What
is the size limit for carry on luggage on an
airplane?
Good rule of thumb is 22" and 40 lbs.
But
use your head if you are taking a little puddle
jumper than you should consider a carry on no
bigger than a shoebox. If you are flying in a
large jet then the guide below is accurate. Also
consider what happens when you fly home from
your trip loaded down with souvenirs. Plan ahead
and pack light.
