It won’t fit. Three words you don’t want to hear when trying to board. To avoid delays and possible checked bag fees, follow these size requirements:
- Baggage may not exceed 45 linear inches (or 114 cm) in combined length, width and height, including any handles and wheels, with the exception of small musical instruments that fit in the overhead compartment space or under-seat space available at the time of boarding
- Baggage must fit easily in the Carry-on Baggage Check (approximately 22″ x 14″ x 9″ or 56 x 35 x 23 cm), which is located near the check-in counters
Passengers traveling on Delta Connection flights, and only those flights with fifty (50) seats or less, are only permitted to carry personal items on board the aircraft due to limited overhead space. Personal items must be able to fit securely under the seat in front of the passenger. All carry-on bags within Delta’s size restrictions will be gate checked, free of charge, during the boarding process and returned upon deplaning. Please ensure that a pink Gate Claim/Planeside tag is securely attached to the carry-on item. Assistive devices are not subject to this restriction.
If you need information about items such as knitting needles or razors, please consult the TSA websiteopens in a new window.
All baggage fees listed below are current and applicable for all ticketing on or after today when Delta’s baggage rules are determined to apply. If you ticketed before today, please refer to Delta’s previous checked baggage page for more details. You can also refer to your e-Receipt issued by Delta for detailed baggage fee information.
Within 24 hours of your departure, you can tell us how many bags you will check and pay any fees quickly and easilyonline. That means one less thing you will have to do at the airport. When you arrive at the airport, you can drop off your checked baggage at the nearest baggage drop, marked with red “Baggage Drop” signage, or curbside check-in station (available within 6 hours of departure time). You may also check your bags at the airport kiosk, ticket counter, or curbside.
If your bag exceeds weight or size limits, please review the Additional, Overweight, and Oversized Baggage section. You may also carry on one bag and one small personal item at no charge. Visit our Carry-on Baggage section for more information. More restrictive baggage rules apply on some flights operated by our Codeshare partners.

SPECIAL ITEMS ARE BAGGAGE, TOO:
We know that your baggage doesn’t always fit neatly into a suitcase or regular-sized bag. That’s why we accommodate baggage of all shapes and sizes. When you arrive at the airport baggage counter, we will determine if your item requires special care, and/or additional fees. Each special item counts as one bag.
