EnglishAir Transat and pvtistes.net has teamed up for a special offer applicable on flights to and from Canada—an extra 23 kg luggage allowance at no charge.
In other words, Air Transat will carry a piece of checked luggage at no cost. Note that you won’t get a refund on any luggage fees charged, this offer only gives eligible passengers the opportunity to travel with an extra piece of luggage at no additional cost.
Who can benefit from this special offer on Air Transat flights?
To be eligible, passengers must hold one of the following:
- An International Experience Canada (IEC) permit (Working Holiday, Young Professionals or International Co-op permit); or
- A study permit.
- A valid employer-specific work permit.
- A valid spousal work permit.
The immediate relatives of qualifying visa holders (father, mother, siblings) are also eligible for the offer, if they travel together on the same booking.
If you are travelling with your child, you can reserve his or her ticket at the same time as yours. However, he or she would not be eligible for the special offer by Air Transat and pvtistes.net.
This special offer applies to flights from Europe to Canada and flights from Canada to Europe.
It can be used as many times as you wish during the validity of your IEC or study permit.
Choose between two fare options
If you buy an ECO BUDGET ticket (no checked luggage included), this special offer will allow you to add ONE PIECE OF CHECKED LUGGAGE at no extra charge.
Travelling with two pieces of luggage? No worries, you can add a second piece of checked luggage at a later date for a fee and fly with up to two pieces of checked luggage in total (23 kg max each).
If you buy an ECO STANDARD ticket, a piece of checked luggage is already included in the price. This special offer will allow you to add another piece of checked luggage at no extra charge, so you’ll be able to travel with TWO PIECES OF CHECKED LUGGAGE in total (23 kg max each).
How can I benefit from this special offer when booking my ticket with Air Transat?
IMPORTANT – To get one free piece of checked baggage of 23 kg, use the search engine dedicated to pvtistes.net
The (not so) fine print for the Air Transat offer
- Maximum allowance per passenger is two pieces of checked luggage, 23 kg each. Adding a third piece of luggage is not possible with these fares.
- Maximum weight for each piece of checked luggage is 23 kg. Height + width + length must not exceed 158 cm (62 in).
- Each passenger is entitled to board with one piece of hand luggage and one personal item which are both subject to size restrictions. Maximum dimensions for your carry-on are 23 × 40 × 51 cm (9 × 16 × 20 in). Read Air Transat’s baggage allowance for more details.
- Special items (e.g. sporting equipment, music instruments) are not included in this special offer.
- The offer can’t be applied to transport of pets in the checked baggage hold. However, you can apply it to a regular piece of checked luggage and pay a separate fee to travel with your pet. For more info, read Pets and assistance dogs.
- Seat selection and gourmet meals are available with this special offer.

Hello everyone, I plan to travel soon with air transat and I wanted to know who has already traveled with this company, your impressions. And I wanted to know if in cabin baggage I have the right to bring my cabin suitcase and my laptop or do I have to add the computer?
Company at the top! Super price, never had any worries.
A little afraid because I did not receive the 17kg coupon but the admins of pvtsistes.net contacted the management of Air transat directly and it was resolved in a few days because there was a technical problem.
I recommend to all pvtistes to take advantage of this offer, 17kg is just a huge plus 🙂
Is it possible to do it from Canada to France?
These 2 sentences are confusing.
If you plan to go to Canada (or come back if your stay ends) thanks to the International Experience Canada (EIC) initiative, you can benefit from a free baggage allowance! You can travel with 40 kg, instead of 23.
Important
Only participants in the EIC initiative, therefore benefiting from a WHV, a Young Professionals permit, an internship permit or a summer job permit can take advantage of this advantage by making their reservation online, via our reservation button! This offer is only available for EICists departing from France or Belgium (one way or round trip).
So I don’t say.
Thank you.

ter option + on my flight do you think I can accumulate 23kg + 17kg (pvtiste) + 10kg (option +)? I called AirTransat but they told me to ask you the question directly … And last question (if promised!) How much luggage are we allowed to hold?
Thank you very much in advance for your answers!
Good day to all

So will I take advantage of this offer?

Suddenly I change my vote 🙂 Good plan super interesting and anyway Air Transat is the company that offered the cheapest tickets for my flight Lyon Montreal (direct and more!).
Having already traveled with them I can say that the service on the plane is correct.
The only small negatives: not all possible destinations (I would have liked to arrive direct to Ottawa) but hey haha you can not have everything. And you have to be careful to validate the 17 kg, especially with the bug that prevents booking through pvtistes.net
Hello,
I made my reservation through the Pvtistes site only when it was not asked for verification. Having clicked on the Book button, I wanted to know if I will be entitled to the additional 17kg?
Hi,
In this case, you must check and give the information of your flight.
thank you so much
Hello, this promo interests me a lot only I read a lot of negative opinion on Air transat at the comfort level … (in particular that it is much colder than for example at Air France, or even that it does there is no individual screen …) could you give me your opinion on your flight with Air Transat? Thank you in advance 🙂
Hello,

Thank you
Hello,
I went through pvtistes.net just now but as I had technical problems (impossible to select a reservation on air transat) I had to go through another browser (IE) but I did not know at all that the link was tracked suddenly I just continued direct on air transat from the other browser, bought my ticket then returned to firefox to enter the file number and departure date !!! Is that fucked up ????
Hi Thibault,
Sorry but to take advantage of this advantage, you absolutely have to go through the tracked link, it has been clearly indicated in red. Maybe you can cancel the purchase?
We are aware of the technical problem on the Air Transat site, I reported it on Saturday and I hope that it will be corrected on Monday.
I do not think I can cancel the purchase … there is no right of withdrawal but I will ask anyway.
Yes I saw the message in red that’s why I clicked but after I thought it was good … like I thought our ip address was registered or I don’t know what but not that never went out: ‘(I’m really disappointed
In any case considering that all this happens because of technical problems on the site of air transat can be could you intervene in my (our) favor? : / I have the email which proves that I checked before booking my ticket
I will see with Air Transat tomorrow but I promise you nothing.
Thanks Mat! 🙂
Good news Thibault! Air Transat has exceptionally agreed to give you the 17 kilos of PVTistes.net 🙂
LYS-YUL June 12
File: J1332769
Travel documents are issued at D-21 days before departure … You will receive everything in the week of May 20.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Carole from Air Transat for her availability;)
Great !!! I also received an email! Super cool frankly I really needed it 🙂
I traveled on Saturday January 25 from Paris to Montreal with Air Transat. I was a little worried about my baggage weight but ultimately everything went very well. 40 kg in the hold without problem.
Mat was therefore right! Thanks Mat.
ANECDOTE:
For Belgians, don’t say “I DON’T KNOW” but “I can’t CAN” or “I won’t”.
Once my luggage was sent in the hold, I asked the counter agent if I could NOT choose the seat I want on the plane. He replied: Sorry, what? I repeated again “I don’t know how to choose my seat”? He was lost! Then there, I realized: “m ****, will have to start to leave your belgicisms aside. Already that here in Paris, it is not obvious, then in Montreal with all these expressions we will not be able to understand”. So I said to him: Sorry, excuse me, it was Belgianism. Couldn’t I choose my seat on the plane please? Aaaaaaaaah finally we finally understood! He looked at me and laughed out loud. In summary, the seventies, nineties and other very Belgian words are to be forgotten: D
Great and thank you for the testimony!
For the anecdote it’s too funny! The first time I heard it, I admit that I also asked the person to repeat several times … and then we exploded with laughter 🙂
I wish you a good stay in Canada and do not hesitate to testify on the site of your feelings and your different experiences;)
