Aerocardal baggage allowance
ChileAerocardal's baggage allowance is tailored to the specific flight type and aircraft assigned. Because the airline operates charter and medical services rather than standardized commercial schedules, baggage policies are customized per booking rather than published in fixed tiers.
| Item | Limit | Included |
|---|---|---|
| Checked baggage | Varies by aircraft and charter agreement | Confirm at booking |
| Cabin baggage | Typically one small bag; restrictions apply on smaller aircraft | Included |
| Medical equipment / ICU apparatus | Carried as required for patient care | Included in medical transport contracts |
| Excess baggage | Subject to weight and space availability | Additional charges apply |
For charter flights, baggage capacity depends on the aircraft type assigned and the distance being flown. Smaller turboprops and helicopters have more restrictive limits than jets. Medical transport flights prioritize life-support equipment; passenger baggage is secondary.
What should I do if I have oversize or overweight luggage?
Inform Aerocardal at the time of booking. The airline will assess feasibility based on your assigned aircraft and may charge additional fees or recommend alternative solutions. Never assume oversized items will be accommodated without prior approval.
Are there restrictions on hazardous materials or special items?
Yes. Medical oxygen, certain medications, and other controlled items require advance notification and documentation. Weapons, explosives, and other dangerous goods are prohibited. Contact Aerocardal with a detailed inventory of any special items before your flight.
Can I bring sports equipment or musical instruments?
Possibly, depending on size and the aircraft type. Notify the airline at booking. Larger items may travel as checked baggage with additional fees, or may not fit on smaller turboprops and helicopters.
