Find quick answers to the most common questions about flying with TAAG.
Are TAAG online check-in times the same for domestic and international flights?
No. Domestic check-in opens 24 hours before departure and closes 60 minutes before. International check-in opens 36 hours before and closes 90 minutes before. Confirmed e-tickets, TAAG operation and an eligible departure airport are required.
Where and when do I drop baggage after TAAG online check-in?
Use the First Class counter, or Business Class if no First Class counter exists. Baggage delivery closes 90 minutes before departure. The domestic online check-in deadline does not extend baggage acceptance.
Does TAAG online check-in cover every departure airport and codeshare?
No. It requires confirmed e-tickets for TAAG-operated flights and an eligible departure city. Check the published airport list rather than relying only on a TAAG flight code.
When do TAAG airport check-in counters open and close?
They open four hours before departure, and check-in must be completed 90 minutes before departure. Late check-in can result in denied boarding.
Must I print my TAAG boarding pass?
No, provided the mobile boarding pass has a clearly scannable QR code. The airline recommends a printed backup. Document and other airport checks still apply.
Which cities does TAAG list for self-service check-in kiosks?
Examples include Lisbon, Porto, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Cape Town. Kiosks are not promised at every airport. Use the counter where unavailable.
What cabin-bag weight does TAAG allow, including the Brazil exception?
Domestic Economy and Executive allow up to 8 kg. International classes normally allow 8 kg, with a Brazil exception up to 10 kg. Check size requirements separately.
Can I bring a personal item in addition to TAAG cabin baggage?
The page allows one additional item: a personal shoulder bag, tablet/laptop bag, or a medical device approved for onboard use. It does not grant all of them cumulatively.
What airport accompaniment and documents does TAAG require for an unaccompanied minor?
A parent, legal guardian or authorised adult must accompany the child through check-in and airport formalities and obtain the required documents, including notarised authorisation to leave the country. Confirm age eligibility separately.
How do I report and track baggage not delivered by TAAG?
Report immediately at an airline counter on arrival. Keep the reference provided so you can check the progress of the baggage search.
