Everyone who has ever fly with carry-on luggage knows: you need to take into account the sea of everything. We have studied the requirements of airlines and international standards, and the experience of tourists and now answer questions. Ten minutes and you’re ready for the next flight.
To put more things in carry-on luggage is an understandable desire for every passenger. No one wants to part with the phone, laptop, glasses and a bunch of other necessary things.
But there are a lot of people, and the cabin is small, so airlines set maximum dimensions and weight of carry-on luggage. Also, airports have strict safety standards, according to which some things on Board the aircraft can not transport.
Don’t be alarmed: even with the restrictions, you’ll be able to take on Board more than meets the eye.
The two main requirements that airlines impose on carry-on luggage are size and weight.
If your luggage looks compact and light, then most likely, its size and weight at the airport will not interest anyone. But if the behind-a bulky suitcase, then at the check-in, before the departure area and before boarding the airline staff can:
1 – Weigh your carry-on luggage. If they find a preponderance, then the extra things will have to be carry-on over to the luggage, or pay for non-standard carry-on luggage. At the gate, the tax may be higher than at the check-in;
2 – Put your carry-on luggage in a particular frame to check the dimensions. Will include — take to the salon. Will, not enter-hand over in luggage, possibly with surcharge.
How to avoid unexpected expenses:
⚈ Check our nameplate or the airline’s official website for carry-on luggage requirements;
⚈ Buy a special backpack or suitcase for carry-on luggage. They fit the requirements of most airlines.
⚈ Take a bag or backpack that can adjust to the size of the carry-on luggage. To do this, do not fill it tightly and tighten the straps on the sides.
⚈ Weigh your carry-on luggage yourself at home or the airport. If you saw a preponderance, then before checking in: 1) put on a sweater and the most massive pair of shoes, 2) small but weighty things shove in your pockets, 3) pull out everything that can take to the cabin without weighing: a laptop or a book.
Carry-on luggage rates in different airlines
New rules for carry-on luggage.
When you book a flight, there’s always the question of whether you want to check your luggage or bring it on the plane, but for some, that may no longer be an option. The International Air Transport Association is pushing to make carry on bags even smaller. Here’s a better look at what they would like to do.
It’s all in an effort to free up some space in packed overhead bins. The International Air Transport Association is proposing a 21% reduction in size on carry on bags. The recommendations suggest that carry on size should be 21.5 inches tall, 13.5 inches wide and 7.5 inches deep. Now, this is smaller compared to the maximum size allowed on many airlines like American, Delta and United who all currently allow bags up to 22 inches tall, 14 inches wide and nine inches deep. The new suitcase would lose about an inch on each side. The IATA believes these changes would make a big difference. They say it would create consistency for all airlines and give all passengers a chance to store their carry on bags.
The reaction of passengers to the new rules.
People wonders if the changes will ultimately force buy new carry on bags. Almost all travelers aren’t a big fan of the idea. Most actually think it’s unfai
It’s going to cause a lot of people to pay more for flights because the carry on is not going to be the size that they want.
A number of international airlines have already adopted these new standards, but no airlines here in the US have made any changes just yet.
You may have to start packing lighter if you’re going to fly and bring your bag on board.
