If your hand luggage exceeds these size limits, easyJet may charge additional fees, and your bag will likely need to be placed in the hold. To avoid last-minute costs and delays at the gate, it’s a good idea to measure your bag before arriving at the airport.

For passengers who require extra space, easyJet offers an additional allowance through their **Up Front** or **Extra Legroom** seats, or by becoming an **easyJet Plus** member. This allows you to bring a larger cabin bag with dimensions of 56 x 45 x 25 cm (including handles and wheels), which can be stored in the overhead lockers. However, availability for these larger cabin bags is limited, so booking early is recommended.
