~ New initiative offers flexible, pre-booked baggage options across all sectors, making regional travel more seamless and affordable

Panaji, May 2026: FLY91, India’s pure-play regional airline, has introduced its newest product offering SmartBag91 — a customer-first initiative designed to simplify excess baggage for travellers while making regional flying more affordable, transparent and hassle-free.

As part of the initiative, passengers can now pre-book additional baggage at highly discounted rates across any sector on the FLY91 network, and not just on international connecting itineraries — a first-of-its-kind customer convenience feature in regional aviation.

Built around FLY91’s mission of “Connecting Bharat” through safe and reliable regional air travel, SmartBag91 addresses one of the most common traveller pain points: uncertainty and high costs associated with excess baggage.

Under the programme, passengers can choose from structured baggage slabs ranging from 5 kg to 30 kg at the time of booking, with pricing starting from INR 1000 and going up to just INR 3000 for 30 kg of additional baggage.

For travellers flying home, students relocating, business passengers, families, or customers carrying extra luggage for extended journeys, SmartBag91 offers greater predictability and flexibility well before arriving at the airport.

“For us, SmartBag91 is about simplifying travel decisions for our customers,” said Manoj Chacko, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, FLY91. “As we continue Connecting Bharat through safe and reliable regional air travel, our focus remains on making the journey more seamless and hassle-free for passengers. This initiative is especially valuable for travellers connecting through key hubs such as Hyderabad and Bengaluru, where smooth domestic and international transitions are increasingly important.”

The initiative also aligns with global aviation policies that allow passengers to personalise baggage requirements based on individual travel needs, while avoiding last-minute airport uncertainty.

As part of its digital-first approach, FLY91 continues to build a lean, customer-centric airline experience supported by proactive communication systems, auto check-ins via WhatsApp, QR-enabled inflight services powered by UPI, and simplified passenger processes.

SmartBag91 further strengthens FLY91’s positioning as an innovator in India’s regional aviation space, focused on delivering practical and passenger-led travel solutions.

Headquartered in Goa, FLY91 currently connects 12 destinations across India including Goa (Mopa), Pune, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Solapur, Jalgaon, Sindhudurg, Kochi, Agatti, Rajahmundry, Vijayawada, and Hubballi.
