Azul Brazilian Airlines Baggage Fees (2026)
Quick summary
Azul is a major Brazilian low-cost carrier. A free carry-on plus personal item is included, but checked baggage is a paid add-on on the basic fare. Fares are branded (Tarifa Azul = carry-on only; Mais Azul and above include a checked bag). Domestic fees are charged in Brazilian reais (BRL) and follow a piece concept — cheapest prepaid online, more at the airport.

How to avoid extra fees
- Prepay checked bags online — the domestic fee is about BRL 30 online versus roughly BRL 50 at the airport.
- If you travel with only a carry-on (up to 10 kg) and a personal item, the Tarifa Azul fare avoids all bag fees.
- Keep each checked bag at 23 kg or under to dodge the ~BRL 220 overweight charge.
- Compare the Mais Azul bundle against a basic fare plus a paid bag — the bundle can be cheaper if you also want seat selection and flexibility.
