What is the size of an Air France carry-on bag?
amin bram
At Air France, baggage policy is based on a clear distinction between the free personal item and the main carry-on bag. Both items are permitted together depending on the ticket type, but they must comply with specific dimensions as well as an overall weight limit. Failure to comply may result in refusal in the cabin or placement in the hold.
It is therefore essential to clearly differentiate between the two formats and to anticipate the total weight before boarding.
