How to read this table
Sizes are in inches and include wheels and handles. A bag fits if its three sides are within the three published measurements in any order, which is how PackRight checks it. Checked weight is the standard limit for a US domestic economy ticket; going over usually means a charge that is banded by weight.
Every figure here shows its own review status. A record marked Review pending has not been checked against its source, or was last checked more than 30 days ago. Read our methodology for what that means.
