TUI Airways UK Cabin Bags: 55×40×20 cm and Personal Item

TUI Airways UK allows a 10 kg cabin bag plus a small personal item; check operator and infant exceptions.

On TUI Airways UK (BY/TOM), adults and children aged two or over can bring one 55×40×20 cm cabin bag weighing up to 10 kg, plus one 40×30×20 cm personal item under the seat. This includes flight-only bookings; it is not limited to package holidays.

PremiumCabin bag remains 10 kg; checked benefits are separate

A TUI booking can use another airline. These dimensions do not automatically apply to every TUI-branded operator or partner. Read the airline and allowance in your booking confirmation.

Measure and pack

You must be able to lift your cabin bag into the overhead compartment yourself. Measure the packed exterior and weigh everything you will carry. Do not confuse a 20 or 25 kg checked allowance with the 10 kg cabin limit. The reviewed allowance page does not explicitly define wheel/handle treatment; allow for the full exterior when planning.

An oversized or overweight cabin bag may be placed in the hold and charged. The amount depends on the applicable booking and excess-baggage conditions; there is no verified universal £30/£60 cabin fee here. Nor is a relaxed or strict airport inspection frequency established.

Liquids and families

TUI describes ordinary liquids in containers up to 100 ml inside a clear resealable bag up to one litre / 20×20 cm, while noting that newer airport arrangements can differ. Check all departure and transfer airports and applicable exceptions.

Infants have no independent hand luggage. A package's infant checked allowance is a different benefit from cabin entitlement. Confirm pushchair or child-seat arrangements for the actual booking instead of assuming a spare bag is free.
