About

CarryOn Size Guide is a dedicated resource built to simplify airline baggage rules for travelers worldwide. From carry-on size limits to cabin baggage dimensions and weight restrictions, our goal is to make airline policies clear, practical, and easy to compare.

Airline baggage rules are often inconsistent, and even small differences in luggage size can lead to unexpected issues at the airport. This site brings together verified data and real-world insights to help travelers make informed decisions before they fly.

What We Do

We focus on providing accurate and easy-to-understand information about:

  • Carry-on size limits across airlines
  • Cabin baggage dimensions and luggage size rules
  • Personal item allowances
  • Carry-on weight limits and restrictions
  • Airline-specific baggage policies
  • Side-by-side airline comparisons

Each guide is designed to help you quickly understand what’s allowed—and what might cause problems at the gate.

How Our Data Is Verified

Accuracy is a priority.

All carry-on size, luggage dimensions, and baggage allowance details are:

  • Sourced directly from official airline websites
  • Reviewed against current airline policies
  • Updated regularly to reflect rule changes

We do not rely on assumptions or outdated data. Every effort is made to ensure that the information you see reflects real airline guidelines.

Real-World Experience Behind the Content

CarryOn Size Guide is backed by hands-on experience in airport baggage operations.

Lindsey LaGrange, the primary contributor, brings over three years of direct experience working in baggage handling and ramp operations. Her background includes managing bag room operations, coordinating dispatch processes, and overseeing baggage flow and quality control.

This real-world experience provides practical insight into how airline baggage rules are applied beyond official policy—especially during boarding, gate checks, and high-traffic travel conditions.

Why This Site Exists

Many travelers assume baggage rules are the same across airlines—but they’re not.

A carry-on that fits one airline may not meet another airline’s size limit. Differences in cabin baggage size, enforcement, and allowance can lead to:

  • Gate-check situations
  • Additional baggage charges
  • Delays during boarding

This site exists to reduce that confusion by providing clear comparisons and practical guidance.

What Makes This Different

Unlike generic travel blogs, CarryOn Size Guide focuses specifically on airline baggage rules.

  • No broad travel advice—only baggage-focused content
  • No guesswork—data is based on official airline sources
  • Real-world context—based on how rules are enforced in practice

This focused approach allows us to provide more accurate and relevant information for travelers.

Our Approach

We combine:

  • Official airline data
  • Practical travel scenarios
  • Clear comparisons

This helps you understand not just what the rules say—but how they’re applied at the airport.

Our Goal

Our goal is simple:

To help you choose the right carry-on size, avoid unexpected issues, and travel with confidence.
