FAQ
How strict is ITA Airways with cabin bag size?
ITA Airways does enforce its cabin bag policy, especially on full flights. The standard allowance is one cabin bag (55 x 35 x 25 cm) with a weight limit of 8 kg. Bags that exceed these dimensions may need to be checked in, potentially with an added fee. A personal item is also allowed, but it must fit under the seat. Choosing a suitcase designed to fit ITA Airways’ limits is the best way to ensure a smooth boarding experience, especially if you want to avoid any extra costs at the airport.
Do I need to pay for hand luggage on ITA Airways?
No – hand luggage is included in all fare types with ITA Airways. Your cabin allowance includes one standard cabin bag and one small personal item. However, if your bag exceeds the permitted size or weight, it may have to be checked into the hold at an additional charge. Travellers on higher-class tickets or with elite status may have increased baggage allowances, but it’s always worth double-checking your fare type. To avoid surprises, measure and weigh your luggage before departure.
Can I bring a laptop bag and a suitcase on ITA Airways?
Yes – ITA Airways allows one cabin bag (for the overhead compartment) and one smaller personal item that fits under the seat. A laptop bag counts as your personal item, so you can carry both, provided they stay within the size and weight limits. Be sure your cabin suitcase is no larger than 55 x 35 x 25 cm and under 8 kg. Opting for compact luggage with dedicated laptop compartments – like those in our business travel collection – keeps everything secure and organised.
