Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas baggage allowances vary depending on the fare type, cabin class and route. In general, the airline offers a relatively generous checked baggage policy compared to many long-haul airlines.

Based on the airline’s current rules, passengers can expect the following:

Economy Class carry-on:

• 1 cabin bag (55 × 40 × 20 cm)
• 1 personal item
• Combined weight limit of 10 kg

Business Class carry-on:

• 2 cabin bags plus 1 personal item
• Combined weight limit of 16 kg (no bag exceeding 10 kg)

Checked baggage (typical allowances):

• Economy Basic: 1 checked bag (23 kg) on some routes
• Economy Full: up to 2 checked bags (23 kg each)
• Economy Flexible: up to 3 checked bags (23 kg each)
• Business Class: up to 3 checked bags (23 kg each)

Some routes may include higher baggage allowances, particularly flights to Venezuela.

Each checked bag must not exceed 23 kg. Bags weighing between 23 kg and 32 kg may incur an overweight fee, and bags above 32 kg are not accepted.

Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas offers two cabin classes on its Airbus A330 aircraft: Business (Executive) and Economy. The airline focuses on providing a simple long-haul product rather than multiple premium cabin options.

Business Class (Executive):

• Business Class seats are arranged in a 2-2-2 layout with around 56-63 inches of space between your seat and the one in front. The seats recline to an angled-flat position rather than a fully flat bed.
• Business passengers receive priority boarding, onboard meals, power outlets and an amenity kit.

Economy Class:

• Economy seats typically offer 31-32 inches of space between your seat and the one in front, with a 2-4-2 layout on most aircraft. Some aircraft use a tighter 3-3-3 layout, which results in narrower seats.
• Economy passengers receive complimentary meals and access to the airline’s onboard streaming entertainment system through their personal device.

Plus Ultra does not offer First Class or Premium Economy, keeping its cabin product simple for long-haul travel between Spain and Latin America.

Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas offers online check-in and airport check-in for its flights.

Online check-in:

• Online check-in opens 48 hours before departure and closes 6 hours before the scheduled flight time. Passengers can check in through the airline’s website by entering their booking reference and last name.
• Online check-in is not available for flights to or from Colombia, so passengers on these routes must check in at the airport.

Airport check-in:

• Airport check-in counters usually open 3 hours before departure at Madrid-Barajas Airport and other departure airports.
• Passengers are advised to arrive early, especially on long-haul routes.

Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas provides complimentary food and drinks on all long-haul flights, regardless of cabin class. Meals are typically inspired by Spanish and Latin American cuisine.

Economy Class:

• Passengers receive complimentary meals and soft drinks during the flight. Meal service usually includes a main dish, side items and beverages. Reviews often describe the meals as simple but adequate for long-haul travel.

Business Class (Executive):

• Business passengers receive an upgraded dining experience with premium meals, drinks and additional service throughout the flight.
• Amenity items such as pillows and blankets are also provided to make the journey more comfortable.

Passengers with dietary requirements such as vegetarian, vegan or kosher meals can request a special meal at least 72 hours before departure through the airline.

Premier Plus

Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas operates its own loyalty programme called Premier Plus. The programme rewards passengers with miles when flying with the airline.

Members earn 1 mile for every euro spent on flights (excluding taxes). Miles can then be used for benefits such as Business Class upgrades, extra baggage and priority boarding.

The programme includes several membership levels that offer additional benefits as you earn more miles:

• Classic
• Gold
• Platinum
• Black
• Gold Health

Higher tiers can include perks such as lounge access, increased baggage allowances and priority services.

Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas is not a member of any major airline alliance, such as oneworld, Star Alliance or SkyTeam.

The airline operates as an independent carrier but has a small number of partnerships that help passengers connect to additional destinations.

Plus Ultra currently has codeshare agreements with LASER Airlines and ITA Airways, allowing travellers to book shared flights between airlines on selected routes.

Because Plus Ultra is not part of a global alliance, passengers generally cannot earn or redeem miles with major airline loyalty programmes when flying with the airline.
