Volaris Airlines has always been known for its stringent baggage policy. The amount of carry-on and checked baggage depends on your fare type; therefore, you must be familiar with the fare terms and conditions before purchasing tickets.

If you are flying with Volaris and wondering how much cabin luggage you can bring on the flight, then this guide is for you. We’ve compiled all the key details of the Volaris Baggage Policy here to ease passengers. Scroll through the information and pack your bags accordingly.

How Much Carry-On Weight Can I Bring on Volaris Flights?

Volaris Airlines offers a decent cabin luggage policy to ease travelers. Here’s a quick rundown of the size and weight limits of the cabin baggage. Scroll through the details before packing your stuffs.

  • Volaris Airlines allows two cabin bags on board, regardless of the fare type.

  • The cabin luggage must not weigh over 22 lbs in total.

  • Passengers must ensure that their bags do not exceed the maximum dimensions of 22.4 X 15.7 X 12.9 inches each.

  • You can bring a handbag, a backpack, a portfolio, a laptop, or anything that fits the size and weight limit.

If your cabin baggage exceeds the weight and size limit, then the airline will consider it as a checked item, and you must pay additional charges for the same.

Can I Add Extra Weight to My Cabin Luggage?

To your surprise, Yes. Volaris Airlines allows passengers to add an additional 22lbs in the two cabin bags, as long as they meet the size requirements. Save more by adding an extra cabin bag while making your reservations or afterward.

Here’s how to add an extra weight to your cabin baggage allowance.

  • Go to the My Trips section on the Volaris homepage.

  • Access your itinerary.

  • Click on “Add Services” and choose “Travel Extras” to add extra weight to the cabin baggage.

How Much Does it Cost to Add Extra Weight to the Cabin Luggage?

While Volaris allows passengers to add an additional 22 lbs to their allowed cabin baggage allowance, travelers must have to spend extra dollars to use this benefit. The fee depends on the season in which you are flying along with the time left before the departure. Here are the details.
