Saudia Airlines Baggage Policy designed to cater to diverse travel needs, is structured around cabin class and route, with specific allowances for carry-on and checked luggage that all passengers must adhere to. For carry-on baggage, every traveler is permitted one standard bag plus one personal item such as a purse, laptop bag, or small backpack; the carry-on must not exceed 55cm x 35cm x 25cm (22 x 14 x 10 inches) including wheels and handles, and its weight is limited to 7kg (15 lbs) in Economy and Premium Economy, or 10kg (22 lbs) in Business and First Class, and it must fit in the overhead bin or under the seat. Checked baggage allowances are more substantial and vary significantly by cabin: Economy passengers typically receive 23kg (50 lbs) on international flights and 30kg (66 lbs) on domestic Saudi routes, while Premium Economy offers 30kg (66 lbs) internationally and 40kg (88 lbs) domestically; Business Class passengers are entitled to 50kg (110 lbs) internationally and 60kg (132 lbs) domestically, and First Class passengers receive 70kg (110 lbs) internationally and 80kg (176 lbs) domestically. These are total weight limits per passenger, not per bag. Exceeding these weight or size limits (with a maximum linear dimension of 158cm/62 inches per bag) incurs substantial excess baggage fees, calculated per kilogram over the allowance. Special items such as musical instruments, sports equipment (e.g., golf clubs, surfboards), and mobility aids have specific policies and often require advance arrangement with additional fees. Infants not occupying a seat are typically allowed one checked bag weighing up to 10kg (22 lbs) plus a collapsible stroller or car seat. Given that allowances and fees can be subject to change and may vary by fare type or route, it is imperative for passengers to verify the most current details directly on the official Saudia Airlines website before their journey to avoid unexpected charges and ensure a smooth travel experience.
