Carry-on: 45×36×20 cm.
Extra bag fee: $70 USD; overweight: $10 USD/kg above 23 kg.
easyJet (U2) baggage rules can catch you out at the gate if you haven't measured: carry-on 45×36×20 cm, no formal weight cap, checked 23 kg per standard bag, extra bags $70 each and overweight charges $10/kg over the limit. Slide the bag count and weight inputs to see your total easyJet fee before you fly — and compare it against the cost of pre-booking an extra bag online, where the same bag often costs 40–60% less than at the counter.
easyJet Carry-On Rules
For easyJet flights, your carry-on must measure at most 45×36×20 cm — the sizer at the gate is the arbiter, not the check-in agent. easyJet's carry-on policy leans on dimensions rather than weight: 45×36×20 cm, enforced by the gate sizer. easyJet's free cabin bag is one small 45×36×20 cm piece with no weight limit — the 56×45×25 cm, 15 kg large cabin bag requires easyJet Plus or a paid large-bag add-on. A purse or laptop bag rides inside the underseat allowance on easyJet — it does not stack a third bag on top.
Checked Baggage Policy for easyJet
| Item | Allowance / limit | Online fee | Airport estimate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carry-on | 45×36×20 cm (sizer only) | $0 | $0 (gate-check risk if oversized) |
| First checked bag | 23 kg · 158 cm linear | $35 | $53 |
| Extra checked bag | 158 cm linear | $70 | $105 |
| Overweight | Above 23 kg | $10 / kg | $14–16 / kg |
Airport estimates add the typical 40–60% counter premium over easyJet's online rates; bags above 32 kg are refused at the check-in counter and must ship as cargo.

easyJet allows one checked bag for $35 USD weighing up to 23 kg. Extra checked bags on easyJet price at $70 USD each online; at the counter, expect 40–60% more for the identical bag.
Pre-book the first checked bag on easyJet online; counter pricing is significantly higher. Overweight pricing runs $10/kg past 23 kg either way.
easyJet Extra Bag and Overweight Charges
| Bag weight | Overweight surcharge | Second bag instead | Cheaper play |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 kg | $20 | $70 | Pay overweight |
| 28 kg | $50 | $70 | Pay overweight |
| 32 kg | $90 | $70 | Split bags |
Overweight = $10/kg above 23 kg on easyJet; second-bag figures are online rates (airport counters add 40–60%).

easyJet charges $70 USD per additional checked bag beyond the first, and $10 USD per kilogram over the 23 kg limit. Compare strategies before paying: a second 18 kg bag at $70 often beats $10/kg overweight on one heavy case — the calculator tests both configurations for easyJet (U2).
The cheapest fixes are free on easyJet too: distribute weight across bags, wear the heavy coat, pocket the chargers. Pre-booking easyJet extra bags online locks the lowest rate.
easyJet Special Baggage: Bikes, Skis and Instruments
easyJet treats sports equipment — skis, snowboards, golf clubs, surfboards, bicycles — as standard checked bags within the 23 kg weight limit, subject to the same per-bag fee. Guitars and cellos are the awkward case on easyJet: either buy them a seat or check them in a hard case — soft cases are not covered for damage.
Pack fragile and valuable items carefully — easyJet's liability for damage to improperly packed special items is limited, and hard-shell cases settle most disputes before they start.
