Sports Equipment Checker
Check how your airline carries golf clubs, skis, bikes and other sports kit: the baggage category, weight and size limits, and how far ahead you need to book.
Sports equipment by airline
Sports equipment travels in the hold and has to be added to your booking. We don’t show fees because they change often.

Hand luggage or hold?
GOV.UK says golf clubs can only go in the hold. Fishing rods are allowed in hand luggage and the hold, and for diving equipment you should check with your airline. Large items still need to fit your airline’s cabin bag size.
