Step by Step

How to book your Keyboard on SAS Scandinavian Airlines

  1. Measure and weigh your keyboard in its case and compare with SAS standard baggage limits (max. 158 cm total dimensions, max. 23 kg in Economy).
  2. If the case exceeds standard dimensions, call SAS Customer Service and register the keyboard as special baggage (at least 24 hours before departure).
  3. Pack the keyboard in a flight case with adequate padding and label it as FRAGILE.
  4. Check the keyboard in at the check-in counter or oversized baggage counter.

Practical Tips

Good to Know

A 61-key keyboard in a compact soft case may pass as regular checked baggage. 88-key stage pianos in flight cases almost always exceed standard dimensions – register these as special baggage in advance to avoid issues at the airport.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring a small MIDI keyboard in the cabin?
Yes, if it fits within carry-on dimensions (55 x 40 x 23 cm). Many 25- or 32-key MIDI controllers fit comfortably as carry-on.
How much does it cost to transport an 88-key stage piano?
A stage piano in a flight case qualifies as special baggage and costs approximately EUR 70–100 per leg, depending on the route, in addition to regular baggage.
