LATAM baggage, made simple

    How LATAM baggage generally works

    General guidance. Your exact allowance depends on fare, cabin, route and LATAM Pass status.

    Carry-on and personal item:

    Most fares include a carry-on plus a personal item, but the lightest fares can limit this on some routes. Always confirm for your specific ticket.

    Checked bags vary by fare and route:

    Some branded fares and cabins include a checked bag while others charge separately, and allowances differ between domestic South American flights and long-haul international routes. Overweight and oversize bags cost more.

    Status and card perks:

    Higher LATAM Pass tiers and eligible cards can add a checked-bag allowance for you and companions on the same reservation.

    Add bags before the airport:

    Pre-paying a checked bag online is generally cheaper than adding it at the counter — and faster on the day.

    Special and oversize items:

    Sports equipment, instruments and oversize items usually need advance arrangement and follow specific size and weight rules.

    Allowances and excess-bag charges vary by branded fare, cabin, route and status, and change often. We don't publish bag prices — tell us your ticket and we'll confirm your exact allowance and pre-pay bags for you.

    Frequently asked

    Does my fare include a checked bag?+
    It depends on the branded fare and route — some LATAM fares and cabins include one, others charge separately, and international long-haul allowances often differ from domestic South American flights. Give us your confirmation number and we'll tell you precisely what's included.
    Can I bring a carry-on on Economy Basic?+
    On many routes, yes — but the lightest fares can restrict cabin baggage on certain routes, so it's worth confirming. Tell us your ticket and route and we'll check exactly what you can carry on.
    How do I use my LATAM Pass or card baggage benefit?+
    Make sure your LATAM Pass number and the eligible card are on the reservation, and the benefit typically applies for you and companions on the same booking. We can add your number so it isn't missed.
    What about a stroller, sports gear or an instrument?+
    These are usually accepted with specific rules and often advance arrangement. Tell us what you're carrying and we'll set it up so nothing is refused at the gate.
