Where to stow your carry-on baggage

Carry-on baggage must be placed underneath the seat in front of you whenever possible.

On flights that are very full, some hand baggage may need to be checked and carried in the hold due to the lack of space in the cabin. When this happens, the baggage will be checked at the boarding gate and can be collected at baggage reclaim carousel at your destination.

If is too big, or if you are seated in an emergency exit row or the first row of the cabin, the baggage should be placed in the overhead luggage bin.
