Viva: common questions
Does Viva charge for checked bags?
On most economy fares the first checked bag costs about $45 each way (more at the airport). Extra and Smart fares include at least one bag. We show the bag allowance for every fare before you book.
Can I bring a carry-on on Viva's cheapest fare?
No. Viva's Zero fare includes only a personal item that fits under the seat; a carry-on bag costs extra, or is included with the Extra fare. Compare the total before choosing the lowest fare.
Can I change or cancel a Viva ticket?
Every booking on Air1 Tickets can be cancelled free within 24 hours (for flights 7+ days out). After that, Zero fares cannot be changed, while Extra fares allow changes with no change fee (you pay any fare difference). Refundable fares return the full amount.
How do I check in for a Viva flight?
Check in online or in the Viva app from 24 hours before departure using the airline confirmation code on your Air1 Tickets e-ticket. Your Air1 reference is for managing the booking with us; the airline code (six characters) is what Viva needs.
