Asked 6 months ago
Virgin Atlantic has specific restrictions on carry-on luggage to ensure the safety and comfort of all passengers. Each passenger is generally allowed to bring one piece of hand luggage onboard, which must not exceed the dimensions of 56 cm x 36 cm x 23 cm. In addition to the main piece of hand luggage, passengers are permitted to carry a smaller personal item, such as a handbag, laptop bag, or duty-free shopping bag, which should fit under the seat in front of them. The weight limit for the main piece of hand luggage is typically up to 10 kilograms for economy class and 12 kilograms for upper class and premium economy. It is essential to note that restrictions may vary based on the specific fare class or flight route. Passengers are encouraged to check the official Virgin Atlantic website for the most current carry-on luggage policies and to ensure they comply with security regulations regarding prohibited items, such as liquids and sharp objects.
