Rules to know

  • The larger cabin bag needs a Priority or bundled fare. The free allowance is the small under-seat bag only.
  • Gate staff use a bag sizer and enforce the limit. Bags that do not fit are charged at the gate.
  • Dimensions include wheels, handles and outside pockets.

A standard 22 × 14 × 9 in (55.9 × 35.6 × 22.9 cm) bag is larger than the Wizz Air carry-on limit.
