Carry-on size by airline

North American airlines mostly use 22 x 14 x 9 inches and rarely weigh bags. Many European, Asian and Australian airlines allow a similar size but add a weight limit of 7 to 12 kg, and low-cost airlines often charge for anything bigger than an under-seat bag.

How to read these tables

Sizes include wheels and handles unless an airline page says otherwise. "about" means we converted the airline's own figure from cm to inches or back. Weight limits apply to that bag, or to all your cabin bags together where the airline page says so.

Spirit Airlines isn't listed because it stopped flying in 2026. Airlines whose sites we couldn't check are left out rather than guessed.
