SkyTeam extra baggage

All 14 SkyTeam member airlines have combined to implement a consistent extra baggage strategy for their Elite and Elite Plus frequent flyers members.  The new policy, already introduced by a number of SkyTeam members earlier in the year, has been designed to simplify travel by ensuring the same extra baggage allowance for Elite travellers, regardless of Frequent Flyer Programme (FFP), carrier and class of travel flown.

The changes particularly benefit travellers flying on multiple SkyTeam airlines.  Previously, member airlines allowed extra baggage only for Elite and Elite Plus members of their respective FFP, which did not apply to mixed itineraries or other members' flights.

Across all the carriers the extra weight approved is now very simple.  For Elite members 10kg extra and for Elite Plus members 20kg, plus an extra piece allowance for both classes of members. www.skyteam.com
