Carry-on baggage — El Salvador airlines

The aviation market in El Salvador groups 12 identified operators. At that level, carry-on policies stop being homogeneous: a traveller switching carriers can see their allowance shift by several kilos.

On numbers, 2 of those 12 airlines belong to the low-cost segment — meaning carry-on choices can shape the bottom line as much as the ticket itself. Observed median sits around 118 cm dimensional sum and 10 kg, but that average hides extremes.
