Our notes on Air Seoul
Since 1 May 2022, Air Seoul measures carry-on baggage including handles and wheels. The bag may total 115 cm, with no side over 55 cm, 40 cm and 20 cm, and must weigh less than 10 kg.
Air Seoul also lets you bring one additional small item, such as a briefcase, laptop or duty-free goods, but the 10 kg is a total for both pieces, not per bag. Large musical instruments up to 115 cm (55 × 40 × 20 cm) can travel in the cabin only with an extra seat purchased for them. Leaving Incheon, weigh the two pieces together before you go.
