Trip.com Baggage Add On: How to Add Extra Luggage to Your Flight

Booked a flight but realized your ticket has no checked baggage, or the allowance is too small? Don’t stress. You can easily add extra baggage through Trip.com before your trip. It’s quick, simple, and helps you avoid paying higher fees at the airport.

Can I Purchase Extra Baggage through Trip.com?

Yes, you can add extra baggage if you booked your flight on Trip.com. This is helpful for promo or budget tickets that do not include checked baggage. You can select the number of kilos you need, but the limit, baggage type, and rules depend on the airline. Some airlines do not allow changes or cancellations for added baggage, so always check the baggage policy carefully before confirming.

How Do I Purchase Extra Baggage on Trip.com?

First, remember that not all airlines allow extra baggage to be added. It always depends on the airline’s rules.

Step 1: Go to the Trip.com Flights page. Enter your departure city, destination, travel dates, and other details. Search for flights and choose the one that fits your schedule and budget.

Step 2: Select your flight option. If you think your plans might change, you can choose Trip Air Flexibility or AirFlex if it is available for your booking. This may allow free cancellation or one flight change, depending on the service terms shown before payment.

Step 3: Review your flight details and enter the passenger information. Before you continue, you will see the option to add extra baggage if the airline allows it. Choose the number of kilos you need, then click "continue".

Step 4: You can also add other services like seat selection or meals if you want. After that, click "proceed to payment".

Step 5: Complete the payment within the given time. Once your ticket is issued, your baggage add on is confirmed together with your flight.

Aside from the weight limit, also check your luggage size. Many airlines follow the standard checked baggage size limit of 158 cm in total for length, width, and height combined. This usually includes wheels and handles, but always check your airline’s baggage rules before flying.

Can I Purchase Additional Baggage after Booking My Flight?

Yes, you can still add extra baggage even after your ticket has been issued, as long as the airline allows it. Some airlines do not permit baggage to be added after booking, so always check the rules shown on your ticket before proceeding.

Step 1: Open the Trip.com app or Trip.com website and go to “Upcoming.” Choose the flight you want to update.
Step 2: On the booking details page, tap “Baggage Details” to see your current baggage allowance.
Step 3: If adding baggage is available, tap “Add,” select the number of kilos you need, then click “Pay Now.”
Step 4: Complete the payment within the given time. Once you receive the confirmation email, it means your extra baggage has been successfully added.
