TAP Air Portugal vs Air France — carry-on baggage compared | CabinPax

Carry-on rules side by side: maximum dimensions, weight allowance, personal item. Data updated April 2026.

• TAP Air Portugal: 55x40x25 cm · 10 kg
• Air France: 55x35x25 cm · 12 kg

Both carriers operate in the same league, so the gap on carry-on rules is more granular than philosophical. A few centimetres here, a kilo there — but real consequences at the gate.

TAP Air Portugal pulls ahead on dimensions (55x40x25 cm versus 55x35x25 cm for Air France). When the carry-on is right at the limit, TAP Air Portugal keeps the door open while Air France closes it.
