Excess baggage rates

If you wish to take more than your allotted baggage allowance, you can purchase excess baggage on qatarairways.com, at Qatar Airways city offices, airport ticketing offices, call centers, or at the time of check-in.

Excess baggage can be purchased online during the booking process, or using the Manage A Booking tab at the top of this page after the booking is made.

The rates and conditions below are applicable for Qatar Airways operated flights only. If your itinerary includes flights operated by other airlines, please contact the nearest Qatar Airways ticket office or our call centre so that our colleagues can check your ticket and advise on the applicable excess baggage charges.

In case of Qatar Airways operated flights, excess and overweight baggage charges are dependent on the regions you are travelling between.
