Ever bought a carry-on bag at home, only to be told at a European airport that it must be checked in? Different countries and airlines really do have different size and weight rules โ and it can get confusing.
Key differences
-
European & US airlines: Carry-on restrictions are strict, usually around 55ร40ร20cm.
-
Asian airlines: More flexible with size, but stricter on weight (7kg limit is common).
-
Budget airlines: Toughest rules of all โ often requiring checked luggage even for slightly bigger bags.
Buying tips
-
Always check your airlineโs policy before flying.
-
If you travel internationally often, go for a โuniversal standardโ carry-on size.
-
A multi-functional travel bag is often more practical than one oversized suitcase.
Choosing the right size not only saves money but also makes your trip smoother and less stressful.
