We will accommodate your sporting adventures by including sport equipment, such as bicycles and golf equipment, within your normal baggage allowances. This means you will not incur additional charges if your sport equipment falls within your regular baggage limits.
Bicycles
Bicycles can be transported as part of your checked baggage allowance. Ensure the bicycle is packed properly in a hard-shell container or bike bag to prevent damage.
Golf Equipment
A standard golf bag containing golf clubs, balls, and one pair of golf shoes can be included within your normal baggage allowance.

Check the baggage allowance for your specific flight and fare class on our Baggage Allowance page.

02. Can I carry cabin baggage, and what are the size and weight restrictions?
Yes, if your checked baggage exceeds the weight or piece limit, you may be subject to excess baggage fees. These fees depend on your route and the excess weight or pieces. You can pay for excess baggage at the airport or online during the booking process to save time and money.
-
04. Can I bring sports equipment or special items like musical instruments on my flight?
RwandAir allows the carriage of special items like sports equipment and musical instruments, but there may be additional charges or size/weight restrictions. Please refer to our Baggage Allowance page for specific guidelines and fees related to these items.
-
05. What should I do if my baggage is delayed, lost, or damaged during my journey?
If your baggage is delayed, lost, or damaged, please report it to RwandAir's Baggage Services at the airport immediately. You will receive a Property Irregularity Report (PIR). For lost baggage, we will make every effort to locate it. For damaged baggage, please keep all relevant documentation and contact us for assistance.

06. Can I purchase additional baggage allowance in advance?
Yes, you can purchase additional baggage allowance in advance through our website or by contacting RwandAir's Customer Service. Buying excess baggage online is often more cost-effective than doing so at the airport. Be sure to check our Baggage Allowance page for details on fees and limitations.
