IATA planning to reduce cabin luggage sizes

Buy lightweight cabin suitcases







At its AGM in Miami, IATA has been considering the future maximum dimensions of cabin luggage in order to achieve some standardisation across the airline industry, and to help everyone on board to have the opportunity of storing their bag in the cabin.

The current IATA guideline is a maximum of 56x45x25cm. The new proposed maximum is a smaller 55x35x20cm.

Bags and cases that meet the new size will display a 'IATA Cabin OK' logo to aid airline staff in recognition.

Talks are already underway with the major luggage manufacturers with the aim of having bags of the new size available later this year.

Currently we are unable to identify any bags that meet these exact dimensions.
