About the British Airways row. BA have withdrawn the hand baggage allowances page we used to read, and now publish the figure through an interactive baggage calculator instead of on a page we can link you to. The figure shown is the last one we read from them, on 13 September 2026, and we have left it here because it is more useful than a blank. Treat it as the last known figure rather than a checked one, and confirm it in BA's own calculator before you fly.
TUI's larger hand luggage allowance is 10 kg at up to 55 x 40 x 20 cm. The 40 x 30 x 20 personal item is separate and goes under the seat in front rather than in the locker.
That makes TUI closer to Jet2 than to Ryanair: two bags in the cabin without paying extra for the second one.
Note the shape of TUI's larger allowance. At 55 x 40 x 20 it is longer and narrower than the 56 x 45 x 25 that Jet2 and British Airways use, so a case bought to the more common number can be too deep for TUI.
People assume a package booking comes with a more relaxed baggage allowance because the hold allowance is usually generous. The cabin allowance is set by the aircraft, not by the holiday.
The space under the seat in front of you is the same on a package flight as on a flight-only booking, and so is the rule.
TUI allow a collapsible pushchair into the cabin if it weighs under 10 kg, is no bigger than 55 x 40 x 20 cm and carries a hand luggage label issued at check-in. That counts as the larger piece of hand luggage for one adult on the booking.
If that applies to you, the adult carrying the pushchair still gets the 40 x 30 x 20 bag under the seat. It is worth planning what goes in it, because it becomes the only thing you can reach in flight.
