FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Can a 24 inch luggage be a carry on?
Unfortunately no, the standard carry-on size is currently the standard 22” x 14” x 9”, so a 24 inch bag is too large to bring on board of most economy standard airlines.
2. Is there a size limit for carry on bags?
Yes, every airline has their own unique rules when it comes to carry-on luggage. Please refer to our carry-on baggage size allowance chart or your airline's website to find the right information prior to departure.
3. Is a 22 inch carry on too big?
No, a 22 inch carry-on bag is not too big, since it’s a standard size for most airlines. But we always advise to double check the size allowance before your trip to be safe.
4. Are you allowed a backpack or similar item and a carry on?
Yes, you’re allowed to bring a backpack/ tote or similar item, it counts as a personal item. Personal Items are general required to be stowed under the seat in front of you, with some exceptions such as obstructions, and seats near Bulkheads. Remember to make sure that’s it’s smaller in size/weight compared to your carry on. In addition, ALWAYS CHECK YOUR AIRLINE that your airline allows a personal item as most airlines have their own rules.
