ℹ️ Figures are for standard economy and reflect the airline's published limits. Fares, routes and frequent-flyer tiers can change these — always confirm on Aer Lingus's official website before you fly.

🧳 Carry-on rules

No additional personal item in the basic fare. To clear the gate sizer easily, keep your cabin bag within 55×40×24 cm and under 10 kg. A soft, slightly flexible bag is more forgiving than a rigid case.

🎒 Checked baggage

The standard checked allowance is 20 kg per bag. No free checked bag (must be purchased). Overweight bags trigger fees that often cost more than the ticket — weigh before you leave home.

💡 OneBag tip: Add Aer Lingus in OneBag and the app tracks your packed weight live against the 10 kg cabin / 20 kg checked limit — with separate progress bars for each bag, so you never get stopped at the gate.
