Passengers traveling with snow or water ski equipment that’s carried as excess baggage (more than their allowance of two pieces of checked baggage) will receive 33% off the standard excess baggage charge. This applies only to the first set of equipment.  For any additional sets, normal excess baggage charges apply.

A set of snow ski equipment may consist of

• one pair of skis, one pair of ski poles, and one pair of ski boots or
• one snowboard and one pair of boots.

A set of water ski equipment may consist of

• one pair of standard water skis or
• one slalom waterski.

Rescue equipment is considered normal baggage and will incur normal excess baggage rates if it is in excess of your baggage allowance. All equipment must conform to the Dangerous Goods Regulations. Contact your local Emirates office for details.

If your travel starts in the United States and the first carrier on your booking is not Emirates, different rules may apply—learn more.
