Cape Air's baggage policy is designed for regional short-haul flights. Cabin bags are limited to one personal item not exceeding 36 linear inches (purse, briefcase, or laptop). Checked baggage allowance includes one checked bag up to 50 lbs and 62 linear inches, plus one gate-checked bag up to 20 lbs and 45 linear inches. Additional baggage up to two more bags may be available depending on space; specific fees and weight limits for additional bags should be confirmed with the airline.

Are baggage fees included in my ticket?
First checked bag fees apply on some routes; the airline does not disclose specific fee amounts on its public information. Contact Cape Air at 508-771-6944 or [email protected] for exact fees on your route.
What if I have more baggage?
Additional baggage beyond the standard allowance may be available on a space-dependent basis. Excess baggage fees are available upon request. Contact the airline directly for pricing and to confirm availability before your flight.
How are linear inches calculated?
Linear inches are the sum of length + width + height of your bag. A 36 linear inch limit means, for example, a bag measuring 22 x 14 x 9 inches (45 total) would exceed the cabin bag limit.
