Complimentary Baggage Allowances

Silver, Gold and Platinum members receive complimentary checked baggage allowance when travelling with Virgin Australia and selected international airline partners.

Baggage allowance on domestic and international flights is based on both your fare type and your membership level at the time of travel.

As a Velocity member, the complimentary baggage allowance applied will be based on your status at time of travel, rather than time of booking.

Domestic

Baggage Allowance According to Fare Type and Velocity membership level:

*No single item may exceed 32kg. Additional baggage allowances can be purchased at the airport for a higher fee.

Travel Tip:

To minimise additional baggage fees, we suggest, where possible, you place several items or bags into one bag, case or box to count as one piece – provided it does not exceed the maximum size or weight of your baggage allowance. Please note that multiple items held together through the use of rope, tape, plastic wrap or any other similar method are not deemed to be a single piece of baggage and will not be accepted as a single piece of baggage at the check-in counter.

For example when travelling with a bike you can place additional items in your bike box such as spare wheels, tools, towels, clothes etc. as long as the box remains within the size and weight limits of your allowance. To avoid delays at the service counter, we suggest you make these precautions prior to arriving at the airport.
