SriLankan Airlines Baggage Guides: Rules and Regulations and Excess Charges

Fly with a smaller carrier does not mean that you have to loose the free luggage amount. Here you will find all the information you need to know about the free luggage and tariffs of SriLankan Airlines. Please always check with the carrier before your flight. What is the free luggage limit with SriLankan Airlines? SriLankan Airlines has different luggage regulations according to where you fly to and from, and what your cabin is.

For example, Dubai to Sri Lanka is a lightweight travel destination and the free luggage capacity is a spacious 30 kg in Economy and 40 kg in Business/First. However, if you fly with SriLankan Airlines to/from North, South and Central America, your free luggage will be calculated based on the number of items and not the overall weight:

Can babies get free luggage with SriLankan Airlines? Babies of all categories are allowed 10 kg free luggage, but the size should not exceed 115 cm (length + hight + weight). When you join the SriLankan Airlines Fidelity Programme, you become a member of the SriLankan Airlines Rewards Programme and are awarded on every flight.

We have 5 levels of members of FlySmiLes and you will receive additional free luggage the higher the level: if you know you will exceed the level, you can pre-purchase additional luggage by calling SriLankan Airlines Member Services before your trip. Charges vary depending on your itinerary, flying times and fares, but you can reduce your additional luggage charges at the airports by up to 60%:

Even if you still carry your old case, which weights 10 kg even if it is empty, you should buy a new one. While we know that cheap grocery cases are enticing, what you are saving in terms of cash will be made up for by the additional weights and a case that lasts a long time.

When you are on holiday in Sri Lanka, you probably have a different pack schedule than, for example, a trip to a European town. In addition to your carry-on luggage (which should not be heavier than 7 kg), you may also take one of these on board: Besides taking along your mandatory minibottles of shutpoo and rinse (the carry-on guideline of 100 ml of liquids in a clear, closable zipper is still in effect), think of minisoaps, mini-towels, mini-toothbrush and mini-hairbrush.

If you haven't yet done so, consider putting your money in a tray and download your book, guidebook and magazine instead of carrying them all in your bag or carry-on bag. SriLankan Airlines' free checked bags from the UAE are spacious, but there is no point in taking weights and place when you don't need it.
