no weight restriction on hand baggage

easyJet has removed the weight restriction on hand baggage for all passengers. The only stipulation is that they must be able to lift their bag safely into the overhead lockers themselves without assistance, so the weight must be within reason.

In order to comply with safety regulations of the UK Civil Aviation Authority, and to reflect the limited space in the overhead storage bins, there will be a size limit, which means that your bag must not be bigger than 55x40x20 cm – but this is 40% bigger than before! These fantastic new hand baggage rules will give passengers the freedom to carry more than they can on the Club Class of traditional airlines – but without the extortionate fares!

This new allowance will be particularly attractive to easyJet’s many business passengers who already fly with Europe’s number one low-cost airline, benefiting from conveniently located city airports (not airstrips miles away), 30 minute check-in times, high-frequency routes, great punctuality, and some of Europe’s lowest fares!
