Hand luggage rucksack: 40 x 30 x 20 cm

A hand luggage rucksack measuring 40 x 30 x 20 cm can often be taken as a small carry-on item free of charge with your suitcase on airlines such as Eurowings or Lufthansa. On budget airlines such as Ryanair, 40 x 20 x 25 cm is the only free hand luggage you are allowed to take on board. Larger items of hand luggage will need to be booked for a fee with these airlines.

What happens if the hand luggage is too big?

If you ignore the hand luggage regulations, airport checks may require you to add your rucksack as large hand luggage for a fee. Once at the airport, a hefty supplement is usually added on top of the standard charge. It's best to find out exactly what the hand luggage regulations are before you check in, choose the right rucksack, or book a larger item of hand luggage. This will help you avoid unpleasant surprises. If your large hand luggage also exceeds your airline's specifications, you may have to check it in or pay fees for so-called excess baggage.
