In mid-2017, the Brazilian air market adopted a measure that is common to see in other parts of the world, charging for checked baggage, which was a watershed in the market.
It is currently being more accepted, especially by those traveling for work or those who make a quick trip and who end up purchasing a simple ticket without the right to dispatch, also because the proposal at the time was that airlines offer a much more affordable price for who would take only hand luggage.
So that this does not exceed the weight limits of the internal compartments, ABEAR (Brazilian Association of Airlines) together with ANAC stipulated rules for the transport of hand luggage including weight and measurements.

Before dispatching your luggage, it is advisable that you clearly identify your luggage with a label with your data (name, address and telephone number), personalize it with colored ribbons, travel tag, to facilitate visualization on the luggage conveyor belt upon disembarkation, thus avoiding another enger to pick up your luggage.
We also recommend that you take electronic equipment (laptop, video games, cell phone, tablet) jewelry, money or something of great value in your hand luggage, in case of loss or damage the companies are not responsible for compensation.
