Swiss International Airlines Windsurfing Fees and Policies

Windsurfing equipment is accepted on SWISS Airlines, but because it is longer than 2.00 meters, it is classified as "Large" sports equipment and an expensive fee is charged. If flying with windsurfing equipment from Switzerland, we recommend considering booking a flight with Edelweiss instead.

SWISS Airlines Windsurfing Equipment Fee
The fee for Large sports equipment on SWISS Airlines, meaning up to 315 cm long and weighing up to 32 kg / 70 lbs, is quite expensive: [AMZ asins='B07WSRXMS8,3903038180,3937323228,B00JE3E028']

Register Your Windsurf Board with SWISS Airlines
Be sure to register your windsurfing equipment as early as possible, as space is limited on the airplane, and if it fills up your board bag will not be accepted. To register your sports equipment, you can call the SWISS Airlines service centre with your booking reservation information: +1 833 626 0737

You MUST register your windsurf equipment before your flight - you can do so until up to 24 hours before departure. It is not possible to register your sports equipment with less than 24 hours to go before departure.
