FAQ

Can I buy extra baggage online after booking?

No. Alliance Airlines publishes no online extra-baggage purchase option; excess baggage is accepted and paid for at the airport check-in counter subject to space availability.

Where do I buy extra baggage?

At the airport check-in counter, where excess pieces are charged $35 each. Manage My Booking (booking reference plus surname) only retrieves direct bookings and offers no published baggage add-on.

When is the deadline to buy extra baggage online?

Excess baggage is handled during check-in: airport check-in opens 90 minutes before departure and closes strictly 30 minutes before departure, so arrive early since excess is subject to space availability.

How many extra bags can I buy, and what are the bag limits?

Extra pieces are limited by aircraft space rather than a published piece cap. Each checked item must be within 158 cm total dimensions and no single bag may exceed 32 kg; cabin baggage is limited to 7 kg total (5 kg on F-50 flights).

How does the airline calculate extra baggage charges?

Flat per-piece model: every passenger on RPT scheduled services gets 1 x 20 kg free, and each additional piece (up to 20 kg) or each bag over 20 kg (up to 32 kg maximum) costs a flat $35.

What are the overweight or oversized baggage rules?

Bags over 20 kg incur a $35 fee up to the 32 kg per-bag maximum. Items exceeding the 158 cm size limit or the weight limit are refused at check-in; there is no published oversized fee.

Do partner-operated or codeshare flights have different baggage rules?

Yes. Flights operated as a codeshare with Virgin Australia (for example Brisbane-Gladstone) are booked via Virgin Australia and follow Virgin's baggage rules. Alliance also cannot check bags through to any connecting flights on other airlines.

Are there any important exceptions or restrictions I should know?

Checked allowances on private charter and FIFO flights are set by the charter client, not the standard 20 kg rule. Excess baggage may travel on a later service and must be collected at the tagged airport, with the passenger covering any delivery costs.
