Can I bring a musical instrument on board?
Musical instruments can be carried on board, subject to certain conditions.
Smaller instruments can be carried as hand luggage as long as they do not exceed 7kg in weight and have dimensions equal to or less than 53cm x 34cm x 22cm.
Instruments being carried as checked-in luggage in the hold of the aircraft should not exceed a length x height x width total of 158cm. Please note that all items are carried in the hold at the owner's risk. Hold luggage exceeding a total of 158cm may be subject to outsize handling charges on the day of travel.
It is possible to purchase an additional seat for larger instruments that the owner would prefer not to carry as checked luggage. Instruments will be carried on the seat nearest the window and will be secured there for the duration of the flight. Passengers wishing to travel in this way should make their reservation with our call centre on 0870 241 8202. Please note that the maximum size of any instrument carried in the cabin is 140cm x 60cm x 32cm.
