Does it fit? Popular carry-ons against airline limits
Quick answerMeasured by their own wheels-included listing sizes, only 3 of these 15 popular carry-ons meet the 22 x 14 x 9 inch limit that American, Delta, United, Alaska and JetBlue publish, because most are 9.5 to 10 inches deep or 23 inches tall with wheels. 14 meet Southwest’s 24 x 16 x 10 inches, and 2 meet Lufthansa’s 55 x 40 x 23 cm.
Limits change; confirm with your airline before you fly. Every figure here links to the airline page it came from.
Every cell links to a page with the side-by-side margins. Only bags whose listings state wheels-included sizes are used.
