What to know about Aegean Airlines carry-on rules

• From ATH and SKG, Aegean Airlines mainly connects Greece with Cyprus, Italy, Germany, France and United Kingdom.
• Among the 43 verified airlines from Europe, Aegean Airlines has the largest cabin bag allowance; the strictest is Loganair (40×35×18 cm).
• In its standard fare, Aegean Airlines applies exactly the same cabin bag, personal item and weight figures as Air Astana and Max Air, so a bag packed for one of them also passes on Aegean Airlines.
• In volume terms the Aegean Airlines cabin bag reaches about 63 L; 5 of the 170 airlines with published sides allow a bigger box.
• Aegean Airlines ranks 6th of 189 verified airlines by cabin bag size in the standard fare: its 126 cm (49.6 in) total is bigger than 94% of them.
• Aegean Airlines' cabin bag totals 126 cm (49.6 in), 9.3 cm (3.7 in) more than the average of the 43 verified airlines from Europe (116.7 cm (45.9 in)).
• Of the 21 Star Alliance airlines verified here, Aegean Airlines comes 1st by cabin bag size; the range runs from United Airlines at 114.3 cm (45 in) to Aegean Airlines at 126 cm (49.6 in).
• Tested against Aegean Airlines' 56×45×25 cm limit, a standard US carry-on of 22 × 14 × 9 in (55.9 × 35.6 × 22.9 cm) fits, but with only 0.1 cm (0 in) to spare on the length.
• On Aegean Airlines, a typical European cabin case of 55 × 40 × 20 cm (21.7 × 15.7 × 7.9 in) fits, but with only 1 cm (0.4 in) to spare on the length; the limit is 56×45×25 cm.
• The 2 Aegean Airlines fares on this page are not equal: both include a cabin bag.
• Of 177 verified airlines with a published cabin weight limit, 53 allow more than Aegean Airlines' 8 kg (17.6 lb) for the cabin bag and 84 allow less.
• Exceptions noted on the official Aegean Airlines page: On Aegean's Economy Light fare, you bring either the personal item or the carry-on bag, not both. (official text: “Included 1 personal item placed under the seat OR 1 carry-on bag up to 8kg”) On Aegean's turboprop fleet, the carry-on size is smaller than on its Airbus fleet. (official text: “Turboprop fleet:55 cm x 40 cm x 23 cm”)
• Compared with Aegean Airlines' 126 cm (49.6 in): at ATH, SKY express allows 8 cm (3.1 in) less in total (118 cm (46.5 in)).
