How Air Caraïbes treats fishing equipment
With Air Caraïbes, fishing equipment travels in the hold rather than as a long cabin item. One set may include a tackle box, landing net, one properly packed pair of rods and one reel. — Air Caraïbes.
The airline charges a sports-equipment service each way. The airline currently shows “≥ 50 €” · 110 €*. Your final total still depends on the ticket and the flight actually operated. — Air Caraïbes.
Weight, length and dimensions to check
Air Caraïbes publishes 23 kg / 32 kg for weight and “≤ 158 cm* · cargo > 250 cm” for size. Weigh the closed tube with foam, end caps and everything packed inside. — Air Caraïbes.
Our 145 × Ø10 cm benchmark equals roughly 165 cm when length, width and height are added together. Do not confuse this total with a length-only limit. — Air Caraïbes.
Declare the tube and navigate bag drop
Declare the dimensions when booking and notify the airline at least 48 hours before departure for an oversized item. At the airport, check in at the main desk first, then follow directions to the oversized-baggage belt. Keep a screenshot of the confirmation, particularly when your itinerary includes a connection. — Air Caraïbes.
Protect the rods and separate accessories
The equipment must be properly packed as one set or in the pieces defined by the rule. Immobilise every rod section, keep guides away from the wall, and label the tube both outside and inside. — Air Caraïbes.
Pack hooks, knives, pliers and tools securely in checked baggage. For an electric reel, lithium battery or CO₂ cartridge, separately check the dangerous-goods rules of both airline and airport. — Air Caraïbes.
What the published rule does not establish
Air Caraïbes does not publish a complete fishing category from which the applicable price and size can be determined unambiguously. We flag that gap instead of treating the tube as another sports category. — Air Caraïbes.
On a codeshare, follow the rule of the carrier operating each segment. Ask for written confirmation when two airlines appear on the ticket. — Air Caraïbes.
Fit for a 145 cm Rodborne tube
Compatibility cannot be guaranteed from the published information. Send the route and exact dimensions to the airline before choosing the tube length. — Air Caraïbes.

The facts above come from airline pages. We do not estimate amounts the airline does not publish. — Air Caraïbes.
