Note: Domestic travel refers to travel within or between the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean. While airline reservations are made when
deposits and Guest Information Forms (GIFs) are received, Viking Air Department generally issues airline tickets 70 days prior to departure and
many of the new baggage restrictions apply based on when your air ticket is issued. Currently, most international airlines continue to allow one to
two checked bags and one carry-on, plus a “personal item” (purse, briefcase, laptop, etc.). Please refer to each respective airline’s website on
the following pages for more information about baggage allowances.
