Pegasus Cabin Baggage & Hand Luggage Allowance
Everything you need to know about Pegasus hand luggage, cabin bag sizes, and checked baggage fees — so you can travel without surprises.
Last updated: 6th June 2026
Pegasus Airlines operates a low-cost fare structure where baggage allowances vary according to the fare package selected.
Every passenger receives a free underseat bag, while larger cabin bags and checked baggage allowances are included only with selected fares or purchased separately.
Passengers can bring one underseat bag measuring up to 40 x 30 x 15cm with a maximum weight of 3kg.
This bag must fit beneath the seat in front and is included on all fares. Travellers booking Saver, Saver Plus or Comfort Flex fares may also bring an overhead cabin bag up to 55 x 40 x 23cm weighing up to 8kg.
As with all airlines, liquids carried through airport security must be in containers of 100ml or less and comply with local airport screening requirements.
Checked baggage allowances depend on the fare selected and route being flown. Many international fares include up to 20kg of checked baggage, while Light fares may require baggage to be purchased separately.
Additional baggage can usually be added online before departure at lower rates than airport prices.
For travellers looking to avoid unexpected baggage charges, checking exactly what is included with your fare before travelling can help make your airport journey smoother and more predictable.
