Step by Step

How to book your Keyboard on Norwegian Air Shuttle

  1. Register your keyboard as special baggage by phone and provide exact dimensions and weight of the flight case — note the 32 kg limit.
  2. Use a sturdy flight case with shock-absorbing padding; pack loose parts like pedals, power supplies, and stands separately.
  3. Remove or secure internal lithium-ion batteries according to IATA regulations (under 100 Wh in carry-on or permanently installed).
  4. At check-in: request a Fragile tag and ask for manual loading — low-cost carriers often use automated loading, which can damage bulky equipment.

Practical Tips

Good to Know

Compact MIDI controllers (under 55 × 40 × 23 cm) can be taken as carry-on — check whether your setup works with a travel-friendly controller instead of a full-size keyboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I take a compact 61-key keyboard as carry-on?
No. Even compact 61-key keyboards at roughly 100 × 35 × 15 cm significantly exceed carry-on dimensions and must be checked.
What if my keyboard with flight case weighs over 32 kg?
Norwegian may refuse baggage over 32 kg for health and safety reasons. Use the lightest possible flight case or clarify transport by phone in advance.
