S7 hand luggage that cannot be carried. Dimensions and size of hand luggage on the s7 plane, as well as the baggage rules and regulations of the s7 airline. Current rules for transporting baggage in economy class

S7 Airline is a Russian air carrier founded in 1992. Based at Tolmachevo Airport (Novosibirsk). Until 2006 it was called “Sibir”, but then a serious rebranding was carried out. Performs regular and charter flights, both in Russia and abroad.

How many hand luggage allows you to carry S7, and what are the restrictions on the contents?

Dimensions

Carry-on baggage s7 (or rather, each piece) cannot be larger than 55x40x20 centimeters. In this case, this is absolutely not a whim of the airline, but a restriction dictated by the fact that the passenger must place the item (bag, backpack, etc.) on a lockable shelf near the ceiling, or under the seat in front (of his choice). But the space there is not unlimited - after all, for example, in the Airbus A320 up to 180 people can fly at the same time, and there should be enough space for their luggage.

S7 aircraft

Note! In some seats (near emergency exits, in the front row) you cannot put things under the seat. Therefore, they need to be placed (at least during takeoff and landing) only on a special shelf overhead.

How is the size of hand luggage controlled?

As a rule, airline employees do not approach passengers at the airport with tape measures - this is not necessary. There are special template frames installed near the racks. If an item (suitcase, backpack, etc.) fits in such a frame, it can be carried free of charge.

The passenger can carry out the appropriate checks independently, even before check-in. At the same time, it is not at all a fact that everyone flying will have to undergo such a procedure. Often the dimensions are assessed visually, but if they already raise suspicion (for example, a suitcase or backpack is clearly larger than 55x40x20), then they may ask you to put the item in a frame to check the fit.

Weight

According to the rules, one piece of hand luggage carried on an S7 airline aircraft cannot weigh more than 10 kg (for economy class fares - “Economy Basic” and “Economy Flexible”) or 15 kg (for business class fares - “Business Basic”) " and "Business Flexible").

Number of seats

In hand luggage - 1 piece for economy class and 2 pieces for business class.

Size check area for hand luggage S7

What can you carry in hand luggage in addition to the specified allowance?

The S7 company rules, consistent with current legislation, define the following list:

a handbag, backpack or briefcase, the weight of which does not exceed 5 kg, and the dimensions (the sum of three dimensions) - 75 cm;
outerwear (type not regulated);
a bouquet of flowers (its size and weight are not specified);
suit in a suitcase;
goods purchased in duty-free shops at the airport of departure (including liquids), placed in a sealed bag with a receipt attached to it. Wherein dimensions such a package cannot exceed 75 cm in sum of three dimensions, and weight - 3 kg.
crutches, canes, walkers, rollators, folding wheelchairs and other similar devices used by a passenger with limited mobility. During the flight, he will need to put such an item in a lockable luggage rack (under the ceiling), or put it under a seat that is one row ahead;
medications or diet foods. The quantity is determined by the passenger’s needs during the flight;
a cradle, a car seat and other devices for a child under two years old, as well as a stroller or a child car seat for a child under 11 years old, if the dimensions of such an item do not exceed 55x40x20 cm and they can be placed on a shelf above the seat, or on floor, under the seat in front.

Stroller

Note! Strollers, seats, cradles and other restraint systems can be taken on a plane free of charge only if the child for whom they are intended is traveling on the same flight. In the case when the stroller is transported without a child, the standard requirements for carry-on luggage and baggage apply to its transportation.

Transportation of liquids

Liquid in this context refers not only to a substance in a liquid state. These include objects (including food) whose consistency is pasty or creamy. These are sauces, creams, pastes, gels, aerosols, canned food and much more. That is why, for example, you can freely carry hard cheese in your hand luggage, but if the variety is soft (Camembert, Brie, ricotta, mozzarella, feta and others), appropriate restrictions are imposed on it. Or you can put olives “by themselves” in your hand luggage, but if the package contains oil or other liquid in addition to them, then the rules below come into force. The same applies to cosmetics.

So, liquids can be carried in hand luggage, but subject to certain requirements.

The volume of each container cannot be more than 100 ml. That is, if the toothpaste is in a 125-ml tube, airport security officers will most likely take it away at the control;

Note! The packaging does not have to be original. This will not work with an aerosol deodorant or shaving gel due to the pressure inside the container, but, for example, shampoo can be easily poured into a container of the approved size (up to 100 ml inclusive).

Containers must be placed in a transparent bag with a zipper (usually a zipper is used). Its volume is also limited - it cannot be more than 1 liter;
If a passenger does not have such a package, it is damaged (torn) or does not meet the requirements, then an airport employee can issue it free of charge, or offer to purchase it for a small amount.
This package must be removed from the main piece of hand luggage (bag, backpack, etc.) and placed separately on the security belt for scanning.

Bag for packing liquids in hand luggage

Additional Information! Baby food (if the passenger is traveling with a child) is not subject to the 100 ml limit per container. But there is no need to take water - the flight attendant will bring it upon request.

What cannot be carried as hand luggage:

piercing objects. Any, without exceptions. Even such harmless, at first glance, as manicure scissors or a nail file will be confiscated. However, plastic disposable knives and forks without pointed ends are permitted;
toxic objects, as well as poisons;
explosives and flammable substances;
corrosive, oxidizing substances;
weapons (separate requirements apply to their transportation);
radioactive items;
other things that the security officer deems dangerous.

The general criterion in this case is clear - you cannot take on board anything that can injure or kill other passengers or crew members, or carry out a terrorist attack on board (make an explosive device, etc.). Hence the very strict requirements for liquids, which many passengers perceive with hostility. But in modern world Additional precautions are never superfluous.

What cannot be carried in hand luggage

Exceeding the size and quantity of hand luggage

S7 Airlines cannot arrange for excess hand luggage, even for extra money. Anything unnecessary (that is, that which does not fit into the established standards) must be checked in as baggage. Depending on the tariff, an additional fee may be charged for this - the cost varies accordingly. Therefore, the passenger is recommended, even when purchasing a ticket (especially for a basic, baggage-free fare), to decide whether in a particular case it is possible to meet the requirements for the weight and size of hand luggage, or whether he should immediately purchase additional luggage and be calm. After all, according to S7 tariffs, the fee for luggage at the airport is much more than directly in the process of purchasing an air ticket. Therefore, trying to save a relatively small amount can be costly in practice.

On a note! S7 Airlines has fairly strict requirements for passengers' carry-on luggage. This follows from the fact that even those who bought the ticket on their own cheap tariff, you are allowed to take a bag, backpack, or other item weighing 10 kg into the cabin. While some competitors have already reduced this threshold to the minimum permitted by law 5 kg.

For this reason, the number of those who choose “Economy Basic” is increasing. After all, with certain tricks, a suitcase or backpack 55x40x20 is quite enough for a vacation lasting a week or two, or even more. There were no new additions (changes, restrictions, etc.) in 2018, and it is unknown whether there will be any.

Restrictions on the contents of hand luggage are not imposed by the airline. They are established by international aviation regulatory authorities, and these rules are followed at every airport.

On December 1, 2015, S7 Airlines (the legal name of the company is S7 Siberia Airlines) launched a new tariff system.

As a result, the passenger can choose the required tariff, guided by the presence or absence of available (necessary) options. In total, the following tariffs have been introduced:

ECONOMY BASIC;
ECONOMY FLEX;
BUSINESS BASIC;
BUSINESS FLEX.

Important! Not only tariff changes have occurred. Now the company provides the opportunity to carry hand luggage up to 10 kg (the weight of hand luggage on an airplane was previously 7 kg), and to receive 25% more miles for members of the S7 Priority program (the number of miles has been increased by S7 Airlines from 25% to 50% at the minimum fare) , purchase any fare until the flight is fully loaded.

In the Economy Basic tariff plan, the airline included a flight (1 seat) + 1 piece of hand luggage, the weight of which is 10 kg, and the dimensions must correspond to the parameters 55-40-20 cm.

Baggage transportation under this tariff is paid and is calculated at a cost of 2,500 rubles per segment: 1 piece of luggage for 23 kg of luggage (the norm for the luggage compartment is 203 cm). For international flights - payment and payment in euros, for flights with transfers (domestic / international) - payment also in euros. When purchasing an air ticket and paying for baggage online, the passenger receives a discount (according to the payment rules), and the cost of 1 piece of baggage will be 1,800 rubles. It is worth paying attention to the fact that according to the company’s rules, the price of transporting baggage in case of a transfer (on domestic flights company) doubles.

If the norm is exceeded, the additional payment for baggage is calculated based on the following parameters.

Calculation of surcharge for excess baggage

Dimensions, parameters (requirements for parameters for any AK are strict)	Direct flight	Transfer flight
from 23 kg to 32 kg of luggage (with dimensions equal to 203 cm)	+2500 rubles	+5000 rubles
from 32 kg to 50 kg (with dimensions equal to 203 cm); see “Payment for transfer of “non-standard” luggage”	+5000 rubles	+10000 rubles
if the norm is exceeded 203 cm	+2500 rubles	+5000 rubles
1 extra bed	+2500 rubles	+5000 rubles
2 extra seats	+5000	+10000 rubles

Important! If the passenger has to wait between connecting flights more than 24 hours, then the transportation conditions are as follows: baggage is checked in to the first connecting point.

For free (that is, if you already have a paid seat, in addition) you can carry baby strollers, bassinets, car seats for children (as carry-on luggage or baggage), but only if a child is also registered for the flight. If there is no child, and the stroller is intended, for example, as a gift, then it is paid for like all other luggage. The airline also allows you to carry one set of ski or snowboard equipment free of charge if the weight of the carried set does not exceed 32 kg. The conditions for transporting a larger set are the same as in the case of “non-standard” cargo.

Important! S7 Priority program participants with Ruby status are entitled to 1 free place luggage (up to 23 kg) even at the Economy Basic fare.

Non-standard luggage

Non-standard cargo can also be carried on airplanes, that is, luggage that does not meet the standard (more than 203 cm and heavier than 32 kg). Before the flight, you must contact the company to clarify whether it is possible to transfer such cargo on the desired flight. If there is an opportunity, then most likely the company will offer to buy 3 standard pieces of luggage, and the tariff plan will not be taken into account in this case. Maximum permissible weight for transportation – 50 kg. But the question of how much luggage costs on an airplane for disabled people, which naturally exceeds the weight of 50 kg, can be answered unequivocally - wheelchairs and other large auxiliary aids can be transported at a standard rate or free of charge, if they can be placed in the cabin.

Transportation of animals

A container with an animal is considered excess cargo and must be paid for. Most often, the container is placed in the luggage compartment, taking into account its parameters (the total weight of the standing container must be more than 8 kg, the size must be more than 115 cm). If the container is smaller, it can be transported in the aircraft cabin.

Important! It is not possible to register the transportation of an animal online.

Service “Additional norm”

The company operates the service " Additional norm baggage allowance." In accordance with it, it is possible to carry cargo on an airplane that exceeds the standard norm by 5-15 kg. This service can only be used once and is not valid for some destinations. When choosing an airplane and flight, consider this point.

The regulations and standards mentioned above are internal and apply only to flights operated by the company. If we are talking about a code-share or transfer with the participation of a partner company, then the cost of baggage will be calculated in accordance with IATA standards, taking into account the “dominant” carrier. More detailed information for calculating the cost of baggage on such routes can be provided at the S7 Airlines contact center at phone numbers: 8 800 700-0707.

This can be done through the airline’s website, by calling the call center or at the airport when checking in for a flight.

Transporting animals on an airplane

S7 Airlines carries pets: dogs, cats, birds in hand luggage or in the luggage compartment. Transportation of other types of animals must be registered as cargo. You must pay to fly your pet; the cost depends on the weight and size of the animal, as well as the flight. You can arrange transportation of an animal by plane only through the airline's sales offices; this service is not available on the official website.

The animal will need a veterinary certificate, veterinary passport, container or cage. No later than 48 hours before departure, you must call the airline and make a request to transport your pet. It is better to notify the airline about the flight of an animal when booking air tickets.

An animal is allowed to be taken into the cabin if its weight together with the container does not exceed 10 kg, and the container itself (or carrying bag) is no more than 115 cm in three dimensions; it is important that the height is no more than 20 cm.
