Checked baggage with Vueling: what you need to know
Vueling offers flexible checked baggage options that can be added during booking or after purchase. Passengers can choose from 15kg, 20kg, 25kg or 30kg bags depending on their needs.
Prices vary based on route, demand and when the baggage is added, with online booking offering the lowest cost. Airport pricing is significantly higher, so it’s worth planning ahead.
Each checked bag must not exceed a total dimension of 158cm (height + width + depth), including handles and wheels. If your bag exceeds the purchased weight, excess fees apply per kilogram, up to a maximum of 32kg.
Key checked baggage tips:
-
Book baggage online to save up to 50%
-
Choose weight carefully — upgrading later can cost more
-
Keep valuables and essentials in your cabin bag
-
Avoid exceeding size limits to prevent reclassification as special luggage
Vueling cabin baggage rules: liquids, extras and restrictions
All Vueling passengers can bring one underseat cabin bag free of charge. Larger cabin bags must either be included in your fare or purchased separately.
Liquids in hand luggage must follow standard airport security rules.
Each container must be no larger than 100ml, and all liquids must fit within a single transparent resealable bag (maximum 1 litre total).
At security, this bag must be removed and screened separately.
CabinCleared kits are designed specifically to meet these rules, helping you pass through security quickly without repacking.
Common cabin baggage mistakes to avoid
-
Bringing full-size toiletries over 100ml
-
Forgetting to place liquids in a clear bag
-
Assuming a cabin bag is included on basic fares
-
Overpacking cabin bags beyond size or weight limits
-
Leaving prohibited items in hand luggage
Cabin-approved travel kits make it easier to stay within liquid limits, pack efficiently, and get through airport security without hassle.
