Hi everyone! I'm flying for the first time in a while, and I’m curious about the rules for carry-on luggage. It feels like every airline has different guidelines, and I don’t want to end up checking my bag at the gate because of size issues. Can anyone share some general rules or tips that apply across most airlines? Any resources would also be super helpful. Thanks in advance!

Hey there! Great question, and it’s one that comes up often. The general rule for carry-on luggage size is that it shouldn’t exceed 22 x 14 x 9 inches (56 x 36 x 23 cm), including wheels and handles. Weight limits vary by airline, but they typically allow 7–10 kg. Keep in mind some budget airlines, like Ryanair or Wizz Air, may only allow smaller bags unless you pay extra. For a comprehensive guide, I’d recommend checking out this blog post. It explains the rules for major airlines and offers practical tips to avoid surprises at the airport.

It’s always good to know what to expect, especially since stricter rules seem more common these days. I’ll take a look at that resource too—it sounds like a good way to stay prepared for upcoming trips.
