Key policies

Baggage allowance

Standard baggage policies generally included one piece of hand luggage (up to 6kg) and one checked bag (up to 20kg), making inter-island travel convenient for both day-trippers and holidaymakers.

Change policy

Ticket flexibility depended on the fare class purchased. Basic promo fares required a modification fee, while flexible and Canary Island resident fares allowed highly flexible schedule changes to accommodate unpredictable travel needs.

Check-in

Passengers could check in at dedicated airport counters, which typically opened 2 hours before departure. Due to the short duration of inter-island flights, check-in usually closed strictly 30 minutes prior to boarding.
