Official baggage policy
How to use this policy

Check cabin bag dimensions, weight and personal-item limits separately. A bag has to pass every published limit at once; being under the length and width limit does not help if the depth, weight, or fare-specific allowance is tighter.

Editorial signal only. Measure the packed bag and verify the operating carrier's rule.

Aircalin liquids policy

Aircalin describes liquids in containers under 100 ml, in one transparent resealable bag up to 1 litre (about 20×20 cm). Medical liquids, baby food and special dietary needs have conditions and may require supporting evidence. Confirm every departure/transit airport, especially duty-free acceptance; a sealed bag does not guarantee acceptance at all transfers.
