What to know about StarFlyer carry-on rules

• Among the 31 verified airlines from East Asia, StarFlyer has the 2nd largest cabin bag allowance; the strictest is 9 Air (20×30×40 cm).
• As a box, StarFlyer's 55×40×25 cm limit holds about 55 litres, the 19th largest volume of the 170 airlines that publish three cabin bag sides.
• With a total size of 115 cm (45.3 in), the StarFlyer 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).
• The average cabin bag of the 31 verified carriers from East Asia adds up to 112.9 cm (44.5 in); StarFlyer's limit is 2.1 cm (0.8 in) more than that.
• On StarFlyer, a standard US carry-on of 22 × 14 × 9 in (55.9 × 35.6 × 22.9 cm) is 0.9 cm (0.3 in) too big on the length; the limit is 55×40×25 cm.
• Tested against StarFlyer's 55×40×25 cm limit, a typical European cabin case of 55 × 40 × 20 cm (21.7 × 15.7 × 7.9 in) matches the limit exactly (0 cm margin) on 3 sides.
• StarFlyer's 10 kg (22 lb) limit for the cabin bag is stricter than 9 of the 177 airlines that publish a cabin weight limit, and looser than 129 of them.
• Besides the 55×40×25 cm sides, StarFlyer caps the sum of length, width and height at 115 cm.

Our notes on StarFlyer

StarFlyer publishes a simple carry-on rule for its Japanese domestic flights: one piece per person, with the three sides adding up to 115 cm or less, within 55 × 40 × 25 cm, and weighing up to 10 kg.

The 25 cm depth and the 10 kg weight are both a little more generous than many international limits. StarFlyer's page states the rule for domestic routes only, so check the conditions separately for any other flight. Between Kitakyushu and Tokyo Haneda, a standard cabin case up to 25 cm deep fits the allowance. Travellers arriving with a US-sized 22 × 14 × 9 in carry-on should note that 55 cm is about 21.7 in, so that suitcase is slightly too long for StarFlyer's limit, although its width and depth fit comfortably.
