Sunair

Allowed dimensions: 45x35x20 cm · Maximum weight: 7 kg

The context in a few words

A mid-size airline based in Nouvelle-Zélande, Sunair runs a regional network rather than a continent-spanning one. On carry-on rules, the grid is straightforward — no major traps if you respect the published dimensions.

The numbers are tight: 45x35x20 cm, max 7 kg. That's below market average — better to measure the bag at home with a tape than to assume "it fit on another airline".

For quick comparison: the IATA reference grid is 56×36×23 cm at 7 kg. Sunair sits around 45x35x20 cm, with a weight cap of 7 kg — that benchmark anticipates cabin allowance. Any bag over by more than a centimetre risks rerouting to the hold.

At boarding, checks are usually human and reasonable, but regional aircraft are less forgiving on size. A well-proportioned cabin bag beats an oversized one that ends up gate-checked at the bottom of the jet bridge.

Sunair doesn't communicate clearly on the additional personal item. Counter experience favours a small handbag; beyond that, check with the agent or consolidate in the main suitcase to avoid boarding refusal.
