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.

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.

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).

I just arrived in Montreal on September 13 and I benefited from this great advantage !! I had 36kg of luggage fortunately there was the additional 17kg free!
Nothing to say except thank you PVTistes.net for this good plan!
Arrival at the baggage check-in, I show my coupon, the hostess does not ask me for anything special, only an “Oh a PVTistes!” with a slight Quebec accent to give a little overview of what we will hear the next two years 🙂
One word: go for it! Easy to obtain, free, and above all hyper mega too useful !!

Hi Maryne 🙂
I am a little lost because several speeches concerning this offer ……
Is it absolutely essential that each suitcase weighs 23 kg or can I for example (having a very large suitcase) have a suitcase of 30 kg (or maybe a little more) and complete the rest to go up to the 46kg authorized with another suitcase?
Thanks to you 😉

Even if in my case, the offer only served me to add 5kg, it was very useful to me, because you see, I had a little trouble keeping everything in one suitcase.
in addition, the offer may be useful for the return because I will probably have additional things to bring back.
Regarding the passage to the airport, it went very well, you can travel quietly.
thank you pvtiste.net

A very good plan! Air Transat is a low cost air operator but not too much: meals served on board and individual TV. Remember to take your headphones on the other hand. Thank you pvtistes!

Hi Mat, thank you for your message! Indeed, on my way there, I remembered having seen the good telecom plan but not for the Desjardins bank. I’m in Montreal and I just went around the banks and went to inquire at Fido for a package. Most banks offer newcomers free unlimited transactions the first year;) and for Fido for example, I have 2go and unlimited sms / calls in Canada (as well as texting internationally from Canada unlimited and free) on everything for $ 40.
If it can interest other Pvtistes;);)
Have a good day!
Charlotte.

Super good plan! I recommend!

Just for information, if you plan to exceed 40kg in total, know that you should not exceed 23kg per piece of luggage to avoid paying the excess of 60 euros per piece of luggage. It can be useful for you to properly distribute your pounds!

I still wonder how I would have done without this super good plan of additional 17kgs … Combined with the very advantageous price of tickets on air transat and the fact that it invoices the additional suitcases with the number of suitcases and not with the weight !!! I who had 5 suitcases and nearly 100kgs of luggage the bill would have been salted on another company !! So big up at pvtiste.net for this super good plan !!
Just a tip for future migrants: register early !! The ground agents are more relaxed and so are you !! A kiss to all!
