Our notes on Drukair

Drukair uses a small cabin bag size on all its flights: 45 × 35 × 20 cm (17 × 13 × 8 in), with the three sides adding up to no more than 100 cm. A standard 55 cm cabin case does not fit, whatever its weight.

The weight depends on the class: 5 kg in Economy and 7 kg in Business. Drukair also asks that all cabin baggage fit in the overhead bin. Infants travelling on a lap without their own seat have no baggage allowance, while an infant with a seat gets the normal adult allowance. For flights to and from Paro, pack a compact soft bag rather than a trolley.
