Frequently Asked Questions About SunExpress Baggage
How strict is SunExpress with carry-on bag dimensions?
SunExpress has a strictness rating of 6/10. Low-cost carriers frequently place bags in metal measuring boxes at the gate, while full-service airlines are generally more flexible as long as the bag fits in the overhead bin.
Can I bring duty-free shopping bags in addition to my cabin bag?
Yes, standard aviation regulations allow one sealed duty-free shopping bag purchased at airport airside shops in addition to your standard carry-on allowance without incurring extra fees.
How much does overweight baggage cost per kilogram?
If your checked suitcase exceeds the standard 20kg/23kg limit, SunExpress charges $10.00 USD per extra kg at airport check-in desks.
Can two passengers pool or combine their checked luggage weight?
If traveling on the same booking reference, most full-service airlines and European carriers allow weight pooling across booked bags (e.g. 15kg + 25kg = 40kg total for 2 bags). Note that no single bag can exceed 32kg for airport ground handler safety rules.
