Will Your Carry-On Bag Fit?

Enter length, width, depth, and optional weight once. CarrySizer checks the exact airline limit, cabin-class overrides, and whether the same bag fits other airlines.

Bag fit checker

What the checker actually compares

The checker applies the airline’s published size model: limits for individual sides, a total of all three dimensions, or both. Include wheels and handles where required. A shared weight cap also bounds each individual bag. Enable “Check both bags together” to compare one main cabin bag plus one personal item, including their total packed weight. Missing weight limits or entitlements remain unresolved.

Size margins

The result identifies the side or total measurement that exceeds the airline’s limit. For a linear-only rule, the total of length, width and depth determines the size result.

Class-aware allowances

If the airline publishes different cabin limits for economy, business, or first class, the checker uses the cabin class you select.

Reverse fit search

The all-airline summary checks your bag as cabin baggage or a personal item across 162 active airline policies. Historical records are excluded.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if my carry-on bag will fit?

Measure your packed bag's length, width, and depth in centimetres — including wheels and handles, which most airlines count — and compare each dimension against your airline's limit. Every dimension has to be within the limit: being under on two but over on one still fails.

Do wheels and handles count toward carry-on size limits?

On most airlines, yes. The stated maximum includes wheels, handles, and external pockets, so measure the bag at its widest points fully packed rather than trusting the manufacturer's nominal size.

What is a personal item versus a carry-on?

A personal item is a smaller bag that fits under the seat in front of you — a backpack, handbag, or laptop bag. A carry-on (cabin bag) is the larger bag for the overhead bin. Many basic fares include only the personal item.
