Checked Baggage

Concept
fare-bundle based allowance (Fly Light / Fly / Fly Grande) rather than cabin class - Vueling operates a single Economy cabin
Economy Class
Fly Light: underseat bag only, both cabin bag and checked bag are paid add-ons. Fly: underseat bag plus a choice of EITHER the overhead cabin bag OR a 25kg checked bag, not both. Fly Grande: underseat bag, overhead cabin bag, and a 25kg checked bag, all included.
Premium Economy
Vueling does not operate a Premium Economy cabin.
Business Class
Vueling does not operate a Business cabin.
First Class
Vueling does not operate a First Class cabin - single Economy cabin only.

Cabin Baggage

Economy Class
1 underseat bag up to 40x30x20cm (16x12x8in), free on every fare, no official weight limit. Overhead cabin bag up to 55x40x20cm (22x16x8in), 10kg (22lb), included in Fly/Fly Grande or purchased separately.
Business And First Class
Not applicable - single Economy cabin.

Special Items

Infants
No distinct free item allowance for strollers/car seats published separately from the standard per-passenger allowance; confirm current family terms at booking.
Sports Equipment
Small instruments that fit the cabin-bag dimensions (55x40x20cm, 10kg) can travel as the cabin bag. Larger or fragile instruments (guitars, cellos) must be checked as special baggage or carried on a purchased extra seat.

Note

Checked bag weight tiers: 15kg, 20kg, 25kg or 30kg, priced from approx. EUR10-120 by route/timing. Excess weight: EUR12/kg over purchased tier, up to 32kg max. Gate fees for unpaid/oversized bags are steep: approx. EUR60-75 (underseat), EUR110-140 (overhead). January 2026 EU Parliament vote on mandatory free cabin bags had not yet changed Vueling's published fare structure as of this writing. Last verified: August 30, 2026.
