El Al Airlines Baggage Policy is designed around several key factors: your cabin class, your frequent flyer status with the Matmid program, and the specific route you are flying. In First Class, passengers enjoy the most generous allowance, typically receiving 3 to 4 pieces of checked luggage, each weighing up to 32 kg (70 lbs). Business Class passengers usually receive 2 to 3 pieces under the same weight limit. For Economy Class, the standard free allowance is most commonly 1 piece per passenger weighing up to 23 kg (50 lbs). However, it is crucial to understand that this allowance can vary based on promotional fares and specific routes, so your definitive allowance is always printed on your e-ticket or booking confirmation. Infants (under two years not occupying a seat) are entitled to one piece of checked baggage weighing up to 10 kg, plus a fully collapsible stroller carried free of charge. El Al's frequent flyer program, Matmid, enhances this allowance; elite members (Platinum, Gold, Silver) receive additional free checked bags on international flights, so be sure to link your membership number to your booking. This core structure ensures that your baggage allowance is tailored to your travel type, whether you are a premium passenger or a budget-conscious traveler.Infants (under two years not occupying a seat) are entitled to one piece of checked baggage weighing up to 10 kg, plus a fully collapsible stroller carried free of charge.
