Official baggage policyCheck 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.
China domestic screening generally prohibits carry-on liquids, with specified exceptions for personal cosmetics (one of each type in containers up to 100 ml), toothpaste/shaving cream, necessary infant milk and liquid medicine after screening. International/regional departures use containers up to 100 ml in one transparent resealable bag up to 1 litre. Duty-free transfers have separate sealed-bag/receipt conditions; confirm each airport.
Infants without a seat do not receive the normal cabin-bag/personal-item allowance. Infant food and a baby basket or foldable lightweight stroller are listed as additional items for passengers with infants.
Folded stroller with length+width+height no greater than 115 cm may be carried in the cabin; larger folded strollers must be checked. Cabin space can still require gate checking.
No general cabin car-seat or separate free-hold entitlement established by the reviewed carry-on source; arrange the specific seat and itinerary with the airline.
The normal carry-on table excludes only infants not occupying a seat; seated children use the allowance for their cabin.

Excess weight, size or count must be handled as checked baggage with applicable excess charges. No universal CNY 200/300 online/gate pair is supported. Limited cabin space can cause gate checking and separate-flight carriage. Unknown fees do not mean free excess baggage.
Rules can change. Always verify with China Southern Airlines before flying.
