Carry-on –Free on Board
Hand luggage – with WITTCHEN, comfort and style go hand in hand
Are you going on a trip and planning to take only hand luggage in the form of a backpack that must hold all your essentials? Or is a checked suitcase not enough? In this category of the WITTCHEN store, you'll find a variety of options that meet the size requirements for free carry-on luggage allowed on board.
Backpack or bag for the plane – free hand luggage
Need a break and looking for cheap flights to one of Europe’s capitals? It’s a great way to reset and escape household chores. Most likely, it also means you need to pack everything into one bag, backpack, or suitcase that doesn’t exceed 40x20x20 cm or slightly larger. Why this size? Low-cost airlines allow free hand luggage only if it fits under the passenger seat. This means a cabin suitcase is too big and taking one may involve a baggage fee.
So what types of hand luggage from WITTCHEN’s offer can you take on board? Here are several options available in this category:
- urban backpacks,
- suitcases,
- laptop bags,
- travel bags.
Want to be sure the selected model will fly free? In the specifications of each suitcase, bag, or travel backpack, you'll find information about which airlines' requirements it meets!
A backpack for the plane tailored to your style!
Everyone is different – and so are our travel styles. Some can’t imagine vacation without a wheeled suitcase, for others, a small carry-on like a backpack or bag is the only option, especially when heading to places where terrain makes dragging a suitcase impractical. If you're one of these people – be sure to check out our spacious backpacks and travel bags.
There are a few more aspects that matter when choosing the right hand luggage. Not only size, but also weight is crucial. Limits usually go up to 10 kg, and the lighter the travel bag, the more of your belongings you can bring. Durability is also key. At WITTCHEN, you'll find bags, travel backpacks, hiking backpacks, and suitcases made of durable nylon or ABS.
One suitcase not enough for your dream vacation?
Are you someone who would love to take half their wardrobe on a week-long trip? You're not alone. In this case, we also recommend buying a hand luggage bag in a tone that matches your large suitcase. This way, you can take on board some items that didn’t fit in your checked baggage. Remember security control — pack your carry-on so that all liquids (in containers up to 100 ml) and electronics (like a camera) are easily accessible. Our collection includes travel bags and backpacks with various pockets and compartments to help you access what you need.
Hand luggage dimensions – how to choose the right model?
When planning a trip, it’s essential to know the hand luggage dimensions, which vary by airline. For Ryanair, the standard is 40x20x25 cm, which allows a bag or backpack to be placed under the seat. For Wizzair, it’s 40x30x20 cm, offering a bit more space. Airlines like LOT allow slightly larger hand luggage – up to 55x40x23 cm for cabin suitcases. To avoid extra charges, it’s worth checking the airline's free on board policy, which defines the luggage permitted on board at no extra cost. When choosing from WITTCHEN’s offer, you can be sure the specifications clearly indicate compatibility with different carriers.
Backpack as hand luggage – the ideal solution for travelers
If you're looking for a comfortable and practical solution, a backpack as hand luggage might be your best bet. This type of luggage meets the requirements of airlines such as Ryanair (40x20x25) and Wizzair (40x30x20), while also ensuring wearing comfort. Backpacks offer many pockets and compartments to help you organize items during travel. A lightweight backpack is often more ergonomic than a small suitcase, especially when facing uneven terrain or long distances. In WITTCHEN’s collection, you’ll find a wide selection of backpacks combining functionality with modern design to suit the needs of today’s travelers.
Hand luggage bag – elegance and convenience
Wondering which bag is best as hand luggage on a plane? For those who value a classic style, a hand luggage bag is the ideal choice. This type of luggage features an elegant appearance that perfectly complements more formal outfits. The hand luggage bags offered by WITTCHEN are made from high-quality materials like eco-leather or durable nylon, ensuring strength. With various sizes and constructions, these bags meet the free on board standards of most airlines. A hand luggage bag is also perfect for short business trips when you need a convenient and presentable onboard solution.
Hand luggage suitcase – classic with a modern twist
A hand luggage suitcase is a great choice for those who value organization and comfort. The suitcases in WITTCHEN’s offer stand out with their light construction, durability, and thoughtful design, meeting airline requirements like LOT hand luggage or size limits for Ryanair and Wizzair. Models with wheels and telescopic handles make transport easy in any situation. The range includes suitcases in various colors and styles, so you can match your luggage to your individual needs. WITTCHEN’s carry-on suitcases combine functionality and aesthetics, making them the perfect travel companion.
At WITTCHEN, there’s something for everyone
Some people believe hand luggage should look elegant and prestigious, which is why they choose black, beige, or gold. But many like to stand out not only with clothes but also with bold colors or patterns in their accessories. That’s why our offer includes hand luggage in almost every color. We don’t limit your options – on the contrary, we constantly add something new to our collection! Tired of solid-colored suitcases? Go for one with leopard print or a pineapple or monstera pattern.
