Airline policies often baffle me. The carry-on luggage restrictions are mind-boggling, to say the least. There are no standards and each airline sets their own rules. I was reminded of this a few weeks ago. I was in a mall and walked by a House of Samsonite store. Inside the store were signs showing luggage dimensions and weights for a few airlines. I found the signs helpful, but also realized they were obviously incomplete for those of us who travel a lot and use a broad variety of airlines.
That got me wondering, and sometimes when I go down a rabbit hole we all might find my journey useful. Here’s a chart of 150+ airlines and their size and weight dimensions for carry-on luggage.
Save the carry-on size chart for later so you can reference it before your next flight. I hope you find this useful. Let me know in the comments if I missed any of the airlines you fly.

Many thanks for a great resource. Add VivaColombia and it’ll be just perfect.
Most welcome, Mike. We’ll add VivaColumbia!
Nice chart. Now if I just had a regional jet chart of overhead space limits by model and airline. That sounds like more of a chore :)
HI Dan, Your idea sounds like a great rabbit hole endeavor:)) Thanks for reading!
Amazing! Thanks so much for putting this together!
Now if only airlines would actually enforce these so that people aren’t filling overhead bins with too-large bags. (I’m talking to you, Delta)
Glad you find this helpful, Joey. For sure the list of airlines that enforce these limits would be a lot shorter!

Thank you a great reference for my travels.
You’re welcome, Mahomed. Thanks for reading!
FYI – The size that you have listed for Spirit is their paid carry-on. Their free “personal” carry-on size is 18″ x 14″ x 8″.
Maybe you can add an asterisk to the airlines which charge for carry-ons or list both paid & free carry-on sizes for the airlines that do such a thing?
Good catch, HCB. We’ll correct this. Spirit is tricky because they then shift from size to weight. You make an interesting suggestion, thank you!
Wow!!! Considering the rest of the world uses metric, it must be tiring to convert all of it into imperial…
Google makes it easy to convert units. Safe travels :)
