- If you are traveling by airline soon, don’t be the one to find out that your carry-on bag is either too big or too heavy to be considered a carry-on. Which means you may have to pay the airline to check your luggage. In this video I share with you what the size and weight limits are for carry-on luggage, what the fees are if you have to check a bag at the last minute and also give you some guidance if you carry-on is just over the size limits.

Very nice job. Thanks much.
Thank you so much! I am glad you found the video helpful.
Given the globalization of air travel then there really needs to be some sort of universal set standards for carriers to adhere to. A one for all classification for regular airlines & a one for all for budget airlines is long overdue.
Take Europe for example. How many tens of millions of people (whether from Europe or from outside the continent) fly in to one country, then decide to hop over to another one during their travels. Someone deciding to explore may find themselves using both Ryanair & Norwegian Air. Both budget carriers, both in the same continent, even share some of the same destinations yet both have different baggage sizes.
Now expand that to travelers who are going on a grand vacation. After a few weeks in Europe, they decide to hit S.E Asia. In which case they are most likely going to need to fly with Air Asia (another budget airline), who of course are even stingier with their size & weight allowances.
The weight issue obviously has multiple solutions so is a minor inconvenience for your average flyer but a major issue for the minimalist flyer that only goes with carry-on. The discrepancy in bag sizing is the major issue that needs to be addressed imo. For anyone who intends to go visit multiple countries &/or fly to different regions of the same country it's something that may very well affect them & given the expense of good quality luggage then not something that can be taken lightly.
I agree James and you hit on some good points. I hope that at some point there are set universal standards for size and weight. It sure would make life a little easier when traveling.
thank you Ben
Thank you 👍
I've been binging your videos for the past few days, and I can't thank you enough. Your channel is super informative for someone who hasn't been on a plane since 2015! I'm anticipating a trip to Europe next year through Lufthansa Airlines and I only want to bring a carry-on with me. I found a duffel bag online that's 55 cm x 38 cm x 33 cm and just over 1 kg when empty. Do you think this will be acceptable?
Glad the videos have been helpful to you! I think a duffel bag with those dimensions will work just fine as duffel bags tend to be more flexible and have more give to them than a standard carry-on bag. As long as you don't fill the duffel bag to the max you shouldn't have any issues.
Hey Ben ! Great Video ! Do you have any duffel bag (with wheels) recommendations that are acceptable by tsa ?
I can recommend some duffel bags with wheels. Is this for carry-on or checked luggage?
@@BenDreamVacations carry on.
The rolling duffel bag I would recommend is the Travelpro Maxlite 5 duffel. amzn.to/4aaHITN. It looks like it's sold out right now so if you can wait that would be a good one that will last you for some time. The other duffel I would recommend is one by ebags amzn.to/3yekrmH. This one is available to purchase now.
Why doesn’t he have a million subscribers? I know you will soon Ben.
Thank you Jewel! I appreciate you!
Probably due to the awful audio
Hello ben, I use a small luggage everytime and dont have any problem, but my question is can I use a duffel bag (19” x 11” x 11”(38L) as my personal item? or is it too big since my carry on is a small luggage?
That is probably going to be a little big if its going to be completely full unless you are going to use it as your carry-on instead. If you are not going to fill the duffel bag all the way then I think you can get it to fit under the airplane seat as long as its not one of the duffel bags with the wheels.
For suitcases with a retractable handle, do you need to fully extend it and measure that as well? When I measured mine it was over 90cm, but as soon as I retracted the handle, it went to down to around 60cm instead.
Definitely measure with the handle down
So what if my duffel bag isnt completely full my bag checks out for the the length, width but is over the height limit about almost 3 inches but its not full so it can collapse down to the allowed size will i be ok like that or is that not a thing any info will be appreciated I'm flying southwest
As long as you don’t fill up the duffel bag and you can collapse it you should have no problems taking it on a Southwest flight.
My cabin bag is 57 cm high. 21cm deep and 37cm wide. do they look at the size before boarding? the suitcase goes 1cm or 2cm more in height and width. thanks in advance for the answer.
If its just a couple of centimeters over you won't have any issues. The airline is not going to check cabin bags unless it looks obvious that it will not fit.
Hi Ben! Got a question here, if the airline's luggage size standard is (56 x 36 x 23 cm) and my luggage is (46 x 38 x 22 cm), do you reckon I would encounter any problem? The height and depth is within the standard size, but the width is 2cm bigger than the standard size
2cm over on the length is not going to be a problem. You are good to use your luggage with those dimensions
Ok okay I would pay that 🤣 Thanks 🙏👍👍
My carry on size 22× 14.5×9.5 .Do you think it will fit well?
I will fly with American Airlines, British airways and Iberia.
Thank you in advance
It will fit well on either of those airlines but I will say if you are going to be flying on American Airlines' regional carrier, American Eagle, it might be a tighter fit.
What about a soft sided folding garment bag??
You can usually take garment bags as a carry-on with a size limit of 51 inches. This differs slightly between airlines so you will need to double check the requirements for the airline you are flying on.
Also, the length and height of a carry on Im interested in is 11.4 in x 21.2 in BUT the width is 12.5 instead of 9 . Do you think it will work?
If you are taking a duffel type bag then you will probably be ok to use it as long as you don't pack it full. Otherwise, you will need to go with something else or you will risk having to check the bag.
thank you for the video, this has been helpful and the most current one I have found. I'm flying jetblue within the U.S. carry-on is 22" L x 15" W x 9.5" H. it's over their measurements. Not finding any luggage with the exact measurement, it's either an inch higher or .5 wider. thank you in advance.
What type of carry-on do you have? If there is some flexibility in it, I think you can make it fit on JetBlue's planes without having to buy another carry-on. The worst thing that will happen if it doesn't fit is that they will check your bag for you. Usually when that happens you will get to pick it back up at the bottom of the jetway when you exit the plane without having to go to baggage claim. However, if you don't want that to happen then I have some carry-on options linked in the video description that you can check out.
Hi Ben, I have a question. My carry on is 23 inches tall and I’m flying American Airlines. Do you think they will care it’s one inch taller?
I have a 23 inch carry-on myself and I don’t have any issues with it except when you are flying the smaller regional jets in which case they won’t fit and will have to gate check your bag.
My carry on is all good on measurements but the length is 22.5 not 22. You think that .5 inches will give me any problems?
.5 inch difference is not going to be a problem. It will fit 👍
Hi i will travel to Europe in 4 months and i have a Osprey Porter 46L. ¿Have you to travel to Europe with Osprey Porter 46L?¿How was your experience? i ask why in Europe the low cost airlines measure personal luggage. I will appreciate your answer.
I have not used the Osprey Porter 46L but looking at the size dimensions it should fit in the overhead bins as a carry-on but not as a personal item bag.
The links for the carry on bags aren't working.
Thanks for letting me know! I appreciate it. The links are working now.
Bonjour, je suis française et je vais prendre un vol avec Turkish Airline prochainement. La compagnie nous impose 55×40×23 pour un bagage en cabine. J'ai un sac de voyage qui fait 52×30×26. La profondeur est trop grande (26cm), aurais-je des problèmes à l'aéroport ?
Merci par avance pour votre réponse !
I think as long as you don’t completely fill your luggage to capacity it should still fit in the overhead compartments. Otherwise if it ends up not fitting you will be forced to check your bag.
Je pense que ça rentrera. C'est surtout le personnel de l'aéroport que je redoute, j'imagine qu'ils vont être exigeants et me demander de le mettre en soute (avec des frais supplémentaires).
J'ai entendu dire que si on additionne la totalité des trois dimensions et que ça ne dépasse pas 118cm, c'est accepté (je ne sais pas si cela est vrai).
@@Perledorien2 I wish I could tell you for sure but I have never flown Turkish Airlines so I can't speak to how strict they are about the size restrictions. I think its close enough so I would try it.
Hi ben .. i am planning to travel with 50kgs parcel from india will it be possible
It will depend on the airline but most likely you will have to pay additional fees to carry the extra weight
Is an inch over the length going to be a problem
In most cases an inch over is not going to be a problem.
@@BenDreamVacations thank you ! Flying jet blue January
Why is it that most passengers put there overhead luggage in areas where they are not sitting? I’ve have gotten to my seat and the area above my seat is taken
That happens a lot. Also, I see people store their luggage in a compartment somewhere behind their seat which becomes an issue after the flight when they can't get to their bag because of everyone else trying to get off the plane.
I fly business class most of the time and many flight bloggers say wait to board as there is not as much hassle. Tried 3 times and when I got to my assigned seat in business the over head bin was full from bags from economy class that had more crap. The last time a African karen had her bags above my seat and claimed it was her seat also. Her the FT checked her boarding pass and she was way in back but would not move so I was told to the back. This African told me I am a racist and that I thought I was privileged. I took my bag and walked of the plane and they wanted to book me next day and got another airline booking. I fly to Asia mostly and very happy to be relocating there and leaving this woke Marxist country.
Hi, I have a flight on tuesday and since i haven't fly anywhere in years, do you think a duffel bag: 12 Width/Inches, 13 Height/Inches, 24.75 Depth/Inches could work as a personal item? Thank you!!
That is going to be too big for a personal item bag. You could use it as your carry on but for a personal item you are going to need something smaller.
My carry on bag is a duffel bag that is 24x14x11. It is very flexible and when not full can easily be downsized a little. Do you think this would be okay? I am flying on delta airlines next weekend
As long as it’s flexible and you don’t fill it completely you should be good.
@@BenDreamVacations I have a backpack that I want to carry with me. Its size is 21 inches tall, 16 inches wide and 10 inches thickness. Since its also flexible if I don't pack it to the brim it should be good?
@@deltaboy2011 if you are using your backpack as a personal item bag then you want to get the dimensions as close to 18x14x8. If you can do that then you shouldn’t have any issues.
@@BenDreamVacations how about just carry on at least?
@@deltaboy2011 no issues if you want to take it as a carry on 👍
lol Ryanairs "Carry on bags" are a joke. They might as well admit their fares are 50 euros higher than advertised.
100 percent. I also have never had a good landing when I have flown with them. It's always a hard landing. It's as if they are landing on an aircraft carrier.
I think your math is off. 9 inches is 22.86 cm
Thanks for catching my mistake.
No true. Try carry on. Huge backpack and a purse or another bag in your hand
