IT'S ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO CHECK THE HAND LUGGAGE ALLOWANCES OF YOUR CHOSEN AIRLINE BEFORE JETTING OFF ON HOLIDAY, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY CAN CHANGE SO FREQUENTLY 05:30, 21 May

2025Updated 13:52, 21 May 2025 Packing for a holiday is arguably one of the most stressful and tiresome tasks. Whether it's making sure you've got everything you could possibly

need - such as that extra pair of swimming trunks, a bottle of sun cream or your favourite sunglasses - or that your luggage is of the right size and not too heavy to avoid any last second

panic. The difficult thing is there are so many different airlines that have varying size and weight requirements, so it's easy to get mixed up, turn up at the airport and then be faced

with costly fees. What makes this an even more complicated process is that these allowances change quite frequently, so it's important to keep an eye out. And that's where The

Mirror comes in. Here's a breakdown of the latest luggage requirements for all the major airlines. READ MORE: Flight attendant weighs in on ‘unacceptable’ seat trend most take part in
