Will my luggage fit
in the overhead bin?
General Luggage Policies
Note that when maximum size measurements are shown as a
total number of inches (eg 45") this is the total of the
length, width and height of the piece. There are standard
sets of dimensions that go to make up these totals (for
example, 22 x 14 x 9 is the standard for 45") and if you
have a bag that is an unusual shape but still within the
total number of inches, you may find it being rejected.
Is Your Carry-On Bag
Legal?
Many luggage stores sell suitcases described as
'carry-on', but these suitcases are sometimes larger than
the size most airlines will accept. The safe maximum
size is 45", in the form of a 22" x 14" x 9" bag. Some
airlines allow up to as much as 55", but most do not.
Not only do luggage
stores and manufacturers seldom tell you if their bag is
legally sized or not, but they also frequently mis-measure
their bag. Their measurements generally are for the inside
of the main compartment, and assume that any external
pockets are of zero thickness, rather than stuffed full of
things (which can easily add another inch or more) and
ignore any external framing such as wheels and carry handle
(which can also add another couple of inches).
If you should be very
unlucky and find yourself forced to try and squeeze your
carry-on into an unforgiving luggage template by the gate,
even one extra inch - if your bag is already at the maximum
- will be enough to mean it doesn't fit and you have to
check the bag.
