What it costs and what fits

Fee
  • Counts as part of standard checked allowance on inter-island flights (no extra charge) as long as total weight stays within the fare allowance plus the 5kg sports top-up;
  • standard excess-baggage rates apply beyond that.
  • On non-inter-island routes Binter does not say whether the SPEQ (~EUR 50, up to 23kg) / BULK (~EUR 75, up to 32kg or oversize) categories used across its wider network apply the same way to kite gear
Max weight
23 kg standard for surf equipment (60x160x30 cm, charged SPEQ ~EUR 50, 2026); above that weight or size it is charged as BULK, up to 32 kg or extra volume, ~EUR 75. Windsurf equipment is separately defined at up to 32 kg (60x250x30 cm). Kitesurf is not named as its own category. kg
Small aircraft
Binter operates a largely ATR turboprop fleet on inter-island routes; no hold-space or length restriction specific to kite or board bags is published for them, so confirm with Binter directly before flying, especially with a long board bag
Filed as
  • No longer a distinct chargeable special-baggage category for inter-island flights - surf/kitesurf/windsurf/diving/golf/ski/bike equipment weight is folded into the passenger's standard checked-baggage allowance, plus a courtesy top-up.
  • On other routes it may fall under Binter's general 'SPEQ' (sports equipment, up to 23kg) or 'BULK' (up to 32kg/oversize) special-baggage categories
Home region
Canary Islands, Spain
  • inter-island (Canary Islands domestic) included in standard allowance plus a free 5kg sports-equipment top-up; no extra charge unless combined weight exceeds allowance+5kg, then standard excess-baggage per-kg rates apply
  • mainland Spain / international (Portugal, Morocco, Cape Verde, Gambia, Senegal) Binter does not say whether the 5kg inter-island top-up applies; the general SPEQ (~EUR 50) or BULK (~EUR 75) special-baggage fee may apply instead
