Testing Carry On Luggage at the Airport for the Most Popular Airlines

I tested 8 different carry-on bags in different airline sizers to see which ones actually fit vs. what they're like in the overhead bin. We tried Monos, Travelpro, Level8, Tomtoc, mixi, and Dakine bags.
We test the best carry on luggage for United Airlines, Air Canada, Westjet and more!

Does air canada check the carry on luggage to the sizer?

[@RetroDiver]

Thanks for confirming the sizers don't match the airlines ' posted limits, AND that not all sizers are equal within an airline!

[@rosemarie9956]

Exactly- but you can’t argue this at the gate as they simply go by the sizer

[@drphibesrises]

Thanks for going through all the trouble to size all that luggage. People must have been looking at you and saying "I think she overpacked" LOL. It is really helpful.

[@alysmalls]

Lol yes we got a lot of looks! 😅

[@staceyroberts4202]

You've saved my daughter so much grief and time looking for a carry on! Thank you so much!

[@luci9785]

Thank you for doing a live testing for us, your video is going to make choosing a new carry-on so much easier for a lot of people out there! Last year me and my family traveled internationally for the first time in years and we had to buy a carry-on for everyone. I did my research (and wasted so much of my time!): I watched videos, I read REVIEWS. I finally bought four Samsonite Freeform carry-ons just to find out months later (when I couldn't return them anymore) that they don't have the right measurements for a standard carry-on so they won't fit in any of the sizers at the airport. I was soooo mad! I had two options: risk going to the airport and having to check our carry-ons because they were too big or buying AGAIN another set of carry-ons. I figured that the second option was the least stressful one so I ordered four Delsey Helium Aero 19" just to be on the safe side and yeah, they are small. Anyway I'm now a proud owner of eight carry-ons, four of them completely useless!

[@alysmalls]

Yeah, 19 is small, but at least it should fit pretty much everywhere! I feel your frustration, I've also had a few useless bags over the years!!

[@dawnmanning3119]

I've got several now useless carry-on bags, but I use them when traveling in cars and keep my current carry-on just for air travel.

[@rosemarie9956]

Interestingly I have been seeing a lot of people selling carry on luggage - now I know why as so many types don’t fit in the sizer We already have some and now will need to buy new ones 😂

[@michaelleetrini3635]

Thank you for doing it as a Canadian 🇨🇦. I actually was going to shop for luggage today and this video really helped me . I never knew WestJet was strict with carry on luggage

[@magicaltravelbyjen1239]

THANK YOU!!! This is exactly the type of video I was looking for! I just purchased a new Monos Carry-On and was going to return it after realizing it is 1/2" longer than approved for some international flights I have coming up on Air Canada and KLM. Seeing it easily slip into the Air Canada bag sizer set my mind at ease! Which is great because the bag is beautiful! :)

[@paddyanne2024]

I've been scared to buy a monos for this very same reason! I'm scared of that 1/2 inch difference, but it was great to see how it fit for Ally! ....still scared to make the purchase though, lol !

[@wingsonwong3233]

This is so helpful. And yes, airline luggage sizers truly suck. Thank you so much.

[@alysmalls]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@fortwoods]

Never knew about the Dakine bag. The price seems affordable, it's not as heavy and it looks pretty durable, plus the size is right. I think I found my bag, Thanks!

[@kevinlam3523]

I work for one of the airline thanks for doing this video now passenger should what to bring and pack and no more screaming between employee and passenger

[@patallenhurst3043]

I'm giving you a like for going the extra mile in testing it at the airport. Great job!

[@virginialuh6842]

Thanks for including Canadian airlines! And so glad to know I’m not the only crazy one about making sure it fits in the sizers. Also I have good experience with heys Airlite for its lightness and size for air canada. Would love to hear your opinion

[@alysmalls]

Been wanting to try Heys, stay tuned!

[@Chainie0505]

Thank you for this, most people don’t test the WestJet sizers and that’s the airline I use most often ❤

Love your videos Aly :) Especially love that you are a fellow Canadian, and that you include the Amazon links for Canada. Great videos, great content and well done. Cheers!

[@alysmalls]

Thanks!

[@J9H5]

Me too! Such a nice change to have Canadian information clearly available!

[@seaspeaktome9167]

Thank you! I have been frustrated finding a bag that meets the posted dimensions. Glad to know some fit the Air Canada sizers. But annoying that there’s a size discrepancy.

[@suzannegamble8170]

Thank you sooo much for doing this video. I highly agree that West Jet sizers are the most difficult to find carry ons for.

[@notactuallymyrealname]

Oh wow, can there be a Part 2 where you bring calipers to measure those bins??

[@patrickpowell2236]

Great video! I always use a backpack carry on because both hands are full when I roll two fully-loaded checked bags from parking.

[@bernie.b]

We just returned from Milan with a layover in Mtl. We use Air Canada carry ons that have a certificate of 'Carry On Approved'.... The lady at the gate approached us about using the bag sizer as they were trying to get people to check some of the carry ons.... She was actually a little rude stating that the attached label stating 'Carry On Approved' meant nothing and she was quite annoyed when I pointed out the labels. She didn't end up measuring the bags but it still left a very bad taste in my mouth, especially after a few delays and long layover. We only travel carry on and bought 'Air Canada brand approved carry ons so that we would not need to deal with hassles. Might have me reconsidering the Airline we fly with in the future!

[@roses.9181]

Air Canada is lacklustre for sure. They're usually rude, and I swear a good chunk of the employees are looking to pick fights with passengers. I try to avoid them. But Westjet hasn't been that great recently either. It's all about making the shareholder happy, not about the consumer.

[@jacquiet6040]

My cousin's husband was a Stewart and he said he would purposely spill something on rude passengers. I boycotted AC years ago.

[@Peizxcv]

“Airline approved” is a stupid tax on people not used to traveling. Airlines can change their policy at will and without prior notice. Plane type can also change without prior notice not to mention airlines give crew discretion on gate checking luggages. If the lady at the gate says the bins are full so they are gate checking or it’s for plane balancing reason, do you think the approved label will help you?

[@bernie.b]

@@Peizxcv Well she reluctantly backed off after I mentioned the labels. It had nothing to do with balancing - most people don't want to check their baggage because of the continued problems of lost luggage. I have never checked a bag in all my years of flying. She was just looking for gullible passengers. Actually the flight was even held at the gate an extra 40 minutes so that friends of one of the pilots could make the flight and the stewards even cleared out one of the overhead equipment areas for their 'carry ons'.... What I didn't mention is that we had equipment with lithium batteries that would not fit in our personal bags in our carry ons that couldn't go into belly of the plane....

[@Peizxcv]

@@bernie.b The point is if they want to check your bag there is nothing you can really do; It’s bag checked or kicked off the flight. Nothing you can do about special privileges either, they can kick you off the plane to give way for airline employees

[@vince9four]

Thanks for such a thorough video on this! I have a 40L backpack style carry-on similar to the TomToc but it has slightly more height . However, being a backpack style, I think it will fit fine even for WestJet.

[@planesandbikes7353]

But watch out for the little CRJ and Q400 where majority of roller bags have to be put in the hold. Almost all flights in and out of my city are in these tiny regional jets, so I use a 36L hiking backpack which fits into any regional jet overhead, squishes into 1/2 size spaces between other folks roller bags, and even under the seat in a pinch.

[@deniseann3012]

Great comparison video! So glad that my new Monos carry on will have no issues in the sizers.

[@cheryllaidlaw979]

I always wanted to try the sizer but was afraid if my Level 8 didn’t fit an airline employee would call me out 😊 thx for doing this!!

[@jimmorgan9381]

Truly enjoy your channel and content. This was a great video!

[@billykuan]

The max size is 22x14x9 most of these bags are slightly bigger in one dimension. What am I missing are the airlines slack and allow that extra 1/2 inch? All the models I look at are also slightly bigger one dimension or another, I don't want to be over and need to check it in.

[@Trudloops]

Thanks for another useful video for planning a trip.

[@jkhmonkey_kfp_pentium_ii_cpu]

This explains why I had to gate check my bag my last flight even though I triple checked the measurements before I went to the airport...

[@HEMAYATC]

Hi there! I really appreciate your videos that actually test the bags in airport sizers! After watching your videos I’ve decided to get the TravelPro Maxlite 5. However, is the version being tested there the Compact version or the regular version? The dimensions shown are of the Compact, but the name provided is the regular version. I would greatly appreciate some clarification. Thank you for your videos!

[@mary66714]

Thank you for the testing and the great 👍🏻 tips. Have a great weekend 😊

[@wayneh8767]

You really have to hold your tongue right to get them in the sizer for Air Canada. For sure great info Aly, thanks for the effort! And your videographer!

[@alysmalls]

I really did haha!

[@davesaunders7080]

For me the 2 wheels are the best by far as I travel the cobblestone streets in Europe and those hard/small 4 wheel designs just are not good for pulling on rough surfaces. Also prefer soft sided.

[@wannabeDarma]

Hi @alysmalls. Thanks for sharing this video. Quick question - Is the Travel Maxlite Pro 5 that is seen in the video the 21" carry-on or the 20" compact carry-on? I only ask because the Amazon link goes to the 21" carry-on, which is 23" rather than the compact version at 22". Maybe a mix-up given Travel Pro makes so many variations of the same bag. Much appreciated!

[@alysmalls]

It's the 21" and I got it from Amazon!

[@wannabeDarma]

@@alysmalls Good to know. Thanks so much!

[@carluccic.2977]

Excellent review, many thanks!

[@Always_listeningandlearning]

Thanks for doing this. I have several of the level 8s so this was helpful.

[@iloveberniekosar]

Great video! I'm trying to decide between the Dakine carry-on roller (42L) and the Travelpro Maxlite softside. While I care about durability, I care more about maximizing space since I'll be packing for 4 months at a time (digital nomad life with washer access!). I welcome any opinions. :)

[@spikenikistan75]

soooooooo... Nextup... Try Personal Item size... afaik if your'e going really really budget, carry-on ain't included only the personal item. However i liked this because it's practical, also, kudos to your hubby for beeing the cameraman with patience and humor ;)

[@54Mello]

Air transat is the one I have the most trouble with! They have reduced the bag allowance and apparently my 22 inch suitcase needs to be checked! In the past I was able to carryon without problem. :(

[@emiliebreault3425]

It's unfortunately 21 inches with Air Transat... hard to find !

[@AlxValverdeC]

have you tested if the osprey meridian 22 suitcase could fit in the carry-on bag? Thank you.

[@RedMcc]

What about Icelandair?! Their dimensions are crazy! None of these options mentioned would "technically" fit according to their dimensions

[@jeremythebeer8609]

Great video. We're duffle bag carry-on people as I want to be mobile at all times as wheels and cobblestones may not mix.... Currently using MEC's FastTrack bag that is no longer available. Tomtoc option looks good.

[@TravelwithIvan]

Monos/Away are great because they also fit on regional jets. I have tried but looks like the Level 8 and TomToc will as well. I have mixed results with B&R and Tumi in terms of getting it to fit in the cage/box.

[@alysmalls]

Good to know, thank you!

[@primalpassion]

For international travel, is it standard for 9" x 14" x 22" bag size? thanks-

[@iangiles3360]

We are heading to Europe tomorrow with Lufthansa and were shocked at their luggage rules. Carry on max 18lbs and smaller. Personal bags can also only be 4" thick. I ended up buying an it luggage carry on at 4lbs.

[@elation8101]

Sometimes it's not about the bag being able to fit in the overhead bin, it's about limiting the number of bags coming into the aircraft cabin. Too many people opt-in to bring a carry-on bags these days instead of a checking the bag in, because of the convenience or/and not trusting the airline.

[@jumbolarge108]

Excellent comparison, thank you so much. Side question: Do you know of any physical stores in Canada that sell the Dakine? It's kind pricey on Amazon.

[@kenta_1806]

Thank you very much for the valuable information. I have a question about Air Canada. I own a carry-on bag that has a depth of 9.8 inches and looks similar to the mixi bag. Air Canada's policy states that the maximum depth is 9 inches. Is there a possibility that my bag will be measured before boarding, and that I may not be allowed to bring it on board?

[@Vivian-iz7yc]

Thank you so much for this video!

[@tnthomas1954]

[@104snowstorm]

Just picked up a Travelpro carry-on, but mine is the "international" size, which is a bit shorter. Seems like it would fit even better than the maxlite 5. Your sweatshirt is so cute! Where's it from, if you don't mind? Thanks for the vid.

Thank you sm for this video, it was very helpful!! You mentioned that you have flown with westjet a lot and I was wondering if westjet asks the passengers to put their hang luggage in the sizers to check whether it's within size?

[@enderman5418]

Hello, Love your video! I'm trying to find the spreadsheet you have on your site with a list of all the bags that fit each airline carrier but I'm having trouble finding it. Where is it in your site?

[@lisanoble8777]

So that's the trick to the cages - wheels first? I have a Tumi and always seem to struggle with the cage while an Air Canada staff member watches me disapprovingly.

[@bpxl53yewz29]

Well, if the wheels stick out it means it goes over the allowed length. The rules state wheels and handles are part of the measurement.

[@michelepineau9657]

I will admit I fly business class when I fly overseas, so my little IT carry-on hasn't been an issue. I have noticed people walking by me to get to economy have bigger bags than I do and they take up space. Even when I did have to fly economy to Italy last year ( was with a large group), my bag posed no problem. The only annoying thing was people seated behind were parking their bags ahead of their rows and I had to put mine 2 rows behind me on one flight- not happy.

[@war-painter]

They do that frequently. Early boarders hog all the overhead compartments on rows 1-15, so when you get to your seat in Row 8, all the overhead compartments are full of junk from people seating way at the back. What is worse, those people dress in tank tops and flip flops, not realizing that twenty minutes into the flight it gets cold! So then they are hanging onto your overhead compartment with their stomachs in your face, squeezing through their stuff looking for warm clothes and socks. Newbie flyers.

[@kaylaybermudo4139]

Thanks for testing all these! Do you have the mixi carry on video/ review on its own?

[@Joe-lb8qn]

Theres a clip where some guy stamps on his case to force it into the sizer to prove to the airline person its within size, and then he cant get it out.

Well… The thing is that airlines seem to weight all carry-on suitcase now. And unless you are flying business, most of them have a limit of 22 lbs. The Gibraltar aluminum suitcase just takes half of it by itself.

[@bailey1945sam]

Is there a case with wheels that folder up to the side so larger bags fit?

[@karenwendt5514]

Test the Cotopaxi 35L for carryon? It is 22x12x10. I watched the TomToc in your video, but I think it’s shorter. Our airline limit is 8kg so I actually cannot pack my Cotopaxi full because I’ll go overweight. Thanks for your video. I’ll go check the website.

[@FrancisSiuChock]

The craziest thing is having an agent tell me that because I had to 'force' my bag into the cage sizer that it did not qualify and had to check my bag in...I actually did not force it in and just give a bit of a nudge...airline shall remain nameless! 🙃

[@bpxl53yewz29]

Just because someone gets through with a bag although it is over the limit, or that it fits in the overhead bin doesn’t mean they have the right to use it. An inch over may not seem a big deal to someone, but put several bags that go an inch over together and the airline has to ask others to check in their intended carry-ons because there is no space. I see it all the time.The question isn’t “does my carry-on fit in the overhead bin”, but “does it stay within the required measurements so other passengers’ bags can also fit.”

[@IWTBFOY]

What about the issue with early boarding group passenger putting both their check in and personal item overhead.

[@Peizxcv]

What you have described it literally a straw man argument. If overhead bin aren’t enough airline gate check luggages for free because they know there is too much variables to know for certain if all carry-on will fit. Not to mention overhead bin size is an airline choice as is seat density. An A321neo can sits 160~210 passengers and Airbus also have 4 different overhead bin design for it depending on plane’s age and airline choice. The idea you should stick to size set 40 years ago is just idiotic. What’s your next argument? Passengers should learn Tetris so they can maximize bin space?

[@bpxl53yewz29]

@@Peizxcv So you’re arguing with airlines who have set the dimensions so they can fit all passengers’ carry-ons? Go cry to the airlines CEOs. The arrogance is astounding. Every one know checked baggage tends to get lost, so even if it’s free nobody wants to do that.

[@Peizxcv]

@@bpxl53yewz29 Wasn’t it you that said people should follow airlines’ multiple arbitrary sizing guidelines so all carry-ons would fit? Now you want to be the rebel and stick to the CEOs? Sounds like you are not only ignorant but also unprincipled

[@ximengtang6731]

What an argument is this?? First of all, have you seen how the overhead bins are configured? They are all divided and each compartment will not fit more than 5 carryons. You are telling me you can fit in a 6th just by shortening each carryon’s width by one inch…

[@jazzcats1000]

I never get earlier boarding than Zone 3, and there's seldom space available by the time I get to board. If I take a suitcase carry on I very often face a very challenging situation. These carry on don't fit under the seats, which are too close to slip the bags under even if size wise they can fit. I therefore always have to use a soft backpack, but then am still screwed being forced to put the bag underneath the seat in front of me, and being six foot tall I need some legroom. Small short people are so lucky! I find it unfair to be honest, watching fortunate early boarders with huge carry ons (1 carry on, and one backpack as "personal item" ) taking 2 upper bin spaces each. Airlines ought to enforce their own rules better! I for one would like to see a ban on hard carry on bags.

[@Ryan2588]

What is your opinion on Solgaard?

[@mzkhan93]

Surprised it’s not on her list

[@mynock250]

If you do that at the gate ….your doing the airline employee jobs for them, they see you do that and will charge you. They are literally watching you when you do that. Don’t get to your gate over early, if its close the employees will not have the chance to check your bag The only solution for flying is to charge everyone for a carry on, let them check 1 bag for free, which historically was how they did it, carryon was VERY expensive.

From what I see happening, pretty soon the only carryon bag you will be able to take will be a briefcase no more than 4 inches thick, or worse yet, only your wallet, which will be thinner than days gone by because you will be forking out so much to fly with more than just the clothes you have on.

Hey, thanks for doing this. Very informative and super helpful. Now, at the risk of being flamed... It is considered rude for men to wear shorts on commercial aircraft, particularly in coach. Especially tall guys like your husband, whom I'm certain is a wonderful person and I mean absolutely no offense. But I can't tell you how many times I have had to endure some strange man's hairy thighs pressed up against me. It's just no fun at all. Women are much less prone to manspreading, and therefore shorts on women usually isn't a big deal. But your guy, as wonderful as I'm sure he is, is wearing some fairly short shorts. And I definitely would not want to be seated next to him.

sounds like you've encountered some weirdos which definitely sucks! I think it's important to remember that people are allowed to be comfortable and can also be respectful while doing so. With Chris being 6'9, he can only fit in an aisle seat, and I'm always beside him, so you won't ever have to worry about that 😉

All govts should require all airlines serving a particular country to have standard carry on and personal item sizes.

Shut up liberal.

MAYBE if airline baggage handlers didn’t abuse customer property, more passengers would be willing to check their luggage.🤔

My carry on size is 22" including wheels, 14.5" x 10" my first time with this carry on....Will I be ok with this?🥴🫠 Thank you so much for that info😊

Having flown hundreds of flights, all over the world, I can say with absolute truth that Westjet used to be one of the best Canadian airlines, however since they were sold a couple of years ago they have become the worst Canadian airline. From cancelations, delays, and the worst, rudest, most unpleasant, flight attendant staff in the business they are now a complete failure as an airline. Best to look for other options..

Air Canada is the worst. Not sizer but airline.
