What to know about Vueling carry-on rules
- From BCN, Vueling mainly connects Spain with France, Italy, United Kingdom, Netherlands and Morocco.
- Vueling's All bookings fare has no free cabin bag, while 66 of the 80 verified airlines we track include one with a published size.
- On Vueling, 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) (limit: 55×40×20 cm).
- A typical European cabin case of 55 × 40 × 20 cm (21.7 × 15.7 × 7.9 in) fits exactly at the limit on the length when measured against Vueling's 55×40×20 cm.
- Across its 2 fares, Vueling changes the rules: 1 of the 2 include a cabin bag; on All bookings the cabin bag is a paid extra.
Our notes on Vueling
On Vueling, the overhead-locker bag depends on who you are as much as on your fare. It comes with the Fly Grande bundle, with Fly if you pick that option while booking, and for Vueling Club Premium members. It is also included if you travel with a baby aged 7 days to 2 years, or if you have requested airport assistance for a disability or reduced mobility.
Everyone else starts with the free under-seat bag, and whatever you buy at the airport has to fit under the seat together with it. Shopping carried next to a full backpack is not a second free item.
If you know you will need the overhead bag, Vueling says adding it in advance costs less than at the airport, and the bag then stays with you in the cabin instead of being checked in.
