New Air France baggage regulations have simplified the baggage allowances for most flights, however there are still exceptions and special rules based on some departure and destination airports.
DID YOU CHOOSE A MINI PRICE TICKET?
You must pay a fee for all checked baggage. If you would like to check a baggage item, you can purchase a Baggage Option online. If you are a Flying Blue Elite/Elite Plus member, you can transport one baggage item weighing up to 23 kg / 50 lb.

The same applies for if you buy an Economy Light or Basic ticket. You will not have any free checked baggage allowance in this case. If you would like to fly with baggage, it is highly recommended to buy an additional allowance on the Air France website, as it will be much cheaper (up to 60% less) than paying at the airport.
