Low cost carrier Air Arabia has introduced a new online pre-booked baggage policy, enabling passengers to pay for only the baggage weight they need. The new policy, effective for all tickets purchased on or after July 1, allows passengers when booking a flight with Air Arabia to pre-book a checked baggage weight allowance (20kg, 30kg or 40kg), with no limitation on the number of pieces. Passengers who pre-book a 20kg checked baggage allowance will pay just QR10, while passengers booking 30kg will pay QR20. Subject to availability, a 40kg checked baggage allowance can also be pre-booked for QR100. These rates, which are the lowest available in the market, apply to one-way tickets and are inclusive of all taxes. The airline also announced that it has raised its cabin baggage allowance from 7kg to 10kg. Pre-booked baggage can be done through all sales channels: airarabia.com, Air Arabia ticketing offices, call centres, and travel agents. Any booking made prior to July 1 will be unaffected.
