Easyjet's cabin baggage allowance is rather more generous than is (theoretically) permitted by most airlines.

However, the airliner-mountaineers with their ridiculously large backpacks and those who insist on wheeling their wardrobes into the aircraft may soon have to think again. But according to the Daily Mail, IATA are proposing a limit of 55 x 35 x 20 cm, which is smaller than is allowed by most airlines.

I think that it's a bit ridiculous to 'recommend' a limit which is less than the recommended value (55 x 40 x 20) which has actually been in place for years now.

More arguments at check-in, longer queues at the luggage delivery belt - that's going to make airline travel such fun....

Which will mean more and more angry and unruly passengers for the flight attendants to deal with....and more incidents requiring police presence, though hopefully without Tasers.
