Express Air baggage allowance
Express Air ceased operations in 2021. Specific baggage allowance information was not documented before the airline's closure.
Cost-saving advice: If you booked with Express Air and still hold an active ticket or have unresolved baggage claims, contact your credit card issuer, travel insurance provider, or original booking agent immediately to understand your options.
For travelers now flying regional routes in Indonesia, baggage policies vary significantly by airline. Current carriers serving Makassar and Tanjung Pinang typically include:
| Item | Typical Limit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Checked baggage | Varies by airline | Usually 20–30 kg for economy; verify with your carrier |
| Carry-on baggage | Varies by airline | Typically 7–10 kg; size restrictions apply |
| Personal items | Usually included | Small bag, laptop bag, or backpack typically free |
Where can I find current baggage rules for regional Indonesian flights?
Visit the website of your chosen airline (Garuda Indonesia, Lion Air, Batik Air) or contact them directly. Baggage allowances vary by fare type and route, so always verify before booking.
What if I need to transport excess baggage?
Purchase additional baggage allowance when booking, or contact the airline before your flight. Excess baggage fees vary and can be substantial; buying in advance is usually cheaper than at the airport.
Are sports equipment and musical instruments handled differently?
Yes. Items like bicycles, surfboards, and instruments often require advance notice and may have special fees or packing requirements. Contact the airline's baggage department before traveling.
