    How to prepare your hold luggage?

      Dangerous goods 

      The customer is fully responsible in the event of a problem on board following the carriage of dangerous goods not declared at check-in in the baggage carried in his name. Discover the list of dangerous goods by clicking below: 

      Dangerous and hidden goods

      Prohibited goods

      For health and safety reasons, a number of goods are absolutely prohibited on board, whether in the cabin or the hold. You will of course be held liable if you carry one or more of these dangerous goods without having declared them at check-in. Discover the list of prohibited items by clicking here:
