Passengers can also visit an American Airlines ticket counter at the airport to purchase or manage an Envoy-operated flight. 

Counter hours and ticketing or check-in deadlines can vary by airport, so checking the schedule in advance is recommended.

• Add checked baggage
• Update contact information

Check-In and Boarding Pass

Online check-in is generally available 24 hours before departure. Passengers can check in, review their trip details, pay eligible baggage fees, and access a digital boarding pass through American Airlines.

Fare Types and Options

Envoy flights use American Airlines fare categories. Each fare type offers different levels of flexibility, seating, and onboard benefits. 

Basic Economy

This is the lowest-priced and most restrictive fare. It includes a standard carry-on allowance and basic inflight entertainment. Seat selection and ticket changes are limited, and passengers usually board last.

Main Cabin

Main Cabin offers a good balance of price and flexibility. Passengers can select seats in advance, bring standard carry-on bags, and enjoy complimentary snacks and non-alcoholic drinks. Most routes also allow changes without a change fee, although fare differences may apply.

Main Cabin Extra

Main Cabin Extra provides more space and is usually located toward the front of the cabin or in exit rows. It offers about 3 to 6 inches of extra legroom, Group 5 boarding, and complimentary alcoholic drinks on eligible flights.

First Class

First Class provides the highest level of service available on eligible Envoy regional flights. Benefits may include priority check-in and boarding, larger recliner-style seats, free checked bags, and complimentary premium food and drinks.

Flight Change and Cancellations

Flight changes, standard cancellations, and same-day flight changes are processed under parent carrier terms and regulations. 

Changes, regular cancellations, and same-day changes follow the parent airline’s rules. Basic Economy tickets are usually non-refundable and cannot be changed after the 24-hour booking period. Main Cabin and First Class tickets generally allow changes without a change fee on domestic and regional flights, but you may need to pay any fare difference.

Carry On Baggage Guidelines

Passengers can bring one personal item that fits underneath the seat. You may also bring one standard carry-on bag, provided it fits within the applicable size limit of 22 x 14 x 9 inches. 

Checked Luggage Rules

Checked bag fees depend on the fare, route, and AAdvantage status. Standard checked bags generally must not exceed 62 linear inches.

Main Cabin passengers generally have a 50-pound weight limit, while eligible First Class passengers may have a higher allowance of up to 70 pounds.

Valet Tag Service 

Envoy operates Embraer E170 and E175 aircraft, which have smaller overhead bins than many mainline aircraft. Larger carry-on bags may therefore need to be placed in the Valet Tag system at the aircraft door.

These bags are placed in the aircraft’s cargo compartment and are normally returned at the jet bridge after landing.

Pet Travel Requirements

Pet space is limited, so you may need to make arrangements in advance. Applicable fees also apply. Envoy generally does not accept pets as checked cargo on its regional aircraft. 

Trained service animals can travel without a pet fee when they meet applicable U.S. Department of Transportation requirements.

In-flight and Cabin Services

Envoy’s onboard experience is designed around the American Eagle regional product and varies by aircraft and route. 

First Class

First Class cabins generally use a 1-2 seating arrangement. Envoy’s E170 and E175 aircraft offer 12 First Class seats, along with additional space and premium onboard services.

Passengers may receive complimentary snacks, beverages, and alcoholic drinks on eligible flights, priority boarding, and other benefits associated with their American Airlines fare.

Main Cabin and Main Cabin Extra

Main Cabin uses a 2-2 configuration, meaning there are no middle seats.

The seats provide additional legroom and are generally located near the front of the cabin or in exit-row areas.

AAdvantage Loyalty Benefits

Envoy Air does not operate a separate frequent flyer program. Passengers flying on Envoy-operated flights can earn and redeem benefits through American Airlines AAdvantage.

Eligible flights can contribute toward miles, Loyalty Points, and status benefits according to the applicable AAdvantage rules.

Lost and Delayed Baggage

American Airlines manages baggage tracking and assistance for Envoy-operated flights.

Reporting Missing Bags

Passengers whose checked or Valet Tag bags do not arrive should contact the American Airlines Baggage Service Office at the airport before leaving the baggage claim area.

A report is created, and passengers receive a File Reference Number that can be used to track the baggage search.

Damaged Baggage

Damaged baggage should be reported to the appropriate baggage service office as soon as possible. Applicable reporting deadlines can vary based on whether the trip was domestic or international.

Passengers may also qualify for reimbursement of reasonable essential expenses when baggage is significantly delayed, subject to applicable rules and documentation.
