Spring Airlines

Allowed dimensions: 40x20x30 cm · Maximum weight: 7 kg

The context in a few words

Spring Airlines mostly operates within Chine and its immediate neighbours. It's the typical regional carrier profile: a tight fleet, focused routes, and a baggage policy that mirrors the regional norm.

Numbers to remember: 40x20x30 cm and 7 kg. At this level of rigour, the gap between theory and gate practice gets expensive — a lot of travellers get caught and end up paying for hold luggage.

In concrete terms: a typical "cabin format" suitcase weighs 2–3 kg empty for 55×40×20 cm. On Spring Airlines, once filled, the usable margin against the 7 kg ceiling shrinks to a few kilos. Frequent travellers tune the bag to exact spec to avoid gate-side reclassification fees.

On the ground, agent discretion is wider than on majors. A bag that's slightly over may pass; a clearly oversized one ends up in the hold, sometimes free of charge, but with extra wait at arrival.

Don't overlook the allowed personal item — it's often the trick that saves a light trip. Handbag, laptop sleeve or small backpack, as long as it slides under the seat in front. On Spring Airlines, that's where books, headphones, water and flight essentials live without eating into the main carry-on.
