Air Dolomiti’s baggage policy based on the latest available information, primarily sourced from their official website and related travel resources.
Carry-On Baggage:
- Economy Class (Light, Classic, Green, Flex): 1 cabin bag, max 8 kg, dimensions up to 55 x 40 x 23 cm (including handles and wheels, total 115 cm).
- Business Class (Saver, Flex): 2 cabin bags, each max 8 kg, same dimensions.
- Personal Item: 1 additional item (e.g., purse, laptop bag, small backpack) permitted, max 45 x 35 x 15 cm, must fit under the seat.
- Note: On flights with 50 seats or less, only 1 personal item is allowed due to limited overhead space. Excess carry-on may be checked for a fee (€60 at the gate).
- Prohibited Items: Weapons, sharp objects, explosives, and flammable substances are banned. E-cigarettes and lithium-ion spare batteries (e.g., power banks) are allowed only in carry-on, not checked baggage.

- Economy Light: No free checked baggage.
- Economy Classic/Green/Flex: 1 suitcase, max 23 kg, dimensions up to 158 cm (length + width + height).
- Business Saver/Flex: 2 suitcases, each max 32 kg, same dimensions.
- Infants (under 2): 1 bag up to 10 kg (if fare includes baggage) + 1 folding stroller, carrycot, or car seat free.
- Maximum Weight: 32 kg per bag; heavier items must be shipped as cargo.
- Codeshare/Connecting Flights: If traveling with another airline (e.g., Lufthansa), the baggage policy of the airline operating the longest leg applies. For example, on a Lufthansa flight from New York to Munich connecting to Air Dolomiti to Venice, Lufthansa’s policy applies.
Excess Baggage Fees (Light Fare or Additional Bags):
- First Bag (Light Fare): €25 online (up to 24 hours before departure), €50 at the airport.
- Extra Bags: €70 within Germany, €80 within Europe (per route, one-way).
- Overweight (23-32 kg): €50 per bag.
- Oversized (over 158 cm): €100 per bag.
- Note: Online booking up to 8 days before departure saves money. A €5 surcharge applies per bag per segment if booked via the Sales Center. Fees are non-refundable.
Miles & More/Star Alliance Benefits:
- HON Circle/Senator/Star Gold: 1 additional bag (23 kg Economy, 32 kg Business) or free golf equipment, except on Light fare.

Notes:
- Check-in online 23 hours before departure to add baggage or seats. Airport check-in opens 2 hours prior, closing 30-45 minutes before departure (varies by airport).
- Enforcement of carry-on rules is strict on regional flights due to smaller aircraft (e.g., Embraer E195). Bags may be weighed/measured at the gate.
