What to know about Air Seychelles carry-on rules

Air Seychelles is based in Seychelles with its hub at SEZ, and its main markets include India, South Africa, Mauritius, United Arab Emirates and Israel.
Among the 24 verified airlines from sub-Saharan Africa, Air Seychelles has the 6th largest cabin bag allowance; the strictest is Proflight Zambia (30×25×15 cm).
In its standard fare, Air Seychelles applies exactly the same cabin bag, personal item and weight figures as Bhutan Airlines, Jazeera Airways and Libyan Wings, so a bag packed for one of them also passes on Air Seychelles.
As a box, Air Seychelles' 55×40×20 cm limit holds about 44 litres, the 117th largest volume of the 170 airlines that publish three cabin bag sides.
With a total size of 115 cm (45.3 in), the Air Seychelles cabin bag is larger than 19% of the 189 verified airlines that include a measured cabin bag in their standard fare (rank 50 of 189, largest first).
Compared with the 24 airlines from sub-Saharan Africa on this site, whose cabin bags average 113.8 cm (44.8 in) in total, Air Seychelles allows 1.2 cm (0.5 in) more.
A standard US carry-on of 22 × 14 × 9 in (55.9 × 35.6 × 22.9 cm) is 2.9 cm (1.1 in) too big on the depth (and 1 other limit) when measured against Air Seychelles' 55×40×20 cm.
A typical European cabin case of 55 × 40 × 20 cm (21.7 × 15.7 × 7.9 in) matches the limit exactly (0 cm margin) when measured against Air Seychelles' 55×40×20 cm.
The 3 Air Seychelles fares on this page are not equal: all 3 include a cabin bag. Weight limits vary by fare: 7 kg, 12 kg and 5 kg.
Air Seychelles' 7 kg (15.4 lb) limit for the cabin bag is stricter than 93 of the 177 airlines that publish a cabin weight limit, and looser than 11 of them.
