what are the acceptable dimensions for carry on luggage when flying?

Answer 1

It actually varies from carrier to carrier and depends on if you want to put it in the overhead or under the seat in front of you! Generally it's about 24" x 16" x 10". Sometimes they have weight restrictions too, so it always pays to check with your carrier.
