Carry-On Baggage

Hand baggage consists of light items that you may need in-flight. It may include for ladies, a handbag or for men, a briefcase; a small laptop computer/Tablet and reading material. It also includes infant’s food for consumption in flight.

The following maximum baggage allowances apply for Carry-on Baggage for all Nauru Airlines International Travel:

Hand baggage should be shown to the check-in agent to ensure it is suitable to take on-board. Hand luggage in excess of your allowance will be removed at the boarding gate. You should be aware that excess hand luggage may not travel on the same flight as you. Additional charges will be payable if your excess hand luggage, when added to your checked baggage weight, exceeds your permitted allowance.

Additional allowances at our absolute discretion may include:

• a handbag, pocketbook or purse which is appropriate to normal travelling dress and is not being used as a container for the transportation of articles which could otherwise be regarded as Baggage;
• an overcoat or wrap
• an umbrella (pointed and/or sharp prohibited) or walking stick;
• a small camera and/or pair of binoculars;
• a reasonable amount of reading matter for the flight;
• infant’s food for consumption in flight;
• a small amount of duty-free goods.

For non-rigid Baggage such as a garment bag the maximum dimensions permitted are 60(l) x 114(h) x 11(d) cm.

Note 1: Medical assistance items (crutches, wheelchairs etc) are exempt from this requirement. Please refer to our section on Mobility Aids.

Note 2: Carry-on hand baggage must not include any prohibited items, liquids, aerosols or gels (LAGS) that exceed the maximum quantity permitted. Any prohibited items and/or LAGS items in excess of the maximum quantity permitted will be removed at the screening point by the airport operator or screening agency. There is no provision to hold these items for you.

Nauru Airlines does not accept the following items as Checked Baggage and does not accept liability for their loss or damage unless the items are identified to Nauru Airlines and it has, in its absolute discretion, given its written acceptance for carriage and accepted liability in writing for their loss or damage:
   • Cash, credit cards, deeds, passports and other travel documents, securities, business documents or other valuable documents;

Allowances for Infants

Adults accompanying infants are entitled to check-in one stroller, bassinet or car seat. If used to board the aircraft these items will be removed at the departure gate and stowed in the aircraft hold. They will be returned to you at the destination port.

Unaccompanied Baggage

Unaccompanied Baggage is passenger baggage sent separately as personal-effects cargo, and not as baggage accompanied by a passenger. Passenger baggage is a person’s personal wearing apparel, portable sporting goods and portable musical instruments. It does NOT include combustion/electric engines, motor parts and tools of trade. When personal effects are consigned as Unaccompanied Baggage, the passenger must present a copy of their passenger ticket to prove they are genuine passengers.

Sending your excess baggage as unaccompanied baggage is often cheaper. You will need to have the baggage with the cargo agent a number of days prior to travel – the cargo agent will advise you of the local requirements.
