Bicycles and Sporting Equipment [Japan Domestic Flights]

This page provides information regarding checking in or carrying on sporting equipment such as bicycles or golf bags on board. Additional charges will apply for sporting equipment (bicycles, golf bags, etc.) of a size or weight which exceeds the free baggage allowance.

Notes

  • As the various handling procedures will be different for flights operated by Japan Air Commuter and Amakusa Airlines, you are kindly requested to see the information on the Japan Air Commuter or Amakusa Airlines page before you travel on such flights.

Checking in Bicycles or Sporting Equipment

You can check in skis, surfboards, golf bags, fishing tools, and diving equipment in the same manner as ordinary baggage. (However, depending on the aircraft type, those items may not be accepted due to limited cargo space.)

If the total weight together with your other baggage exceeds 20 kg but is within 100 kg, you may check in your baggage by paying the excess baggage charges.

    Checked baggage containing bicycles or sporting equipment which exceeds 20 kg (40 kg for Premium Class passengers) but is within 100 kg will be subject to excess baggage charges. (Excess baggage charges will be charged for each flight sector.)

Points to Note upon Checking in Your Baggage

  • *

    If a bicycle is not packaged or protected, or the packaging is not suitable or adequate, please be advised that ANA is not responsible for damage or loss.

    • Folding bicycles: Please store in a soft case upon check-in.

    • Not foldable bicycles: Can be checked in if the total linear dimensions are no longer than 203 cm. Please package in a soft case or cardboard box in advance.

  • *

    Items with total linear dimensions that exceed 203 cm can be checked in provided that they can be loaded in the cargo compartment of the aircraft. However, depending on the aircraft type, checking in for these items may not be available due to limited cargo space. Please check Checking in Bulky Baggage for details on maximum acceptable lengths. For any baggage that exceeds 32 kg in weight and 203 cm in total linear dimensions per piece, please notify us via ANA by telephone in advance. (Please contact us at your earliest convenience as the confirmation may take some time.)

    Check in for bulky baggage may not be available due to the conditions of the aircraft used, etc., even if you have notified us in advance. If your bulky baggage cannot be loaded, you may be asked to use a delivery service or other means.

    Tennis and badminton rackets can be accepted as carry-on or checked baggage provided that size requirements are met.

    With the exception of electric bicycles, electric vehicles are not permitted to be checked in or carried on board.

    Furthermore, conditions are in place for the transport of electric bicycles. Please see General Electronic Devices with Built-in or Attached Lithium Batteries before you travel.
