We recommend you complete and attach name tags both on the outside and inside of your checked in baggage.

To comply with Health & Safety requirements, Arik Air Limited has instituted a maximum weight for single items of checked baggage. Arik Air will not accept baggage that exceeds 30kg (66lbs) in weight, per any single piece of baggage (except Lagos-Freetown-Banjul-Dakar route and v.v.). This policy relates only to single items of baggage and does not affect your overall baggage allowance reflected on your ticket, which remains unchanged.

Prohibited items
In your checked baggage, you must not include fragile or perishable items, valuable items (including, but not limited to, money, jewels, precious metals), computers, personal electronic devices, any medication or medical equipment which may be required in-flight or during your trip or which cannot be replaced at short notice if lost or damaged, house or car keys, valuable documents (including, but not limited to, business documents, passports and other identification documents, negotiable papers, securities, deeds), or product samples.
