What to know about Ibom Air carry-on rules

• Among the 24 verified airlines from sub-Saharan Africa, Ibom Air has the largest cabin bag allowance; the strictest is Proflight Zambia (30×25×15 cm).
• In its standard fare, Ibom Air applies exactly the same cabin bag, personal item and weight figures as Saudia, so a bag packed for one of them also passes on Ibom Air.
• As a box, Ibom Air's 56×45×25 cm limit holds about 63 litres, the 6th largest volume of the 170 airlines that publish three cabin bag sides.
• Among the 189 verified airlines that include a measured cabin bag, Ibom Air sits at rank 6; 94% of them allow a smaller total than its 126 cm (49.6 in).
• Compared with the 24 airlines from sub-Saharan Africa on this site, whose cabin bags average 113.8 cm (44.8 in) in total, Ibom Air allows 12.2 cm (4.8 in) more.
• On Ibom Air, 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; the limit is 56×45×25 cm.
• On Ibom Air, 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.
• Across its 2 fares, Ibom Air changes the rules: both include a cabin bag.
• Ibom Air's 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.
• Compared with Ibom Air's 126 cm (49.6 in): at LOS, Air Peace allows 28 cm (11 in) less in total (98 cm (38.6 in)).

Our notes on Ibom Air

Ibom Air publishes two cabin bag sizes depending on the route. On domestic flights, the bigger cabin bag or small trolley may measure up to 56 × 45 × 25 cm (22 × 18 × 10 in) and weigh 7 kg. On regional flights, the limit drops to 40 × 30 × 15 cm (16 × 12 × 6 in), still with 7 kg.

In both cases you may also bring one handbag or laptop bag, which Ibom Air guarantees will travel in the cabin under the seat. The bigger bag does not have that guarantee: on busy flights it may be taken for priority loading in the hold. A domestic-size trolley from Lagos, Abuja or Uyo will not fit the regional limit, so check your route before you pack.
