Understanding the Caribbean Airlines Baggage Policy

Understanding the baggage policy is vital when flying with Caribbean Airlines, in order to facilitate the check-in process and avoid surprises from baggage fees. The Caribbean Airlines Baggage Policy outlines what a passenger may be permitted to bring on board as hand luggage, checked baggage, and specialty items, including what fees and restrictions apply to them. Here you will find everything you need to know about carry-on allowances, allowances for free checked baggage, excess baggage fees, and the rules around special baggage.

Carry-On Baggage Policy
Caribbean Airlines allows passengers to bring one carry-on and one personal item on board. A personal item could be a handbag, a laptop case, or a smaller backpack, provided that it can be stored underneath the seat in front of you.
