These are pieces of baggage that you can carry with you in the aircraft cabin.
You can take one carry-on bag and one personal item.
If you travel without carry-on baggage, you can board the aircraft sooner (on Iberia-operated flights originating in Europe, except London).
Because of limited capacity in the aircraft cabin, exceptionally on busy flights some carry-on baggage may be removed and stored in the hold at no extra cost.
If your carry-on baggage is larger than standard it will be placed in the hold and you may have to pay an additional charge.
Maximum size per piece of baggage.
56cm x 45cm x 25cmHandle, pocket compartments and wheels included in the dimensions.
Baggage that exceeds these measurements must be checked-in.
These pieces should fit in the size-check device located at the airports and you must be able to lift them into the overhead locker by yourself .
There are some exceptions.

The Iberia Regional Air Nostrum aircrafts are smaller so there may be some limitations as to what you can take with you in the cabin. In this case, your luggage would be placed in the luggage hold and be available for collection upon arrival.
Sometimes, in high-occupancy flights, if there is not enough space in the cabin, carry-on baggage may travel in the hold at no extra cost to the passenger.

This measure applies to all IB5000 passengers who have previously checked-in the hold baggage item they are entitled to as excess allowance. If the IB5000 passenger has no checked-in baggage, the hand baggage that must be removed at the boarding gate will be exempt from the €35 surcharge.
