Granada Airport Baggage Allowance by Airline and Fare (2026 Checker)
Pick your airline and fare, and get current cabin, checked, overweight and extra-bag rules for flights departing Granada (GRX).
Granada Airport (GRX) is small, but its baggage rules are not simple: six airlines fly from it, and each prices luggage its own way. Vueling and Volotea sell checked bags as an extra on their cheapest fares, Iberia flights are operated by Air Nostrum on regional jets where cabin trolleys often ride in the hold, and Binter's cheapest fare to the Canary Islands includes no checked bag at all. Prices also differ sharply between booking online and paying at the airport desk.
The checker below keeps track of it for you. Pick your airline and fare type, and you get the current personal item, cabin bag and checked bag allowances, plus overweight and extra-bag fees, with a link to the airline's official page.

Three things catch travelers out at Granada more than anything else:
Cheapest fares include no checked bag. Vueling Basic, Volotea's base fare, Binter Basic, Air Europa Lite and Transavia's base fare all sell the suitcase separately. Adding it during booking is consistently cheaper than adding it later, and far cheaper than the airport desk.
Regional jets gate-check cabin trolleys. Iberia's Granada routes are flown by Air Nostrum on smaller regional aircraft, and Binter uses regional jets too. Overhead space is limited, so your wheeled cabin bag may be tagged at the gate and travel in the hold for free; keep documents, electronics and valuables in the small under-seat bag.
Per-kilo overweight adds up fast. Volotea charges around 12 EUR per extra kilo and Transavia around 15 EUR, so a bag that is 3 kilos over can cost more than a whole second bag bought online in advance.
Habits that save money
Weigh your bag at home before every Granada departure, buy any extra allowance online while you book, and check the exact fare name on your confirmation email against the checker above. If your bag hovers near the limit, moving a kilo into your cabin bag is free; a kilo over the checked limit is not.
Which airlines include a checked bag from Granada?▾
On standard fares: Iberia (except the cheapest Basic tier), Binter Plus and FlexiPlus, and Air Europa Standard and Flex include one 23 kg bag. Vueling, Volotea and Transavia sell checked bags separately on their base fares. Always check the fare name on your booking confirmation, then verify in the checker above.
Is a cabin trolley free on Vueling and Volotea from GRX?▾
A small under-seat personal item is free on both. The larger cabin trolley is not included in the base fare: on Vueling it comes bundled with priority-type options, and on Volotea buying it at the gate is the most expensive way, around 65 EUR. Book it online with your ticket if you need it.
Why was my cabin bag taken at the gate in Granada?▾
Iberia's Granada flights are operated by Air Nostrum on regional jets, and Binter also flies smaller aircraft. Overhead bins are limited, so wheeled cabin bags are often gate-checked into the hold for free. You get the bag back at the belt, so keep documents, medication and electronics in your under-seat bag.
What does overweight baggage cost at Granada Airport?▾
The low-cost carriers charge per extra kilo at the desk: roughly 12 EUR per kg on Volotea and 15 EUR per kg on Transavia, while Iberia and the others use route-based fees. Buying a higher weight tier online in advance is consistently cheaper than paying at the airport.
