Before you rely on this
An empty field on this page means the operator doesn't publish that figure. It never means there is no limit.
These figures are for the Saver fare. The operator sells other fares, and what is included can differ between them. The source link above goes to the page these figures were read from.
Meeting a published limit is not a promise that staff will accept your bag at the gate. At least one operator states that paying at the gate does not guarantee a bag over the limit will be carried.
