Enter your measurements
To work out what underseat bag size do i need, begin with bag length, bag width, and bag height. The calculator produces underseat bag compliance from the measurements that actually control the result.
- Bag length — Required
- Bag width — Required
- Bag height — Required
- Allowed underseat length — Required
- Allowed width — Required
- Allowed height — Required
Underseat bag compliance
Enter the measurements above to calculate underseat bag compliance.
How the calculation works
V12 calculation: lengthMargin=airlineLength-bagLength; widthMargin=airlineWidth-bagWidth; heightMargin=airlineHeight-bagHeight; lengthPass=lengthMargin≥0; widthPass=widthMargin≥0; heightPass=heightMargin≥0; overallPass=lengthPass AND widthPass AND heightPass. This is the implementation specification for this calculator.
Worked example
Example: Bag length = 64.72 cm; Bag width = 77.32 cm; Bag height = 43.81 cm; Allowed underseat length = 97.62 cm; Allowed width = 83.72 cm; Allowed height = 101.29 cm. Result: Fits; Height Pass = Pass; Width Pass = Pass; Length Pass = Pass.
