Alaska bag rules worth knowing
- Alaska and Hawaiian now share one carry-on policy, so the same 22 × 14 × 9 in limit applies on both.
- Expandable pockets count: measure the bag expanded, including wheels and handles.
- Alaska publishes no size: a purse, briefcase or laptop bag that fits under the seat.
