I have not found one airline that has a size restriction which meets the IATA dimensions.
Every airline on the link which VinceVermotti posted is outside the IATA dimensions, KLM being the closest.
I checked the two major European carries (pax numbers) Easyjet & Ryanair, plus my own airline and they do not meet the dimensions either.
I am someone who does not bring a wheeled case inside the a/c, l put my one where it belongs in the hold.
Yes the new size is going to be a inconvenience and be an extra cost for a lot of people, but it could be worse.
Maybe the FAA & EASA should be looking at banning the carrying of bags, until passengers can be trusted not to carry them when carrying out an emergency evacuation, as seems to be the norm now.
