Air Transat Manchester hand baggage checkin query

[Scottie Dog]

My apologies for invading this forum, but I hope somebody maybe able to provide an answer to my question.

I'm planning on flying Club Class with TSC next summer to Vancouver and note that there is a slight vagueness in the wording for hand baggage on the Canadian Affairs website:

The size of hand luggage cannot exceed 23 x 40 x 51 centimetres on Air Transat flights (sizes are approximate).

I am planning on taking camera equipment with me that goes in a backpack style case, the dimensions of which are: 25 x 36 x 51 cm. When I spoke to Canadian Affairs they advised that it 'should be okay', but obviously it would be difficult if I had to try to reorganise at checkin.

Does anybody know, from current experience, how strict Air Transat at on keeping to the exact measurement?

Thanks in advance.

Hand baggage rules aren't strictly enforced, unless your bag looks massively bigger than what's allowed :ok: I wouldn't worry. Check your PMs
