Baggage
How much baggage can an adult bring?
Every adult ticket includes, at no extra charge:
- 1 checked bag: Up to 50 lb (22.6 kg).
- 1 small carry-on: Up to 25 lb (11.3 kg) for the overhead bin.
- 1 personal item: Up to 10 lb (handbag, school backpack or laptop case) to fit under your seat.
How much baggage can a child bring?
Children with a paid ticket may bring 1 bag of up to 50 lb checked in the luggage hold and 1 personal item of up to 10 lb in the cabin. Folding strollers can be checked at no extra charge as a family courtesy.
What is the maximum weight for my carry-on?
The maximum weight for your personal item in the cabin is 10 lb. It must fit easily under the seat in front of you so it does not block exits or emergency aisles.
What if I exceed the weight limit?
There is a variable fee based on the extra weight or volume at the ticket office. Acceptance depends strictly on available space and the bus’s legal weight limits on that departure. We recommend checking in advance at your departure terminal.
What counts as excess baggage?
The following items carry an extra charge for oversize or volume: sealed cardboard boxes, large coolers, boxed bicycles, screens / TVs and similar items. All of them must be checked at the ticket office before boarding.
Prohibited items and safety
What items are never allowed?
Under federal binational transportation rules (USDOT in the U.S. and SCT in Mexico), it is strictly prohibited to carry:
Any item that endangers the bus or its passengers will be confiscated and handed over to the authorities.
Baggage responsibility
Each passenger is responsible for labeling their bags with name and phone number and keeping the claim ticket. Keep documents, medication, money and valuables in your carry-on. All baggage may be inspected by U.S. and Mexican customs during the border crossing.
