Linguifamily answers your questions about luggage size on the plane

Luggage size on an airplane can be a detrimental step in your trip. Before you leave for your language trip, take the time to find out about each airline’s standards for checked and carry-on luggage.

What size carry-on luggage do I need?

First of all, each passenger on the flight is entitled to one piece of checked luggage, generally weighing a maximum of 20kg. You have the option to pay extra for additional or heavier luggage. The cabin luggage must not exceed 10kg and very precise dimensions. These may vary according to the airline. 

A little advice: remember to weigh your empty suitcases. This will give you an idea of how much business you can actually take.

Conditions depending on the company
