Baggage

Your baggage can contain articles necessary for personal use, personal and other things necessary for wear, use or personal comfort during the trip.

It is strongly recommended that:

• Your name and address should be written on both the outside and the inside of your baggage;
• The temporary address at your destination should also be written on the baggage label (eg. name and address of the hotel you are staying at)
• Your baggage should be locked, or wrapped with a strong strap so as to keep it from opening and your things being lost;
• Valuable and fragile items, important documents and money should be kept only in your hand baggage;
• All baggage tags from your previous trips should be removed.
• Cameras and camcorders can be carried and used on Air Montenegro’ flights, but those of you who continue your travel with another airline should bear in mind that there are countries where the use of cameras, camcorders and binoculars in aircraft and airports is strictly forbidden.

You can take only one piece of carry-on baggage into cabin with you on Air Montenegro flights.The maximum weight of the item is 8kg, and its total dimensions (including wheels, handles and side pockets) must not exceed 115 cm (eg. 55x40x20 cm).

All airports have moulds aimed at passengers to check their hand baggage dimensions. These are simple metal frames in which hand baggage is placed. Such moulds are mostly placed near the check-in counters so as for you to simply repack the extra items into the bags you are checking in. If it fits, that means it meets standard dimensions, otherwise, you have to do re-packing.

Apart from one piece of hand baggage, there are other items that you are allowed to take onboard an aircraft, such as a coat/jacket, umbrella, crutches, camera, binoculars, a reasonable amount of reading material, bassinet or a fully collapsible pushchair. The hand baggage of passengers travelling with a baby can contain baby food in liquid or pulpy form and milk in the amount necessary for use during the trip. A passenger using medicines in liquid form can take these in hand baggage only if holding a medical clearance issued by a competent medical institution or an authorized medical office. The same applies to the transportation of liquids that are used for medical purposes, such as blood products, insulin, etc.
Note*: Their authenticity may be checked.

NOTES

Other items that can be taken onboard:

• manicure set if contains no blades and files;
• lap-tops, PDA's, mobile phones etc;
• lighter - one per passenger, safety matches.

You are advised to carry valuable items - such as money and jewelry, important business documents, keys and personal things of special importance to you - in your hand baggage, in no case in the registered one.
