The standard carry-on item must not exceed 10 kg (22 lbs) in weight, with
maximum dimensions of 23 x 40 x 55 cm (9 x 15.5 x 21.5 in). The personal
item—such as a laptop bag, briefcase, or small backpack—must not exceed 16 x 33
x 43 cm (6 x 13 x 17 in).
Additional items such as a diaper bag, small purse (not exceeding 25 x 30 x 14
cm / 10 x 12 x 5.5 in), or a pushchair are also allowed. Passengers travelling
with an infant not occupying their own seat may carry one extra standard
carry-on item for the infant’s belongings.
If you are travelling with an infant under two years of age seated on your lap,
you may bring an additional standard cabin bag for the child’s essentials.
Musical instruments can be brought on board as part of your standard carry-on
allowance, provided they fit within the size restrictions and can be stored in
the overhead locker or under the seat in front. If the instrument exceeds these
limits, you may purchase a separate seat for it at a 50% discount on the
published fare. Instruments occupying a seat must not exceed 162.5 cm (64 in) in
length or 36 kg (80 lbs) in weight.
