How to use this page

The fee table is most useful when you read it alongside the airline fee guide, fare rules, and related baggage references.

Carry-on measurements usually include wheels and handles. A bag marketed as "22 inches" can still fail if the real outer shell runs tall or will not compress when gate staff starts enforcing size visually.
