Before you pack

The personal item must be stored under the seat; it is the only included cabin item on Basic.

Fare type notes

Some airlines include only a smaller underseat item with basic fares. Larger cabin bags can require a paid bundle, priority service, or eligible ticket.

How strict is GOL?

GOL publishes 55 x 35 x 25 cm for the cabin bag, and at the gate the sizer frame decides — not your tape measure. On low-cost fares, size checks are part of the business model, so a bag within 1 cm of any limit is a gamble. Hard shells can't squeeze and soft bags bulge once packed — leave yourself a margin.

Overhead cabin bag

GOL publishes 55 x 35 x 25 cm for the carry-on on Non-Basic fare / Basic add-on, but whether it's included depends on your ticket, and it goes in the overhead bin. The weight allowance changes with fare type, so check your ticket.

Airline context

GOL is a low-cost carrier based in Brazil. Like most low-cost carriers, the free allowance is usually just the underseat bag — the larger cabin bag is often a paid add-on, so match your bag to your exact fare before you get to the gate.
