What to expect
Transavia runs the Ryanair model with one twist: the free 40 × 30 × 20 cm (≈ 15.7 × 11.8 × 7.8 in) under-seat bag and the paid 55 × 40 × 25 cm (≈ 21.6 × 15.7 × 9.8 in) cabin bag share a single 10 kg (≈ 22 lb) weight allowance between them. Dimensions include wheels and handles, bags are checked at the airport, and anything too big or too heavy pays a gate fee from €70 and goes into the hold.
Soft bag vs hard case
Transavia verifies size and weight at the airport, so a soft, frameless bag has the same edge as on Ryanair: it compresses into the 40 × 30 × 20 cm (≈ 15.7 × 11.8 × 7.8 in) under-seat space. And with 10 kg (≈ 22 lb) shared across both bags, every gram of bag structure — frames, hard shells, heavy wheels — is weight you can't pack.
Boarding tips
- The 10 kg (≈ 22 lb) limit covers your hand luggage and cabin bag together — weigh them as a pair, not one by one.
- Book the cabin bag in advance; at the gate it's the fee from €70 and the bag goes into the hold.
- Smart and Max fares include the cabin bag and Priority Boarding — on the basic fare you only have the under-seat bag.
- An umbrella, a walking stick and one duty-free bag are allowed on top of the free allowance.
