At Airport / Freight Services

Load Services

After purchasing the ticket from the travel service companies, passengers can receive information about the amount of excess baggage from airlines. It should be noted that the amount of excess baggage in airlines is variable and different.

If the amount of baggage with the passenger exceeds the allowed limit, the passenger must pay an amount as excess baggage. Since the extra payment is rather high, it has been arranged that the excess load of the passengers be sent via freight service which costs much less than the excess load payment.

It should be noted that this service is only provided to the passengers who have tickets and passports, and personally refer to the Freight Service Unit of the airport in person.
