IMPORTANT – To benefit from this offer, you must use the link on this page.

Air 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.

You can take advantage of this special offer as many times as you wish for the entire duration of your study or work permit.

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.

If you are traveling with your spouse, who does not yet have a work permit, they are also eligible for the offer, provided that they are traveling on the same dates as you and that the tickets are purchased in the same booking. On the day of your trip, make sure to have proof of your relationship.

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.

IMPORTANT – Air Transat will randomly select passengers and contact them by email for proof of eligibility when necessary. The extra luggage allowance will automatically be added to your booking once you have purchased your plane ticket. When you book your ticket, you won’t see the extra luggage allowance. You will receive a transaction receipt by email when the extra luggage allowance will be added by the Air Transat team.If you’re contacted, you will have to show proof of your port of entry (POE) letter, study permit or IEC permit. Otherwise, your extra luggage allowance will be cancelled.

Choose between two fare options

You will get an extra 23 kg luggage allowance at no charge, so you can fly with up to two pieces of checked luggage (23 kg max each).
ECO BUDGET TICKET

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).

ECO STANDARD TICKET

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).

Super service and especially super follow-up of Caro in the forum for specific questions;) Really great !!!

Good to know :
a round trip with the same file number = 1 request and the offer will be applied on the 2 trips
2 people with the same file number = 2 requests, one for each because we must provide a copy of a document (PVT or LI for example).

Thank you for everything !

Hey! Thank you very much Elodie! It’s nice to read that. 🙂 It’s really nice to have included me in your thanks.
And nickel the little topo. 😉
Happy travels to both of you. I wish you the rest of your stay to be fun and enjoyable.
Something tells me that there will also be other requests by May 2020 so … see you soon for other baggage bonuses. ^^

Hello, the offer is not valid when you take a ticket including 2 checked baggage. To be careful because I got caught. I wanted to travel with 3 suitcases so I bought a more expensive ticket with 2 suitcases included except that my request was refused because I already had 2 suitcases included in my ticket !!! Amount of the 3rd suitcase by Air-transat: 160 € … yes, it stings !!!! To know, I would have taken 1 cheaper ticket with 1 suitcase + free luggage …

Hello Emilie,
I’m sorry for you but it was easy for you to know it and not to make this mistake.
If you had read this page, you would have seen that the good plan allows you to leave with a maximum of 2 checked bags in total. No addition of option or supplement authorized (only the selection of the non-optional seat is accepted).
It is noted in the intro and in the FAQ / frequently asked questions.
You remain eligible for the right plan throughout the validity period of your license. Without limit number of participations. Looking forward to sharing it with you in the future.

If you had taken the time to correctly read the good plan like thousands of people would you have known?

Sorry but I can read and reread the explanations, I can’t find the place where the information is specified.
I did not read the FAQ before because I had no doubts before taking my ticket and I was convinced that I was concerned by the offer. I thought we should read the FAQ only when we had questions … which was not my case because the explanations were clear.
Know Mathieu that I have been a member of this application for some time and rather sharp then your comment was not necessary !!!

Hello Emilie,

On the page above, we wrote this:
“Can I travel with more than 2 pieces of luggage?
No. This offer allows maximum travel with 2 suitcases of 23 kg. “.
It is complicated for Air Transat to have too many passengers with 3 pieces of luggage so if they authorized PVTists to have 3 pieces of luggage, the right plan could no longer exist.

For Mathieu’s remark, I admit that we are trying to make our good plans as clear as possible so that you are all satisfied, so it is a little tricky for us to read that you have been “tricked” . In any case you can take advantage of the offer when you return 🙂

Did you take the plus option or did you add luggage to your flight? We would also like to take three pieces of luggage per person

Very good airline, no complaints! On departure from Paris, the flight went well, individual screens, meal no good either, but correct. Regarding luggage, respect the 23kg distributed in suitcases or bags, otherwise you will have to open your suitcase at the airport to rebalance your 46kg. Once in Canada, customs clearance can be long, don’t worry about your luggage, Air Transat is used to it and takes care of putting it aside.

Good flight to all! and good stay;)

Excellent plan. Everything is settled and pre-registered upon arriving at the airport. It is even confusing. No baggage fees for my part. Checked baggage 23 kg + 10 kg in handy cabin to start a new adventure!

Very good plan, no additional steps at the airport, everything was already pre-registered with Air transat. I didn’t even have to show the correct one, everything was done automatically, I was able to take advantage of the free luggage without worry, thank you!

I was lucky to benefit from this advantage. When you leave for an indefinite period this offer is not negligible. When we receive an agreement received 15 days before my departure, we save 60 € all the same. Even on site I had 2kg more I paid nothing. Then as regards Air Transat on board the plane let’s say that they have things to review but hey it goes. Thank you to the PVT site for the partnerships.

Very grateful for this offer which allowed me to bring 23kg of additional material free of charge (not negligible, especially when you are a teacher with a lot of educational material and books) !!! I was already planning to travel with AirTransat, which I was very satisfied with on my first trip, so it was really good! Having taken my tickets about a week / ten days only before my departure, I was afraid that the deadlines would be too tight for my request to be validated but it was done super quickly! The process could not have been more simple and clear, and I did not even have to show proof at the airport, I checked in at an automatic terminal and the second baggage was associated with my ticket from the same way as the first. Really great !
It is also reassuring to know that I will be able to benefit from it when I return.
Thank you very much for this incredible bonus!
