Pegasus Airlines baggage allowance

On international and North Cyprus flights, Pegasus Airlines' entry-level Light Package strips baggage down further than most low-cost carriers do: no cabin bag, no checked bag, just one underseat item capped at 40 x 30 x 15 cm and 3 kg. That 3 kg weight limit is unusually tight -- most airlines that restrict a personal item still allow closer to double that.

Baggage by package (international flights)

Light Package: 1 underseat bag only, max 3 kg. Saver, Saver Plus and Comfort Flex Packages: 1 underseat bag plus 1 full cabin bag, and 20 kg of checked baggage included. Domestic flights within Turkey follow separate, unchanged rules. Check your bag against Pegasus and 52 other airlines with our carry-on checker.

Bottom line

A 3 kg underseat-only allowance is easy to underestimate -- even a laptop, charger and a light jacket can push past it. Unless you're traveling with almost nothing, Saver or above is worth pricing in from the start rather than adding baggage separately after booking Light.
