BMI Regional is a British regional airline that operates flights within the UK and Europe. Let's take a look at the airline's baggage rules.
Luggage
The checked luggage allowance on BMI Regional flights is based on weight, with a maximum of 23kg per item. Passengers can purchase additional kilos in increments of 3kg at the time of booking or up to 24 hours before departure. Additional kilos purchased at the airport will be more expensive than pre-booked ones. Passengers are advised to mark their luggage with their name, address, and telephone number in case it gets lost or delayed.
Hand Baggage
BMI Regional allows one piece of hand baggage per passenger, with a maximum weight of 12kg and a maximum size of 55 x 40 x 20 cm (including handles, wheels, and pockets). In addition, passengers are allowed to bring a small laptop or handbag. These items must fit under the seat in front or in the overhead locker.
Excess or Overweight Baggage
If a checked bag exceeds the weight limit of 23kg, the passenger will have to pay an excess baggage fee of £10 per kilo. If a passenger's total checked baggage exceeds the pre-booked allowance, they will be charged the excess baggage fee at the airport. Oversized bags or bags weighing more than 32kg will not be accepted for check-in.
Items Prohibited for Carriage
BMI Regional has a list of items that are not allowed on board, such as explosives, compressed gases, flammable liquids and solids, oxidizers and organic peroxides, toxic and infectious substances, radioactive materials, and others. Some items, such as lithium batteries, are allowed in limited quantities. Passengers are advised to check the airline's website for a detailed list of prohibited items before packing their luggage.
Overall, the baggage rules of BMI Regional are in line with those of other regional airlines in Europe. Passengers should always check the airline's website for the latest information and updates on baggage rules.
