FAQ

Can I buy extra baggage online after booking?

Yes. Subject to availability, you can add extra baggage allowance to your booking online via 'Manage Booking' on salamair.com, or through the Call Centre or a travel agent.

Where do I buy extra baggage?

On salamair.com under 'Manage Booking' (enter your Booking Reference and Last Name), during the initial booking flow on the Extras step, via the 24/7 Call Centre, or through an appointed travel agent.

How does SalamAir calculate extra baggage charges?

Online, extra baggage is sold as weight packages (e.g. 10/20/30 kg, one piece each; some routes 20/30/40 kg) with route-dependent prices. At the airport, excess weight is charged per kilo by departure sector: OMR 4, 5 or 6 plus Airport Charges, or OMR 7 for connecting flights.

What are the baggage limits?

Hand baggage: one 5 kg underseat bag (33x25x20 cm) is included; a 10 kg overhead Trolley Bag (45x56x25 cm) can be purchased. Checked baggage: each piece must not exceed 32 kg or 160 cm (W+D+L); allowances of 10/20/30 kg allow 1 piece, 40 kg allows 2 pieces.

When should I buy extra baggage?

Buy before departure: online weight packages are shown in the booking flow or Manage Booking, while airport excess weight is charged per kilo at the departure airport rate (OMR 4-7 per kg plus Airport Charges) and is subject to availability.

Is it cheaper to buy extra baggage online than at the airport?

Pre-booking online at a package rate is generally cheaper than the airport per-kg rate (OMR 4-7 per kg plus Airport Charges), and airport availability is not guaranteed. Live package prices are shown during booking or in Manage Booking.

What are the overweight or oversized baggage rules?

Bags above your allowance are charged per extra kilo at the departure airport rate (OMR 4-7 per kg plus Airport Charges), subject to space. No single piece may exceed 32 kg or 160 cm; oversized or odd-shaped baggage incurs additional charges and is subject to space availability.

Are there any exceptions or restrictions I should know?

SalamAir assigns excess baggage availability per flight; if excess baggage options are unavailable during booking you must comply with the baggage allocation of your booking class, and unbooked or unpurchased excess baggage may be refused at check-in for operational reasons.
