Hand Baggage

What is the cabin baggage allowance?
The total cabin baggage allowance is 7 kg, plus an additional 3 kg for a personal item. This includes your carry-on bag, personal item, and any duty-free purchases:

• 1 cabin bag: max 55 × 40 × 20 cm (up to 7kg).
• 1 personal item (e.g., laptop bag/handbag): max 25 × 33 × 20 cm (up to 3kg)
• Duty-free purchases, as long as the combined total remains within 10 kg

What happens if my cabin baggage exceeds the allowed weight or size?
If your cabin baggage exceeds the limit, you may be required to:

• Check it in at the counter (fees may apply), or
• Repack/remove items to meet the allowance
• If your bag still exceeds the limit at the boarding gate, a fee of AED 100 per piece may apply.
