Label	Amount	Notes
Adults and children (2+ years)	No free checked baggage	Hold baggage is purchase-only: you can add up to three 22 kg bags per person per flight (excluding infants). Original wording on /en/baggage: "You can add up to three 22kg bags per person per flight (excluding infants)."

Infants (under 2 years, no seat)	10 kg extra free with hold bag on booking	Conditional free allowance: if you have hold luggage on your booking, Jet2 automatically increases your allowance by an extra 10 kg per infant, free of charge — added by the Red Team at check-in and does not need pre-booking. Original FAQ Hold Baggage wording: "Although infants don't have their own checked baggage allowance, if you have hold luggage on your booking, we'll automatically increase your allowance by an extra 10kg per infant, free of charge. That gives you some more room for any extra items you want to check in for your infant. This additional allowance does not need to be pre-booked – our Red Team will add this on to your booking at check-in." Without accompanying hold bag, infants have Nil checked allowance.
Children/infants equipment	2 items per child/infant	Up to two items per child or infant free of charge: collapsible pushchair/pram/buggy, car seat/booster seat, baby carrier, or travel cot.
