For your safety and comfort on board hand luggage must comply with the measures and maximum weight, otherwise it will be despatched in the hold of the plane.
At the check-in counters there is already a method of measuring the size of carry-on bags. Therefore, bags that exceed the permitted size will be checked and carried in the belly of the plane. This is mandatory because oversized bags will not fit in the overhead bins or under the seats.
