All customers can bring one main piece of hand baggage on-board weighing up to 12kg, plus one personal item (such as a small handbag, purse, small briefcase, laptop bag, baby-changing bag, etc). Personal items are accepted at bmi regional’s discretion. Hand baggage must have a maximum length of 55cm, width of 40cm and depth of 23cm.

Larger pieces of hand baggage will have DAA tags ( ‘Deliver At Aircraft side’) attached to them at check-in or the gate. This tag is used for items that don’t fit in the overhead locker. These items are placed in the hold and passengers are then able to collect those items at the aircraft side on arrival.
