Carry-on Luggage Sizes and Dimensions by Airline

Last updated on

We often get asked about maximum carry-on dimensions for the luggage that we offer and specifically for our TravelPro FlightCrew Rollaboards.

Unfortunately, it’s not a one-answer, fits all, type of question. The maximum dimensions are set by each airline and not one organization like the FAA or TSA. Each airline has their own rules for carry-on bags and even within an airline they might have different rules for different types of aircraft (i.e. Airbus A320 might be different than a CRJ-700). And, some have different rules for domestic flights versus international flights. Some even have different rules for different cabins (i.e. economy versus business class versus first class).

Overall, we strongly encourage you to visit the airline’s website(s) and review their specific rules. We have provided some general guidance below for Canada and US-based carriers along with links to each airline’s carry-on baggage rules page.
