What to know about Nok Air carry-on rules
- From DMK, Nok Air mainly connects Thailand with India, Vietnam and Myanmar (Burma).
- Among the 17 verified airlines from Southeast Asia, Nok Air has the largest cabin bag allowance; the strictest is Super Air Jet (40×30×20 cm).
- In volume terms the Nok Air cabin bag reaches about 46.4 L; 79 of the 170 airlines with published sides allow a bigger box.
- Nok Air ranks 50th of 189 verified airlines by cabin bag size in the standard fare: its 115 cm (45.3 in) total is bigger than 19% of them.
- Nok Air's cabin bag totals 115 cm (45.3 in), 1.6 cm (0.6 in) more than the average of the 17 verified airlines from Southeast Asia (113.4 cm (44.6 in)).
- On Nok 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 36×56×23 cm.
- Tested against Nok Air's 36×56×23 cm limit, a typical European cabin case of 55 × 40 × 20 cm (21.7 × 15.7 × 7.9 in) is 4 cm (1.6 in) too big on the width.
- Of 177 verified airlines with a published cabin weight limit, 93 allow more than Nok Air's 7 kg (15.4 lb) for both bags together and 11 allow less.
- Nok Air counts both bags in one 7 kg total on every fare, so a heavy personal item reduces what the cabin bag may weigh.
Our notes on Nok Air
Nok Air allows two pieces of hand baggage on its Boeing 737 flights: one carry-on bag of up to 36 × 56 × 23 cm and one small item such as a handbag or laptop bag. The two share a combined weight of 7 kg.
The 36 cm width is narrower than the 40 cm of many cabin cases, and the 7 kg covers both pieces, not each one. A 6 kg trolley leaves just 1 kg for a laptop bag. Flying from Bangkok Don Mueang, weigh the two items together and check the width of your case before you leave home.
