How to use CarryFit
CarryFit is a quick baggage comparison helper for travellers who want to know whether a bag is likely to fit a published cabin allowance profile before they get to the airport.
Measure your bag
- Measure length, width, and depth in centimetres.
- Include wheels, rigid handles, and side pockets if they add to the external size.
- Use the real packed size when possible, especially for soft bags that expand.
Understand the result labels
- Fits: your bag is within the published dimensions for that profile.
- Close: it fits on paper, but the tolerance is small enough that bulky wheels or strict sizers could matter.
- Too large: at least one side is over the published maximum, or the stated weight limit is exceeded when weight is provided.
Why some profiles mention fare caveats
- Some airlines publish a dimension that is only included on selected fares, memberships, or add-ons.
- CarryFit shows those caveats next to the result so you do not mistake a size match for automatic entitlement.
What to verify before travel
- Your exact fare family or ticket type.
- Whether your route or aircraft type changes the allowance.
- Whether the airline combines the small-bag and hand-baggage weight into one total.
- Whether the airline may gate-check compliant bags when overhead bins are full.
Limitations
- CarryFit is a starter comparison set, not a full airline policy database.
- Airline pages can change after the source date shown in the methodology page.
- A pass in CarryFit is helpful guidance, not a boarding guarantee.
