A traveler noted that South Wind officially allows only 1 carry-on bag up to 8 kg, and there is a real risk of being charged extra if you bring an additional backpack on board.

On charter flights, the checked baggage allowance is usually up to 15 kg due to union-imposed weight limits for baggage handlers. During peak travel periods, equipment for handling heavier bags may be in short supply.

According to South Wind's official policy, passengers on the same booking can combine their baggage allowances, but the total weight must not exceed the sum of their individual limits. A single bag must not exceed 32 kg.
