Our compatriots who often travel abroad are well aware of European low-cost airlines specializing in cheap air transportation. Thanks to these companies, you can fly from one country to another by buying tickets for only a few tens of euros. The Russians have long dreamed of the emergence of such a domestic low-cost airline that would simplify travel around our vast country. After all, it is known that a flight between Russian cities can sometimes cost much more than a trip to another country. A few years ago, the Pobeda airline appeared on the air transportation market. Tickets for its flights were significantly lower than those of other well-known carriers. Every year the popularity of the company increases, which has a positive effect on the growth dynamics of passenger traffic. Today we will tell you about the rules for carrying baggage with Pobeda Airlines, which usually raise a lot of questions among Russiantravelers.

New low-cost airline: a few words about the company

The first attempt to create a low-cost airline that would help the inhabitants of our country to travel inexpensively across its expanses was the Dobrolet air carrier. He managed to work for several years, having won the trust of the Russians literally after the first months of his existence. However, three years ago, Dobrolet was forced to stop its activities due to problems that arose with the maintenance of its liners in Europe. The first low-cost airline was replaced by the Pobeda airline, whose tickets quickly competed with many Russian and foreign companies.

Our compatriots easily entrusted their lives to the new low-cost airline, as it is a subsidiary of Aeroflot. And in our country it is a certain guarantor of quality. Already after one year of operation, the Pobeda airline, whose baggage rules we will discuss in later sections of the article, managed to get into the TOP-10 Russian air carriers. Of course, she took only ninth place in it, which, however, was a good start for the new company and a serious statement about itself.

At the moment Pobeda airlines fly to seventy-five destinations, every year the network of routes is expanding, including new Russian and European cities. For flights, the low-cost airline uses Boeing brand liners, which can simultaneously take on board one hundred and eighty-ninepassengers.

Next year, the number of aircraft of the Pobeda airline will increase from twelve aircraft to forty, and the passenger flow should reach ten million people.

A little about luggage

Many passengers note that Pobeda airline strictly regulates the baggage allowance. This practice, however, is very common among low-cost airlines, because the low cost of a ticket is due to the minimum set of services provided during the flight. According to Russian legislation, the cost of baggage is always included in the ticket price, however, each company can set the parameters of the baggage carried independently. For everything that exceeds the established baggage allowance, Pobeda Airlines charges an additional fee.

When going on a trip, do not forget that many carriers mean by the wording "luggage" the bags that you will check into a special compartment of the aircraft and take with you on board. Therefore, be sure to study the features of baggage allowance with Pobeda Airlines before purchasing a ticket and getting ready to go. And we, in turn, will try to write about it as thoroughly as possible.

Things you need in flight

Victory Airlines limited the luggage that passengers can carry into the cabin as hand luggage to a very narrow list of things. At no extra charge, anyone with a flight ticket can take the following items:

• one women's bag ormen's briefcase;
• paper folders and magazines;
• umbrellas, bouquets of flowers, outerwear and suits in a case;
• oversized equipment (cameras, phones, etc.);
• mobility aids for people with disabilities;
• Baby carriers and nutrition.

It is interesting that backpacks of any size, so beloved by women, cannot be considered free luggage. Pobeda Airlines allows them to be carried on board the aircraft only after an additional payment.

I would like to note that the rules for carrying hand luggage that we have announced are already lightened at the moment. After all, initially only a certain size of women's bags could be taken on board. This restriction has now been lifted.

What can you carry in the cabin of an airliner for money?

Keep in mind that Pobeda airlines have the weight of luggage that you can take on board for an additional fee, as well as its dimensions, are of great importance. Each passenger has the opportunity to pay for only two pieces of hand luggage, with a total weight of not more than ten kilograms. The dimensions of the bags must fit one meter fifteen centimeters.

Permitted to take on board:

• bags and backpacks:
• boxes and bags;
• products in containers and other packaging.

Payment for each piece of baggage that meets the requirements of the air carrier has a single rate. It can be found atcompany website or in the next section of our article.

Pobeda Airlines: prices for travel with hand luggage

For many passengers, it was a discovery that you can pay for hand luggage not only at the airport, but also via the Internet. And doing it online is much more profitable. Judge for yourself - on the site, each piece of hand luggage will cost you nine hundred and ninety-nine rubles, and at the airport they will charge you from one and a half to two thousand rubles. If you plan to fly from a foreign airport, then prepare an amount in the range of twenty-five to thirty-five euros.

Usually, payment is made at the baggage claim and check-in desk. However, many passengers who have already flown with Pobeda more than once do it online and calmly board the cabin with prepaid suitcases.

Baggage: Carriage Rules

If you do not plan to take bags with you to the cabin of the airliner, then you should still study the rules of Pobeda Airlines. The luggage that passengers carry in a special compartment of the airliner also has quite serious restrictions. The cost of each ticket includes the carriage of one bag weighing no more than ten kilograms. Moreover, its size cannot exceed one meter fifty-eight centimeters.

For everything that exceeds the established norm, passengers will have to pay. It's nice that you can carry an unlimited number of bags in the luggage compartment of the aircraft, the main thing is thateach unit weighed no more than twenty kilograms.

Pobeda Airlines: baggage cost

Before you travel, carefully weigh your luggage at home to get an idea of the surcharge that you will need to pay for your bags. For luggage weighing less than fifteen kilograms, a passenger pays an extra two thousand rubles, a bag up to twenty kilograms is paid in the amount of three thousand rubles. However, two pieces of such luggage will cost you five thousand rubles.

If your luggage exceeds twenty kilograms, then for each extra one you will have to pay five hundred rubles. However, a piece of baggage cannot exceed thirty-two kilograms.

Pets on an airliner

Loukoster Pobeda does not prohibit taking animals on board if they have all the certificates and vaccinations necessary for the trip. But do not forget that when buying tickets, you must immediately indicate this fact. Otherwise, the air carrier may refuse you.

Animals, according to the rules of the airline, can only be transported as hand luggage and in carriers. Their dimensions should not exceed one meter fifteen centimeters. Please note that your pet will be weighed during the check-in process. If it does not exceed eight kilograms, then you will calmly go on board, paying one thousand nine hundred ninety-nine rubles. If the weight of your little four-legged traveler exceeds eight kilograms, then they will not let him on board even for additionalmoney.

Oversized baggage

There are cases when passengers need to carry something unusual by plane that does not fit the general rules. In this regard, the low-cost airline has provided a deviation from the list we have already announced and included oversized cargo that can be transported in the baggage compartment of the airliner.

Do not forget that such luggage cannot exceed twenty kilograms. It can be a bicycle, sports equipment or fishing tackle. The air carrier also allows the transport of firearms on its liners in a special compartment. The main thing is that his weight should not be more than ten kilograms.

If you pay for the carriage of such baggage through the airline's website, then one unit will cost you about two thousand rubles. Payment at the Russian airport will be already four thousand rubles. When departing from European countries, the cost of transporting oversized cargo at the check-in counter is fifty-five euros.

Things bought in duty-free shops

Passengers ask a lot of questions about the transportation on board of airliners of various items purchased in duty free. And this is not surprising, because they do not fall into any category. Of course, small things that can be put in an ordinary handbag are not paid extra. However, any larger items you plan to bring on board must be paid for.

In Russian airports, you will have to pay two thousandrubles, when departing from European countries on Pobeda low-cost flights, get ready to pay at least thirty-five euros for baggage from duty free.

Every journey should start with a clear budget. The above information will help you correctly assess the need for certain things that you want to take with you on a trip. After all, do not forget that the Russian air carrier Pobeda provides favorable prices for air transportation only to those passengers who do not take a lot of luggage with them.
