Musical instruments

Special baggage We ask for your attention and common sense, above all. 
On Alitalia flights you can carry any musical instrument that is not longer than 100 cm as registered baggage. 
Larger instruments will be sent as goods except the violoncello, which must be booked and paid for to occupy a cabin seat. In this case, the instrument must be carried in a hard case with the following maximum dimensions:

- 52 cm. length 
- 40 cm. depth 
- 135 cm. height  

The entire instrument must comply with these measurements, including the base on which it stands (unless this is detachable). 

Check-in for the instrument must take place at least thirty minutes in advance of the set time limit. Aboard, the violoncello must be placed on a seat directly in front of a partition wall. If this is not possible, then on a window seat.
