of the aircraft, they are not weighed and are not registered at the check-in counter.

For the safety of things carried in the cabin, only the passenger is responsible.

Aeroflot is rightfully considered the No. 1 airline in Russia, not only due to its long history and wide fleet aircraft, but also a huge number flights, excellent service and rich experience of cooperation with other airlines.

Booking classes and rates

The airline offers its customers a choice of several fares with different levels of service included in the ticket. The main differences between booking classes, like many other airlines, are the number of baggage allowances provided by Aeroflot; 2014 introduced a certain number of changes and additions to the standard set of tariffs.

From June 21, 2014, in addition to the usual business and economy class, Aeroflot customers can choose a convenient booking class from the options listed in the following table.

Often, when choosing fares, passengers are most interested in price and baggage allowance. If the price depends directly on the direction and date of departure, then the rules regarding baggage do not change and therefore can be considered in more detail.

Types of luggage

All baggage carried by an Aeroflot passenger on board an aircraft is divided into two types - checked baggage and hand baggage. Checked baggage is marked with a special tag indicating the final destination with all intermediate stops, and the tag also marks the connection of the baggage with the ticket number, respectively, and its belonging to a specific passenger. Checked baggage is kept in the hold during the flight.

Hand luggage is everything that the passenger takes with him into the cabin of the aircraft. Usually it is limited in volume and weight or a suitcase and a number of additional items.

Depending on the type of baggage that the passenger of Aeroflot flights takes with him on the plane, the baggage allowance may differ. In addition to the above two main types, baggage can be:

  • additional - children's luggage, children's or;
  • excess - exceeding the allowed number of baggage pieces, weight or volume;
  • special - sports equipment, musical instruments, weapons and animals.

baggage allowance

Before delving into the regulations, it is worth noting an important point - baggage can be of two categories: free (included in the ticket price) or paid (exceeding the restrictions imposed by the selected fare). Depending on the category, the allowances may be dictated by various circumstances and differ from each other.

It is best to check with the operator in advance about the rules for additional payment and the possibility of taking excess baggage on the plane. In the event of a busy flight and aircraft, the airline reserves the right to refuse to accept additional weight on board.

The airline operates many flights in conjunction with other airlines. In the event that Aeroflot is not the main operator of a code-share flight, but only a partner of another airline, the baggage rules of the operating company apply on the flight.

If the flight consists of several flights and is operated by several airlines, not only Aeroflot, the baggage allowance is in accordance with the rules applied by the dominant air carrier on the flight. For example, if the flight consists of three flights, one of which takes 2 hours in the air and is operated by Aeroflot, the other is above ground for an hour and belongs to the company Turkish Airlines, and the third is operated by Lufthansa and takes 8 hours, then luggage is subject to Lufthansa's regulatory control.

Free checked baggage

The airline operates a standard plan dominated by 1PC baggage allowance. Aeroflot provides two pieces of baggage (2PC) in business class and economy class only to certain destinations, including Los Angeles, New York, Tokyo, Shanghai, Yerevan and others.

One piece of checked baggage is limited in weight and volume. The maximum weight of one piece of included baggage for business class is 32 kg and for economy class it is 23 kg. The volume of a suitcase or bag is calculated by adding three dimensions: length, width and height. It is allowed to carry baggage that does not exceed 158 cm in total, regardless of the booking class and fare plan.

Free hand luggage

Each Aeroflot passenger is allowed to take a small bag, suitcase or backpack weighing up to 10 kg into the aircraft cabin. Carriage of baggage in the cabin has more stringent requirements and restrictions. For example, in hand luggage you cannot carry liquids in containers larger than 100 ml, with a total volume of 1 liter; you will also have to get rid of piercing and cutting items, such as manicure sets, stationery scissors and blades, and medical instruments.

The carry-on baggage limit is 115 cm for all booking classes. The maximum cabin baggage weight is 10 kg for Economy Class and 15 kg for Business Class. What, how and in what quantity can be carried in the cabin of the aircraft is directly affected by Aeroflot's baggage allowance. In order not to encounter unforeseen difficulties, it is best to familiarize yourself with the regulations in advance.

In addition to the main hand luggage, there are a number of things and items for personal use that are covered by the norm. free transportation baggage. Aeroflot offers its passengers the opportunity to take a small ladies' or men's bag, outerwear, a laptop computer, a photo and video camera, printed publications, an umbrella, purchases from Duty Free and some other things with them on the flight.

Children's baggage allowance

Aeroflot distinguishes between two main categories of children: up to 2 years old and from 2 to 12 years old. Children under two years of age receive a 90% discount on the ticket, due to the fact that they are not provided with a separate seat. Children from 2 to 12 years old occupy a full seat in the cabin, respectively, the same baggage rules apply to them.

Many airlines offer checked baggage for infants under 2 years of age. Aeroflot was no exception - the baggage allowance for infants limits the provided luggage space to 115 cm and weighing 10 kg. In addition to small checked baggage, the “ticket” of babies also includes hand luggage: a bag with things, a baby stroller weighing up to 12 kg, a portable cradle, the required amount of liquid formula or other baby food.
