What is my luggage allowance for Sports or diving equipment?

Excess Luggage and Sports Equipment - There may be a charge for excess luggage and sports equipment. Whether or not we can carry it will depend on capacity on the day. You can arrange to take golf clubs, windsurf boards, diving equipment and other sports equipment on your flight. If you don't book, you may still be able to check your own equipment in, but we can't guarantee this and there'll be a charge. Bear in mind, any problems with excess luggage charges need to be sorted out at the airport. We can't guarantee you'll be able to take bulky sports equipment with you on the coach to your holiday accommodation, and there may be an extra charge,

In order to book these, give us a call on 01 693 7700 (ROI) or 028 90 389 387 (NI). We recommend that you book this as soon as possible as space on each flight is very limited. 

Below, you'll find the price per one way flight for different equipment types:
- Diving & scuba equipment from £30 / €35 
- Bikes from £30 / €35 
- Fishing rods from £20 / €23 
- Golf clubs & other equipment from £27 / €32
- Surf boards from £30 / €35 

Just so you know, prices may vary depending on your destination. Some countries impose customs charges for the import of high value items e.g. sports equipment, please ensure you check this with the relevant authorities before you travel. If you plan to take sporting equipment eg, golf clubs or surf boards into Manohar International Airport, Goa, heavy customs duty charges will be made on arrival and may delay your onward journey. You may wish to consider hiring in resort.

Ski/Snowboards - 

You can buy ski and snowboard carriage on the Flight Extras website. It's sold per set of skis or snowboard (not per bag) – one set of skis or one snowboard in one bag costs from £60 / €69 and the maximum weight is 15kg. To take two sets of skis or two snowboards in one bag, you must buy two lots of ski or snowboard carriage from £60 / €69 each and the total maximum weight is 23kg.

You can also pack clothes in the bag, as long as it doesn't go over the weight limit.

Ski/snowboard boots aren’t included in ski or snowboard carriage – these are part of your normal baggage allowance and must be checked into the hold.

Please note, you can’t bring your skis or snowboard instead of your checked baggage – you must book separate ski or snowboard carriage, even if you’re not bringing any checked baggage.

You can use one of the larger wheelie bags by paying from £60 / €69 ski or snowboard carriage charge, with a checked baggage allowance of 23kg total. If you choose this option, you can't take any other checked baggage.

Protecting your Sports Equipment
We recommend that you insure your sports equipment for its replacement value and make sure it's securely packed with zip compartments padlocked. If you're taking a bicycle, we recommend you use a bicycle bag. Handlebars must be turned inwards, pedals removed, tyres deflated and the bicycle must be wrapped in plastic or cardboard.

Diving Equipment and Licenses
If you're travelling with TUI, carrying diving equipment and you show your diving certificate at check-in, we'll give you an extra 5kg luggage allowance free. If you've got more equipment, you can check it in for an extra charge.
