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 Qantas?
Qantas publishes 56 x 36 x 23 cm for the cabin bag, and at the gate the sizer frame decides — not your tape measure. Enforcement varies by airport and crew, but a bag within 1 cm of any limit is always a gamble. Hard shells can't squeeze and soft bags bulge once packed — leave yourself a margin.

Underseat item

Airline context
Qantas is a full-service carrier based in Australia. Full-service carriers typically include both a cabin bag and a personal item, but weight gets checked more often than size — keep an eye on the kilo limit as well as the frame.
