Why Verified Baggage Data Matters

Gate fees for oversized cabin bags now regularly exceed £50–100 depending on the airline. Airlines like Ryanair and Wizz Air actively enforce size restrictions, particularly at busy airports like London Stansted and Dublin.

TravelHub collects dimension data directly from airline policy pages and cross-references it with thousands of crowdsourced traveller reports. Our strictness scores tell you how likely your bag is to be checked at the gate — not just what the policy says, but how it's actually enforced.

For transit routes, we verify schedules, pricing, and ground-truth details like ticket office locations, luggage storage availability, and local SIM card pickup points.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TravelHub?
TravelHub provides verified airline baggage rules, transit route logistics, and travel calculators. All dimension data is sourced from official airline policy pages and cross-referenced with crowdsourced traveller reports. Updated March 2026.
How are strictness scores calculated?
Strictness scores are derived from crowdsourced traveller reports submitted through our reporting system. Each report is reviewed before contributing to the score. A score of 8+ means the airline actively checks bags at the gate. See our methodology page for details.
How often is data updated?
Dimension records are re-verified on a rolling schedule. Strictness scores refresh as new reports accumulate. The "Verified" date on each page shows when that record was last confirmed. Calculator assumptions are updated when operator pricing changes.
Which airline is strictest about carry-on bags?
Ryanair scores 9/10 on our strictness scale, making it the strictest airline we track. London Stansted, Dublin, and Milan Bergamo airports are particularly strict. Wizz Air (8/10) and easyJet (7/10) also actively enforce limits.
