Choosing a fare starts with the Air France Baggage Policy for each ticket type. Light fares are the most affordable but usually exclude checked baggage, and some even omit the cabin bag. Standard and Flex fares include one checked bag, offering better value for longer trips. Premium cabins provide larger allowances across the board. Comparing total costs, including baggage, often reveals that a higher fare saves money overall. Review the fare conditions displayed during booking so there are no unwelcome surprises when you finally arrive at the busy airport terminal.
