Features of transporting animals on S7 flights



Transportation of animals on S7 flights is paid as excess baggage, based on the actual weight of the animal or bird together with the container and regardless of the number of other things the passenger has. The only exception is the transportation of a guide dog traveling with a blind passenger in economy class.

To fly with a pet, you need to get the approval of the airline. To do this, send a request for the transportation of an animal no later than 48 hours before the flight departure.

If you are traveling with a pet, you cannot check in online. You can pay for the transportation of an animal at the airport ticket office or at the check-in desk.

When registering, you will need the following documents for the animal:
a veterinary passport, with rabies vaccination marks made at least 1 month before departure, and a certificate of the animal.

Transportation of animals in the cabin

Pets can be transported in the aircraft cabin (2 pets) in a cage or container, the size of which should not exceed 115 cm in the sum of three dimensions, the height should not exceed 20 cm, and the weight should not exceed 8 kg together with the animal. You can also take a soft carrying bag, if it is not larger than 55×40×25 cm. It is strictly forbidden to let an animal on the plane.

A guide dog accompanying a blind passenger must have a certificate of appropriate training, a collar with a leash and a muzzle. There are no restrictions on the weight and size of the guide dog.
Most often, a passenger with a lack of vision is put in the tail of the aircraft, and the dog is tied by a leash to a chair at the feet of the owner for the duration of the flight.

Transportation of animals in baggage

In case of exceeding the rules and regulations for transporting animals in hand luggage, you need to check in the pet as special baggage.

In special baggage, only cats, dogs, birds weighing up to 50 kg are allowed, if you are flying to EU countries - 32 kg.

Transportation of animals as cargo

On flights of S7 partner airlines, animals can only be transported as cargo. To clarify the information, you should check the conditions with the airline operating the flight.

Search for cheap flights

Each airline applies restrictions on carrying cargo on an aircraft. These standards are presented on the websites of air carriers, and when booking a ticket, be sure to familiarize yourself with them. Otherwise, if you take excess baggage with you, you will have to pay for it in accordance with the proposed rates. In S7 airlines, baggage allowances and rules for its carriage do not differ much from the fares of other Russian air carriers.

Baggage options

Important! It is necessary to distinguish between checked-in suitcases and items that you will take with you into the cabin. They have different restrictions.

All baggage parameters are divided into three categories:

  1. Number of places. Each suitcase or bag carried is considered one piece. If their number is more than one, a surcharge is assigned.
  2. Weight. For S7 baggage, as with other companies, if the suitcase is overweight, you will have to pay at the established rate. This also applies if your bag exceeds the free baggage allowance.
  3. Dimensions. Checked baggage items, when summing up their length, height and width, must fit into 203 cm. You can take a bag into the cabin that does not exceed 55x40x20 cm.

To check the compliance of hand luggage with the allowed standards, special restrictive cells are located near the check-in counters.

Cost and different rates

Three years ago, S7 introduced a tariff system, according to which you can choose the option that suits you. Each of them provides for restrictions on baggage transportation:

  1. Economy Basic. Registered cargo is paid separately. Its maximum weight is 23 kg. It is allowed to take an object weighing up to 10 kg into the cabin.
  2. Economy Flexible. One piece of baggage weighing up to 23 kg is allowed free of charge.
  3. Business Basic. Hand luggage - up to 15 kg, suitcase for the luggage compartment - up to 32 kg.
  4. Business Flexible. Two suitcases weighing up to 32 kg each are allowed, a bag weighing up to 15 kg can be taken into the cabin.
Important! Dimensions for hand luggage and checked baggage remain standard for all types of fares.

If you buy a ticket at the Economy Basic fare at S7, then the baggage allowance will be at least 2,500 rubles. Depending on the flight zone, it may be more, but this amount is charged at the airport. And when applying for an online travel document and at the same time a piece of luggage, you will receive a 28% discount. Thus, the price is reduced to 1800 rubles.

By purchasing a ticket from S7, you can also buy the extra baggage service. This is a new savings offer. How much a possible surcharge for excess baggage directly at the airport costs is determined by S7 rules. It depends on the flights or destinations served by S7, if excess baggage is allowed on the company's aircraft.

Skiers are allowed to carry snowboards, skis and equipment free of charge, but with a weight limit. According to S7 Economy fares - up to 23 kg, Business - up to 32 kg, the cost of excess baggage is determined in the general manner. The dimensions of the sports cargo are not limited.

How much to pay in excess

The S7 airline has developed rules for charging additional fees for excess baggage.

For example, for the second piece of excess baggage, the surcharge will be charged as follows: 2000 + 2000 = 4000 rubles.

Some rules for calculating the cost of the S7 baggage allowance:

  1. If the flight is a multi-part flight, then this amount must be paid only for one part of the flight in one direction.
  2. The full surcharge for a flight with a transfer on domestic flights will increase by 2 times.
  3. When connecting with a flight to other countries, the surcharge is calculated by doubling the one-time cost for international flights.
  4. If the transfer exceeds 23 hours, then the additional payment is calculated at the Contact Center.

Important! The cost of overweight of 1 kg of baggage on S7 aircraft is not calculated. Surcharge is total within excess weight.

There are several ways to pay for extra baggage at S7:

  • when booking a ticket on the s7.ru website;
  • in the S7 Airlines mobile app;
  • in an Aeroport;
  • at the Contact Center.

Additional norm

The Extra Baggage Allowance service will help you book extra kilos in advance. With it, you can buy one or two extra pieces or pay for excess weight of a free suitcase (up to 32 kg).

S7 airlines have set the cost of the additional baggage allowance in accordance with the time of application.

The cost of an extra piece of baggage on an S7 aircraft is calculated using a special formula based on the tariffs for exceeding the standards adopted for certain destinations.

The cost of the service is determined by a discount that will affect the price of additional baggage on S7 aircraft:

  1. Purchasing the service at the time of booking - 20% discount when calculating the excess freight surcharge.
  2. Purchase when booking online 4 hours before the departure of the aircraft - 10% discount.
If you buy the service less than 4 hours before departure, you will not receive any discounts.

Important! For non-standard cargo over 32 kg, exceeding the permitted dimensions, with more than two additional pieces, the service does not apply.

When you pay extra for additional suitcases under this service, and then cancel the flight or the flight is canceled, the money must be returned.

Transportation of animals

Animals are transported in S7 as a paid excess cargo, which means that you have to pay extra for their transportation, even if you are entitled to a free piece of hand luggage or checked cargo.

You can arrange transportation directly at the airport. Not later than 48 hours before departure, you must notify the Contact Center that you will be flying with an animal.

Where the animal will travel depends on its weight. S7 only allows pets in the cabin: dogs, cats, birds. Each animal in the cabin up to 8 kg must be in a cage or container made of plastic, which must provide it with air access and a free position. The same requirements apply to the animal container when transported in the luggage compartment. The dimensions of the cage for hand luggage must be no more than 115 cm in total. The weight is determined by the total: animal + cage.

Pets that do not meet these parameters are transported in the luggage compartment.

Two individuals can be transported in one container when their weight is up to 14 kg and they are capable of peaceful behavior towards each other. Otherwise, if you exceed the weight in the luggage compartment, you can place a cage with one animal.

Important! Animals in the baggage compartment weighing more than 32 kg are often not allowed on international flights, except for flights to the CIS countries. On domestic flights - upon agreement with the Contact Center and only if there are available seats in the luggage compartment.

Surcharge for transportation of animals on domestic routes:

  • in the cockpit (weight up to 8 kg, dimensions up to 115 cm) - 2000 rubles;
  • in the luggage compartment (weight up to 32 kg, dimensions up to 203 cm) - 4000 rubles, the same with a weight of up to 50 kg - 8000 rubles;
  • dimensions more than 203 cm, weight up to 23 kg - 4000 rubles, up to 32 kg - 6000 rubles, up to 50 kg - 8000 rubles.

Surcharge for transportation on directions to the CIS countries:

  • in hand luggage - 35 euros;
  • in the luggage compartment, a standard cage less than 203 cm - 70 euros (weight 23-32 kg);
  • cage over 203 cm (weight 23-32 kg) - 105 euros.

Surcharge on international flights:

  • flight in the cockpit of an S7 aircraft - 50 euros;
  • in the luggage compartment - 100 euros (weight 23-32 kg);
  • sizes over 203 cm (weight 23-32 kg) are subject to a surcharge of 150 euros.

For the transportation of animals, in addition to the surcharge, you will need veterinary documents certifying the state of health of the animal.

What else to consider

If you are flying with S7 at the Economy Basic fare, then the baggage surcharge will offset the benefit of the reduced ticket price. The best option is to fly without a checked-in suitcase, only with hand luggage.

S7 does not allow excess hand luggage to be taken into the cabin, it must be placed in baggage, and the additional payment is made in accordance with the general rules.

Hand luggage, in addition to the bag or item established by the regulations, includes:

  • outerwear;
  • flower bouquets;
  • duty-free goods (up to 3 kg, total dimensions 75 cm).
It is better to buy additional baggage from the S7 carrier online in advance to avoid unnecessary expenses.

If the cargo exceeds 203 cm and 32 kg, only S7 can decide on its delivery. The defining moments in this case are the size of the luggage compartment and the degree of its occupancy. If you are carrying such a cargo, be sure to call the Contact Center in advance.

By strictly following the rules and being guided by the variety of tariffs, you will be able to carry the necessary cargo with minimal costs and without unpleasant surprises before departure.


One of the major Russian airlines based at the Moscow airport, S7 Siberia serves passengers from all over the world. Flights are operated to domestic and international destinations. Millions of customers get the opportunity to fly with the company's aircraft, established in Novosibirsk. Therefore, long flights are the most popular. And in order to comfortably relax abroad or in the southern resort of Russia, tourists collect voluminous suitcases and bags.

When buying a ticket for an airliner, passengers will certainly wonder how to carry luggage on an S7 aircraft, and how much does it cost? What is its allowable weight? What can I take into the cabin, and what can I check in the luggage compartment? Finally, do you have to pay extra for it? What things are considered prohibited for transportation on an airplane and so on. We will understand the current prices and tariffs for this service this year 2017.

The basic rules of international airlines are the same. But each carrier has its own nuances that you should be aware of in advance. Consider the conditions for transporting things by S7 aircraft in 2017. Hand luggage is part of the luggage that is allowed to be taken into the cabin of the aircraft upon landing. The list of items contains several items in well-defined categories. The size and weight of hand luggage is also of great importance.

Bags and packages carried into the cabin should not be too bulky. Be guided by the permitted dimensions and weight. In economy class, for hand luggage, you will be offered one piece with a maximum weight of 10 kg and a maximum size of 55 x 40 x 20 cm. Business class tourists are entitled to 2 pieces of baggage with a total weight of up to 15 kg and with the same dimensions. It is recommended to take the most necessary things to the salon in the form of:

  • mobile devices, tablets;
  • keys;
  • cash;
  • important papers and documents;
  • valuable jewelry;
  • fragile, breakable products;
  • video cameras and photographic devices.

When traveling with small children, you can take a stroller and reconstituted infant formula. The allowable volume of drinks brought into the cabin should not exceed 100 ml. per person. If you are traveling as a family, the liquid must be poured into separate containers.

Passengers who need constant availability of medicines and injections must prepare a health certificate in advance. According to the rules of 2017, the airline allows disabled and sick people with injuries to take crutches and a wheelchair into the cabin if the patient cannot move without them.

In the case when this is not necessary, you will have to pay extra for excess weight and dimensions. The same applies to musicians, who are allowed not to check in their instrument as luggage on the plane, but will require an additional payment for an extra seat if the overall dimensions or weight limits are exceeded.

Despite the high status of an air carrier, Novosibirsk Airlines introduces favorable rates for domestic and charter flights. Therefore, when purchasing a ticket, a passenger can rely on free baggage transportation if certain conditions are met. They consist of the following parameters:

  • compliance with the weight of baggage;
  • a certain number of seats in accordance with the flight class;
  • the sum of three measurements in terms of the dimensions of the box with things is no more than 203 cm.

Hand luggage is also limited in size in length - 35-40 cm, in height 53-55 cm, in thickness - 15-20 cm. In total, such a bag should not exceed 110-115 cm. Find out how much baggage transportation costs in S7 airlines, you can on the pages of the site S7.ru. It also contains information on all matters relating to airline travel and related services.

Members of the bonus program from S7 are provided with advantageous offers that are also applicable to baggage allowance. How much will a discounted flight cost? In 2017, the cost of additional baggage for status clients with Silver, Gold and Platinum cards is included in the ticket price (when issued on the company's website). As a result, the passenger can pack another 23 kg bag.

The safety and comfort of all passengers when flying on board an S7 aircraft is at the forefront of quality service. Therefore, in 2017, according to the rules of air transportation of baggage, it is strictly forbidden to take with you to the cabin:

  • weapons, as well as toys made in his likeness;
  • piercing and cutting objects, including nail scissors;
  • shampoos, balms, various types of creams;
  • aerosols, gas cartridges;
  • perfume and toilet water.

If the passenger has any disease requiring medical support during the flight, then the relevant certificate must be provided to the airport employee when checking in for the aircraft. Then the person will be allowed to take the necessary medical preparations on board the aircraft.

The volume of liquids per person is particularly limited. If the traveler has chosen a budget flight option, then he may not count on lunch on the plane, since meals in the cabin are not available. Then it is recommended to bring some food with you. Water, juices or other liquids must be packed in separate containers of one liter per passenger. The same rules apply for regular economy class flights.

How much is luggage on the plane

Carriage of things in the luggage compartment of the aircraft provides for a weight limit of 23 kg. In business class, the number of things increased to 32 kilograms. The cost of transportation depends on the class of the ticket.

When purchasing the cheapest tickets of the basic economy class, customers must pay a certain fare for the carriage of luggage weighing up to 23 kg and with a total dimension of less than 203 cm along the perimeter. This year, the following tariffs are offered, offering transportation of luggage on S7 aircraft:

  • economy basic - for one baggage segment the payment is 2500 rubles;
  • economy flexible - one free piece of baggage weighing no more than 23 kg, up to 203 cm in total;
  • business basic - one piece of baggage allows a weight of less than 32 kg and dimensions of up to 203 cm in three dimensions, which is accepted without payment;
  • flexible business - two free bags up to 32 kg and a maximum of 203 cm in folded length, width and thickness of the bag.

For larger dimensions, an additional fee will be charged in accordance with the rules established in 2017. Holders of a gold or silver card receive one more free piece of luggage in the compartment with a maximum weight of 23 kg. Platinum card holders have the same privilege, but the allowable luggage weight for them is increased to 32 kg.

In certain areas, favorable standards increase. Detailed information can be found on the airline's website www.s7.ru or by phone.

Prohibited for transportation in the transport compartment of an airliner are various items and substances, for example, radioactive, poisonous, oxidizing and other dangerous substances that can lead to an emergency situation on board. Also, do not pack in a suitcase:

  • explosive substances;
  • all types of weapons of cold, firearms, gas type;
  • flammable items;
  • perishable food products.

Passengers need to be careful about the condition of their own travel items. After all, during the passage of control at the airport, an employee can detect prohibited items and confiscate them. In addition, then you will have to pass an additional check. If you delay before the departure of the plane, you run the risk of being late for the flight.

Before the flight, things should be carefully packed in a specially purchased suitcase. To avoid problems with a long search for things on the tape after landing, choose a bag with a bright color or pattern on the outside. It will be clearly visible among other people's luggage. In preparation for the flight, inspect it for extra tags and stickers from past travels. They need to be removed to avoid confusion.

There should be no protruding sharp corners, so as not to damage someone else's luggage. The packaging must be intact, without damage. Do not combine several things into one whole. Such luggage will not be accepted at the airport. By following simple rules, armed with useful information, you will avoid trouble and maintain a joyful mood.

Baggage and hand luggage on the plane

S7 Airline is a Russian air carrier founded in 1992. Based at Tolmachevo Airport (Novosibirsk). Until 2006, it was called "Siberia", but then a serious rebranding was made. Performs regular and charter flights, both in Russia and abroad.

How much carry-on luggage does the S7 allow and what are the content restrictions?

Dimensions

Hand luggage s7 (more precisely, each seat) cannot be larger than 55×40×20 centimeters. In this case, this is absolutely not a whim of the airline, but a limitation dictated by the fact that the passenger must put an object (bag, backpack, etc.) on a lockable shelf near the ceiling, or under the seat in front (of their choice). And the space there is not unlimited - after all, for example, up to 180 people can fly simultaneously in an Airbus A320, and there should be enough space for their luggage.

Aircraft company S7

Note! In some places (near emergency exits, in the front row), you can’t put things under the chair. Therefore, they need to be placed (at least during takeoff and landing) only on a special shelf above your head.

How is the size of hand luggage controlled?

As a rule, airline employees do not approach passengers with tape measures at the airport - this is not necessary. Special frames-templates are installed near the racks. If an item (suitcase, backpack, etc.) fits in such a frame, it can be transported free of charge.

The passenger can carry out the corresponding check independently, even before check-in. At the same time, it is not at all a fact that all those flying will have to go through such a procedure. Often the dimensions are evaluated visually, but if they already arouse suspicion (for example, a suitcase or backpack is clearly larger than 55 × 40 × 20), then they may already be asked to put the item in a frame to check compliance.

Weight

One piece of hand luggage carried on an S7 aircraft, according to the rules, cannot weigh more than 10 kg (for economy class fares - Economy Basic and Economy Flexible) or 15 kg (for business class fares - Business Basic and Business Flexible).

Number of seats

In hand luggage - 1 seat for economy class and 2 seats for business class.

S7 carry-on baggage check area

What can be carried in hand luggage in addition to the specified allowance

The rules of S7, agreed with the current legislation, define the following list:

  • a handbag, backpack or briefcase, the weight of which does not exceed 5 kg, and the dimensions (according to the sum of three dimensions) - 75 cm;
  • outerwear (type is not regulated);
  • a bouquet of flowers (its size and weight are not specified);
  • suit in a suitcase;
  • goods purchased in duty-free shops at the airport of departure (including liquids) packed in a sealed (sealed) bag with a check attached to it. At the same time, the overall dimensions of such a package in the sum of three dimensions cannot exceed 75 cm, and the weight - 3 kg.
  • crutches, canes, walkers, rollators, a folding wheelchair and other similar devices used by a passenger with a disability. During the flight, he will need to remove such a thing on a closing luggage rack (under the ceiling), or put it under a seat that is one row ahead;
  • medicines or diet food. The quantity is determined by the passenger's need during the flight;
  • a baby cradle, car seat and other accessories for a child under two years old, as well as a baby carriage or a child car seat for a child under 11 years old, if the dimensions of such an item do not exceed 55 × 40 × 20 cm and they can be placed on a shelf above the seat, or on floor, under the front seat.

Baby stroller

Note! Baby carriages, seats, cradles and other restraint systems can be taken with you on an airplane free of charge only if the child for whom they are intended is traveling on the same flight. In the case when the stroller is transported without a child, the standard requirements for hand luggage and baggage apply to its carriage.

Transportation of liquids

Liquid in this context is understood not only as a substance in a liquid state. These are equated to objects (including food), the consistency of which is pasty or creamy. These are sauces, creams, pastes, gels, aerosols, canned food and much more. That is why, for example, you can freely carry hard cheese in hand luggage, but if the variety is soft (camembert, brie, ricotta, mozzarella, feta and others), appropriate restrictions are imposed on it. Or you can put olives “on their own” in hand luggage, but if the package contains oil or other liquid in addition to them, then the following rules come into force. The same applies to cosmetics.

So, you can carry liquids in your hand luggage, but following certain requirements.

  1. The volume of each container cannot be more than 100 ml. That is, if the toothpaste is in a 125-ml tube, the airport security staff will most likely take it away at the control;

Note! Packaging does not have to be original. With an aerosol deodorant or shaving gel, this will not work due to the pressure inside the bottle, but, for example, shampoo can be easily poured into a container of the allowed size (up to 100 ml inclusive).

  1. The containers must be placed in a transparent bag with a zipper (usually a zip zipper is used). Its volume is also limited - it cannot be more than 1 liter;
  2. If the passenger does not have such a package, it is damaged (torn) or does not meet the requirements, then the airport employee can issue it free of charge, or offer to purchase it for a small amount.
  3. This package must be removed from the main piece of hand luggage (bag, backpack, etc.) and placed on the tape at the security control separately for scanning.

Bag for packing liquids in hand luggage

Additional Information! Baby food (if the passenger is traveling with a child) is not subject to the 100 ml limit per container. But there is no need to take water - the stewardess will bring it upon request.

What can not be carried as hand luggage:

  • piercing objects. Any, without exception. Even such harmless, at first glance, as nail scissors, or a nail file, will be confiscated. However, plastic disposable knives and forks without pointed ends are allowed;
  • toxic objects, as well as poisons;
  • explosive and combustible substances;
  • corrosive, oxidizing substances;
  • weapons (there are separate requirements for their transportation);
  • radioactive items;
  • other things that the security officer considers dangerous.

The general criterion in this case is clear - you can not take on board something that can injure or kill other passengers or crew members, as well as arrange a terrorist attack on board (make an explosive device, etc.). Hence the very stringent requirements for liquids, which many passengers perceive with hostility. But in the modern world, extra precautions are not superfluous.

What can not be carried in hand luggage

Exceeding the size and quantity of hand luggage

Excess carry-on baggage cannot be booked with S7 Airlines - even for extra money. Everything superfluous (that is, that which does not fit into the established norms) must be checked in as luggage. Depending on the tariff, an additional fee may be charged for this - the cost varies accordingly. Therefore, it is recommended that a passenger, even when buying a ticket (especially at a basic, baggage-free fare), decide whether it is possible to meet the requirements for the weight and size of hand luggage in a particular case, or whether he should immediately buy additional baggage and be calm. Indeed, according to S7 tariffs, the fee for baggage at the airport is much more than directly in the process of purchasing an air ticket. Therefore, trying to save a relatively small amount can be costly in practice.

On a note! S7 Airlines imposes fairly loyal requirements for passengers' hand luggage. This follows from the fact that even those who bought the ticket at the cheapest fare are allowed to take a bag, backpack, or other item weighing 10 kg into the cabin. Whereas some competitors have already lowered this threshold to the minimum allowed by law of 5 kg.

For this reason, the number of those who choose Economy Basic is increasing. Indeed, with certain tricks, a suitcase or backpack 55 × 40 × 20 is quite enough for a vacation lasting a week or two, or even more. There were no new additions (changes, restrictions, etc.) in 2018, and whether they will be is unknown.

Restrictions on the contents of hand luggage are not imposed by the airline. They are established by international aviation regulatory authorities, these rules are followed at each airport.

All baby cradles or car seats of any size when transporting a child under 2 years old, as well as strollers when transporting a child under the age of 11 years (inclusive) are carried free of charge in excess of the standard baggage allowance or in addition to carry-on baggage.

The cradle of a collapsible stroller is allowed for transportation in the aircraft cabin if its dimensions do not exceed 55x40x20. A folding stroller cane is checked in as luggage. A stroller without a child under 11 years old is transported on a common basis.
