easyJet Cabin Bag Size (2026)

easyJet: free small cabin bag 45×36×20 cm under the seat (15 kg). Large 56×45×25 only with Inclusive Plus, Smart+, Plus, or paid add-on. Gate £60. Verified 2026-09-17.

Quick answer

On easyJet, every customer gets one small under-seat cabin bag free: max 45 × 36 × 20 cm including any handles and wheels, must fit under the seat, max 15 kg, lift and carry yourself. A large cabin bag (max 56 × 45 × 25 cm including handles and wheels, 15 kg, overhead) is not on Standard. Add it online (price varies by route, date and demand), or get it with Inclusive Plus, Smart+, or easyJet Plus (add the large bag to the booking and enter your membership number for free). Paid or included large cabin bag also includes Speedy Boarding. At the boarding gate, bringing a large cabin bag without entitlement costs £60 and it goes in the hold. Max cabin pieces per person: two (one small + one large when entitled). Confirm live prices on easyjet.com before you fly.

Standard trap: Standard = under-seat only. The overhead trolley is paid or bundled (Inclusive Plus / Smart+ / Plus).
Up Front trap (stale blogs): Booking Up Front / Extra Legroom no longer automatically includes the large cabin bag. Confirm large bag on the booking / boarding pass.
Plus / Inclusive Plus space caveat: Without adding the large bag in advance (Plus) or when lockers are full, large bag may go hold free. Keep valuables in the small bag.

Availability: Limited large cabin bags per flight; book early. If sold out, hold bag options (15 kg etc.) apply. Cross-link fees.

Gotchas

  1. Standard ≠ trolley. Free bag is 45 × 36 × 20 under the seat only.
  2. Wheels and handles count on both sizes.
  3. 15 kg on small and large. Older “unlimited cabin weight” press is stale.
  4. Up Front / Extra Legroom ≠ free large bag anymore. It is a standalone product.
  5. Auto-allocated Up Front still = small only.
  6. Gate without entitlement = £60 hold.
  7. Plus / Inclusive Plus: add large bag in advance when possible; otherwise space-subject.
  8. Speedy Boarding rides with large bag / Smart+ / Inclusive Plus / Plus. Not sold alone.
  9. Restricted seats: small bags may need overhead for take-off/landing (FAQs).
  10. Partner / connections by easyJet may differ. Use the operating rules on your itinerary.

Traveler caution: On Standard you get the under-seat bag only. The 56×45×25 trolley is Inclusive Plus, Smart+, easyJet Plus, or a paid add-on, not “because I picked Up Front.” Confirm sizes and online fees on easyjet.com before you fly.

FAQ

What is the easyJet cabin bag size?
Free for everyone: one small cabin bag max 45 × 36 × 20 cm including handles and wheels, under the seat, 15 kg, lift yourself. Optional or fare-included large cabin bag: 56 × 45 × 25 cm including handles and wheels, 15 kg, overhead. Official cabin-bags page opened 2026-09-17.

Does easyJet Standard include a large cabin bag / carry-on trolley?
No. Standard is the flight plus the small under-seat bag. Large cabin bag is an add-on, or included on Inclusive Plus, Smart+, or easyJet Plus.

Does buying an Up Front or Extra Legroom seat get me a free large cabin bag?
Not automatically. easyJet sells the large cabin bag as a standalone option. Cabin-bags help: if you are auto-allocated Up Front/Extra Legroom, allowance stays one small under-seat bag. Check the booking for a large cabin bag product.

How much is an easyJet large cabin bag?
Online: fees vary by route, flight, demand, and when you book. Price shown at purchase / Manage Bookings / app. Boarding gate without entitlement: £60 (cabin goes to hold). Treat old “from £5.99” headlines with caution unless Fees & Charges still prints a floor. Confirm live on easyjet.com.

I’m easyJet Plus / Inclusive Plus — is the large bag guaranteed onboard?
Best: add the large cabin bag to the booking (Plus = free with membership number). If you only show card/boarding pass without advance add, or lockers are full, official copy: large bag may go in the hold free. Pack valuables in the small bag.

Is there an easyJet cabin bag weight limit?
Yes: 15 kg for the small bag and 15 kg for the large bag, plus you must lift and carry each yourself (cabin-bags page 2026-09-17).
