How many carry-on bags can I bring from Canada to India?

Most airlines on Canada–India routes allow 1 carry-on bag plus 1 personal item (laptop bag, purse, or small backpack). Air Canada: 1 standard carry-on (up to 9kg, 55cm x 40cm x 23cm) + 1 personal item. Air India: 1 carry-on (8kg economy, 12kg business) + 1 personal item. Emirates: 1 carry-on (7kg economy, 15kg business) + 1 personal item.

What is the carry-on size limit for Air Canada flights to India?

Air Canada's carry-on bag must fit within 55cm x 40cm x 23cm (21.5 x 15.5 x 9 inches) and weigh no more than 9kg (20 lbs). The personal item must fit under the seat in front. On the 787 nonstop to Delhi, overhead bin space fills quickly — boarding early helps. Business class and Premium Economy passengers board first.

Are liquids restricted in carry-on bags on Canada–India flights?

Yes — CATSA (Canadian Air Transport Security Authority) enforces the 100ml liquid rule. Each liquid container must be 100ml or less, and all containers must fit in one clear 1-litre bag per person. This applies at the Toronto or Vancouver departure point. At connecting hubs (Dubai, London, Frankfurt), additional liquid screening may occur for duty-free items purchased in Canada. Prescription medications and baby formula/food are generally exempt.

What are the checked baggage allowances for Canada–India flights?

Air Canada (YYZ/YVR–DEL nonstop): economy = 1 bag (23kg), Premium Economy = 2 bags (23kg each), Signature Class = 3 bags (32kg each). Air India: similar allowances with generous weight limits in business class. Emirates/Qatar: economy typically 30kg checked allowance on India routes — more generous than other corridors. Confirm your allowance on your itinerary before packing.
