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.

SriLankan Airlines liquids policy

Confirm liquids and exemptions with departure and transit airport security. The reviewed allowance source does not establish one global checkpoint container rule.
