EasyJet Hand Baggage Size
Every passenger is entitled to bring one small carry-on bag on board at no charge – yay! Perfect for weekend escapes and city breaks, this usually allows enough room for an outfit or two and some travel-size toiletries. For hand baggage, most people usually pick:
Carry-on suitcases
Travel backpacks
Handbags
Laptop bags
The ideal choice for EasyJet hand baggage size is something compact, as it’ll need to easily fit under your seat on the flight.
EasyJet Checked Baggage Dimensions

The maximum size of hand baggage is 17.7" x 14.2" x 7.9" (including handles and wheels).

EasyJet Luggage Allowance
Passengers can purchase up to three checked hold bags per booking – over-packers take note! The weight of a standard checked bag is 50.1 lbs (23 kg). However, you can buy extra weight per 6.6 lb (3kg) units, up to a limit of 70.5 lbs (32 kg). You cannot have an item that weighs more than 70.5 lbs (32 kg) nor exceed the dimensions of 108.2".

If the infant has their own seat, they are entitled to the standard hand baggage allowance. Children over two years old with their own seat have the same hand baggage allowance as adult passengers.
Packing Tips for EasyJet Flights
Use Packing Cubes: Organize your belongings efficiently and maximize space.
Wear Bulky Items: To save baggage space, wear heavier clothing items during the flight. We won’t judge!
Check Bag Dimensions: Ensure your bags meet easyJet's size requirements to avoid additional fees and avoid any extra charges.
Purchase Additional Allowances in Advance: It's more cost-effective to add extra baggage online before your flight – plus it’ll make for a stress-free airport experience!
