Eurowings charges a flat, predictable fee for golf clubs rather than a confusing online-vs-airport split. Here's what it costs and how the allowance works.
Eurowings connects Faro to several German cities — Berlin, Cologne/Bonn, Düsseldorf, Hamburg and Stuttgart, plus Hannover in season — so it's mainly relevant if you're flying from Germany rather than the UK. Compared to the rest of this series, its golf clubs policy is refreshingly simple: there's no online-versus-airport pricing gap to worry about, just one flat fee.
How Eurowings classifies golf clubs
Golf equipment is accepted as checked baggage, but it's booked and charged as its own item — it doesn't count toward your normal checked bag allowance, so a golf bag is on top of any suitcase you're also bringing, not a substitute for it. You register it ahead of time through the Eurowings website when you book or via Manage Booking afterwards.
Weight and size limits
The allowance is a generous 32kg, with combined dimensions (length + width + height) up to 158cm — enough room for a full set, shoes and extras without needing to think too hard about what you pack.
What it costs
Eurowings prices golf equipment at roughly €50 per flight segment as a starting point, with the exact figure shifting a bit by route and flight length. Unlike Ryanair, easyJet or Jet2, there doesn't appear to be a clear discount for booking online well in advance versus adding it later — the fee is comparatively flat, which makes it easier to budget for even if it isn't necessarily the cheapest on this list. As always, confirm the current price for your specific flights when you book, since airline ancillary pricing changes.
How to add golf clubs to your booking
Register your golf equipment on eurowings.com during booking or afterwards via Manage Booking, ideally well before departure rather than at the airport. Pack it in a solid case — with a 32kg allowance there's little excuse for an under-protected bag, and hold luggage handling doesn't get any gentler just because the fee was straightforward.
The alternative: rent clubs right at Faro Airport
A flat, predictable fee is one thing, but it's still a fee each way, plus a golf bag to manage through two airports. Renting removes both. Two operators are based directly inside Faro Airport (FAO) — one with a desk in the arrivals hall, another at a departures-terminal counter — so you can land, collect a set, and either use it straight away or have it sent ahead to your hotel or first course.

Bottom line
Eurowings makes the golf clubs decision easy to plan around, at least — a predictable flat fee and a generous 32kg allowance, with no timing games to play to get a better rate. Whether that's worth roughly €100 for a return trip, once you count both legs, comes down to how much you'd rather just rent and skip the extra bag altogether.
