On all our flights you are entitled to a free baggage allowance which will depend on the the class you travel in onboard and the type of ticket you book.
You can take extra bags with you for a charge. In most circumstances you can save money by buying your extra allowance online in advance.
Charges for extra baggage
If your bag is larger or heavier than the free baggage allowance you may be charged extra.
Charges for overweight baggage
All our available seats at the time of check-in are free for everyone from 24 hours before your flight departs.
However you may prefer to choose your seat as soon as you make your booking and there could be a charge for this. Our seating guide will give you more details on any applicable charges.
Many people with existing medical conditions are able to fly without difficulty. Most medical cases are straightforward but others require individual assessment. In some instances, we may ask that you travel with a medical escort or with supplementary oxygen (for which a charge is made).
We have detailed guidelines for customers on ba.com as well as contact information for our Passenger Medical Clearance Unit who can help with any queries you may have about a journey.
If you would like to travel with your pet then it must be booked as cargo and travel in the hold. The charges for transporting pets will vary based on the size of container needed, the weight of your pet and the distance being travelled. Our charges will be quoted when you reconfirm your flights.
More detailed information about transporting animals can be found on the website of our cargo company, IAG Cargo.
