How much is a carry-on bag with ITA Airways?

Alitalia or ITA Airways doesn’t charge you anything for a personal item and a standard carry-on. But there are limits to the dimensions and weight of these items. Before you proceed to the boarding gate, ITA Airways ground personnel at the check-in will help you out. You can also use baggage measurers placed near the check-in counter to see if it will be allowed on-board. A handbag, work backpack, and laptop computer will qualify as a personal item.

The size restrictions of a personal item should not be more than 45x36x20 cm. The size restrictions for hand baggage under ITA Airways carry on policy is 55x 35x25 cm. When there is a high load factor, hand baggage may be put into the hold. The selected hand baggage will be selected and tagged. A receipt for baggage reclaims will be provided to you.
