Size Limit (all passengers):
-
Maximum dimensions: 118 cm total (56cm x 36cm x 23cm including handles and wheels).
Oversized or overweight cabin bags may be checked and charged at airport rates, so weighing before departure is a smart move.

Excess Baggage and Overweight Fees

Higher at the airport.
Overweight Bags:
-
Bags between 23 kg and 32 kg (allowed only for certain classes) incur a fee.

Rates vary by route, but pre-booking always gives you the best deal.
