The bag that boards, before you pay for it
Thai carriers draw the cabin frame at 56 × 36 × 23 cm. Most cabin bags sold in Bangkok are 40 cm wide. Every bag on this table carries the number that matters: how many of the eighteen frames it clears once the wheels and handles are counted.

Eighteen frames, Suvarnabhumi to Doha
Width is the wall. Sixteen of the eighteen stop at 36 cm, and a 40 cm bag — the shape sold across Europe — clears none of the Thai carriers.

15 carriers also publish a personal-item box| Code | Airline | Cabin box | Cabin kg | Second bag | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TG | Thai Airways | 56 × 45 × 25 cm | 7 kg | one piece | 45 cm wide — the widest overhead frame of any Thai carrier, but one bag only. |
| FD | Thai AirAsia | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | Tightest width in the country at 36 cm. The 7 kg is the two bags together. |
| DD | Nok Air | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 15 cm | Personal item at 40 × 30 × 15 cm. Combined weight, not per bag. |
| SL | Thai Lion Air | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 20 cm | Some gates still work from the older 40 × 30 × 20 box — a 36 cm bag can be refused. |
| PG | Bangkok Airways | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 5 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | Five kilos for both bags. The lightest cabin allowance into Samui. |
| VZ | Thai Vietjet | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | Same frame as Vietjet. The two bags share the seven kilos. |
| VJ | Vietjet Air | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | SkyBoss fares carry 10 kg instead of 7. |
| TR | Scoot | 54 × 38 × 23 cm | 10 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | Ten kilos across two bags, but the main bag stops at 54 cm. |
| SQ | Singapore Airlines | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | One main bag plus a small item, seven kilos together. |
| MH | Malaysia Airlines | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | Economy to Kuala Lumpur runs the same 56 × 36 × 23 envelope. |
| CX | Cathay Pacific | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | The frame is generous; the seven kilos is what the gate weighs. |
| BR | EVA Air | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | Taipei bound. Two pieces, 7 kg together. |
| CI | China Airlines | 56 × 36 × 23 cm | 7 kg | 40 × 30 × 10 cm | Same envelope as EVA. Personal item must fit under the seat. |
| KE | Korean Air | 55 × 40 × 20 cm | 10 kg | 40 × 30 × 15 cm | Ten kilos, but only 20 cm deep — the tightest depth on the board. |
| NH | ANA | 55 × 40 × 25 cm | 10 kg | 40 × 30 × 15 cm | Ten kilos and 25 cm of depth. The most forgiving frame to Tokyo. |
| JL | Japan Airlines | 55 × 40 × 25 cm | 10 kg | 40 × 30 × 15 cm | Same numbers as ANA. Ten kilos across the two pieces. |
| EK | Emirates | 55 × 38 × 20 cm | 7 kg | one piece | One bag, seven kilos, 20 cm deep. Duty-free bags count once you are airside. |
| QR | Qatar Airways | 50 × 37 × 25 cm | 7 kg | one piece | 50 cm is the shortest length on the board — most 55 cm bags fail it. |

The numbers are the outside of the bag, wheels and handles included, because that is what the sizer at the gate measures.

The counter
Everything is decided at the Amazon counter
Pick while you walk. The basket holds a list on this device, and one button at the end turns that list into an Amazon.sg cart — where the stock is real, the address is yours and the payment is Amazon's business.
This page charges nothing and asks for no card. The list stays put until you clear site data.

The stall's cutAmazon commission
At the gate
Six things people ask at the stall
Does the tape run over the wheels?
It does. The plastic box at the gate takes the whole bag, so a wheel set and a loaded side pocket sit inside the number. A shell advertised as 55 cm often lands at 58 once the bag is dressed.
Why does everyone here stop at 36 cm?
Five of the six Thai carriers draw the same box: 56 × 36 × 23 cm. The European shape is 55 × 40 × 20, and those extra four centimetres of width fail every one of them at the gate.
Which carrier is the strictest?
Qatar Airways, at 50 × 37 × 25 cm. Fifty centimetres of length rejects most 55 cm cabin bags before depth is even considered.
Do I pay in baht or in dollars?
Amazon.sg settles in Singapore dollars, so that is the figure on the card. The baht line is only a reading aid, converted at 26.5 and moving with the market.
What does the add button actually do?
It writes the bag's code into a list on this device. At the counter page that list becomes a single link into the Amazon.sg cart; everything after that link is Amazon's.
How often do the boxes move?
More often than the airlines announce. Each row was taken from the carrier's own page in November 2026, and the board is re-read every quarter — but the airline's page is always a step ahead of ours.
The small print
What this stall is, and is not
- Affiliate notice
- Links to Amazon.sg carry the associate tag aviewebnue-22. If you buy through one, aviewebnue is paid a commission and your price does not move. The ranking of the shelf is untouched by it. Full notice.
- Prices and stock
- The shelf is a reading of live listings, not a catalogue. Price, rating and availability move on Amazon's side, so the listing you land on is the one that counts.
- Airline figures
- Every box was copied from the airline's own cabin page and re-read in November 2026. Allowances move between reads, and the gate applies the rule of the day.
- Privacy and terms
- The list lives in your browser and nowhere else. Three pages cover the rest: what is kept, the ground rules, storage.
