Musical instruments on FlyArystan flights

A musical instrument in the aircraft cabin can be transported as:

• Hand baggage (only if it complies with the permitted dimensions and weight, see below) or
• In a separately purchased additional seat

1. Reminder of hand baggage transportation rules:

Size, weight, and quantity of hand baggage:

1. One piece of hand baggage per passenger.
2. Up to 5 kg can be transported for free. Maximum dimensions are 56x23x36 cm.
3. You can pay to increase it to 10 kg, but the quantity and dimensions must adhere to the same limits - one piece of hand baggage with dimensions 56x23x36* cm
4. Any hand baggage, including musical instruments, must fit into an Airline Baggage Sizer with all accessories (packaging, case, etc.)

* A musical instrument that does not exceed these dimensions is considered hand baggage; however, since the quantity of hand baggage is limited to one piece, all other belongings of the passenger must be checked as baggage after payment.

To ensure passenger comfort, the safety of musical instruments, and the right of other passengers to sufficient space for their hand baggage, we also offer the option to purchase an adjacent seat for the musical instrument (see information below) if it exceeds the dimensions of hand baggage, including the case. Strict rules regarding hand baggage in low-cost carriers are due to the large number of passengers on board, and each traveler should have the opportunity to accommodate their hand baggage. These rules are applied by other low-cost carriers worldwide.

2. If the instrument exceeds the specified dimensions:

1. To purchase a ticket with a musical instrument requiring additional space in the aircraft cabin, it is important to contact the FlyArystan contact center directly (before making the purchase) at +7 727 331-10-10; WhatsApp chat +7 702 702-02-27 (does not accept calls), or Live-chat.
2. The cost of the service corresponds to the cost of an additional seat on board at the current available fare.
3. If the service is not arranged, the musical instrument must be checked in the baggage compartment (the airline is not responsible for the instrument's safety) or left in the airport storage facility.

Please note, each FlyArystan flight can accommodate up to 188 passengers, and the number of spaces on overhead shelves for hand baggage is limited. It is, therefore, crucial to adhere to the established hand baggage norms. We kindly ask each passenger to respect these requirements; otherwise, we may be compelled to deny carriage.
