Known by many as “ the EasyJet size”, 45 x 36 x 20 cm (18 x 14 x 8 in) is the maximum dimensions of a cabin bag that EasyJet airline would allow its passengers to carry into its cabin for free. Their baggage allowance policy was updated in 2011 and remained unchanged till this day.

It is also accepted on several other major airlines world-wide. Its survey of shoppers ranked Eastpak bags as the best, followed by John Lewis, Antler, IT Luggage, Samsonite, Cabin Max and Marks & Spencer. Passengers who have paid for Ryanair or Wizz Air priority boarding or easyJet carry-on luggage will be able to use this bag on board the plane.Its dimensions exactly match the allowance for Ryanair priority customers, meaning it is also suitable for all of the other airlines featured. Airlines have different definitions of what counts as carry-on luggage. Ryanair customers can take on one small personal bag with the dimensions 40 x 20 x 25cm free of charge.

Meanwhile, easyJet passengers can take a bag up to a maximum size of 45 x 36 x 20cm, including any handles or wheels, free of charge. It must fit under the seat in front of them – and can weigh up to 15kg.
