FAQ
Can I buy extra baggage online before my Iran Air flight?
Yes - for flights from Vienna, the Iran Air Vienna office sells prepaid luggage packages through the "Additional Luggage" request form on iranair.at. The main booking site iranair.com was not reachable during research, so check with your local Iran Air office for other routes.
Where do I buy extra baggage?
Buy the prepaid luggage package online via the request form at iranair.at/en/request/luggage (Vienna-Tehran only), or pay excess baggage at the airport check-in counter at the per-kg rate. Iran Air office sites such as iranair.at (Vienna) and iranair.it (Rome/Milan) also provide baggage rules for their routes.
When is the deadline to buy the prepaid luggage package?
The luggage package must be purchased up to 24 hours before departure; the Vienna office advertises it as a way to avoid the higher per-kg cost at the airport.
What are the baggage limits on Iran Air?
Hand baggage is 1 piece with a maximum weight of 7 kg (the Italy office specifies 45x30x20 cm and allows 5 kg in economy and 7 kg in business). Each checked bag has a maximum weight of 23 kg; the personal free checked allowance is printed on the ticket or booking confirmation - the Italy office lists 30 kg in economy and 40 kg in business for its routes.
How does Iran Air calculate extra baggage charges?
Iran Air uses weight-based pricing: excess weight is charged per kg at the airport (EUR 12/kg at Vienna, EUR 15/kg on Milan/Rome routes), while the Vienna office sells prepaid packages in 10 kg blocks at EUR 80 per 10 kg for the Vienna-Tehran route. There is no publicly listed per-piece extra bag rate.
Is it cheaper to buy the luggage package online than at the airport?

What are the overweight baggage rules?
Iran Air operates a weight-based system on these routes: any weight above the allowance is charged per kg at the airport (EUR 12/kg at Vienna, EUR 15/kg on Milan/Rome routes). The Vienna office publishes a maximum of 23 kg per checked bag; no separate oversized-dimension fees are published by the Vienna or Italy offices.
Are there route restrictions on extra baggage purchase?
