Carry-on baggage

Girl with a suitcase
  • Passengers travelling in Business Class; Finnair Plus Platinum, Gold or Silver members; or Finnair Club members: a total of two pieces with a maximum combined weight of 10 kg (22 lb), consisting of one bag with maximum external dimensions of 56x45x25 cm (22x18x10 in.), and one briefcase or laptop computer.
  • Passengers travelling in Economy Class or on oneclass flights, flights within Finland or leisure flights: one piece only with a maximum weight of 8 kg (17.5 lb), consisting of one bag with maximum external dimensions of 56x45x25 cm (22x18x10 in.).
  • Children with a reserved seat are allowed the same amount of carry-on baggage as an adult flying in the same travel class.
  • Infants under two years of age without a reserved seat do not have their own carry-on baggage allowance – the carry-on baggage of infants is considered part of their parent or guardian’s allowance.
  • In addition to the carry-on baggage listed above, passengers travelling in any class may take on board a small handbag, a small camera or binoculars, baby food, reading material, an overcoat, and a necessary mobility aid (such as a cane or elbow crutches).
  • In certain cases due to the limited space on board we may have to ask our customers to check in their carry-on baggage. This is in the interests of your own and other passengers' safety and comfort.

Restrictions

  • For security reasons, sharp objects – such as knives, scissors, corkscrews, knitting needles, tweezers and skates – must not be packed in your carry-on baggage.
  • If you are departing from an EU country, Iceland, Norway or Switzerland, the amount of liquid you can take on board in your carry-on baggage is restricted. Each individual container of liquid must not exceed 100 ml, and all such containers must fit into one transparent and resealable plastic bag no larger than 1 litre.

Because of local regulations, you cannot take alcohol in your carry-on baggage when departing from Beijing or Shanghai airport – you will not be permitted to take alcohol through security control at these airports. You can, however, purchase alcoholic beverages at the duty-free shops in these airports and take them on board in your carry-on baggage. These restrictions also apply to connecting flights within China.
