Where a 40 x 30 x 15 cm bag also fits

Dimensional comparison across source-matched rules. The margin is the smallest spare edge after rotating the bag; anything within 1 cm counts as tight.

Carry-on

Common questions before you pack

22 source-matched airline rules publish exactly 40 x 30 x 15 cm as a cabin limit, and the same bag fits inside 110 more published rules. The tables list fare, weight, source and match date.

40 x 30 x 15 cm is 15.7 x 11.8 x 5.9 in. Airlines round conversions differently, so always compare in the unit the airline itself publishes.

Sometimes — limits are checked edge by edge, and rotating the bag can help. Enter your exact measurements in the checker; any edge within 1 cm of a limit should be treated as a gamble at the sizer.
