澳大利亚廉价航空公司捷星航空宣布将从2027年2月起调整随身行李政策[1]。新政策取消现有的7公斤重量限制，改为按行李尺寸分类收费[1]。乘客可免费携带一件不超过40×30×20厘米的行李放在座位下方[1]，但若要在头顶行李架存放更大的行李则需支付额外费用[1]。
付费行李可达56×36×23厘米的尺寸[1]，收费标准根据航线而定，最低为25美元（如朗塞斯顿至悉尼航线），最高可达52美元（如开罗至东京航线）[1]。捷星航空首席执行官斯蒂芬妮·特利表示："我们知道在登机口为随身行李称重会让客户和乘务人员感到沮丧。"[1]新政策下，公司将取消例行的客舱行李称重程序，但仍建议乘客保持随身行李不超过10公斤[1]。
Australian budget airline Jetstar has announced sweeping changes to its carry-on baggage policy, set to take effect in February 2027[1]. The new system abandons the airline's existing 7-kilogram weight restriction in favor of a size-based classification approach[1].
Under the revised policy, passengers will be permitted to bring one complimentary bag measuring 40 by 30 by 20 centimeters to store beneath their seat[1]. Any larger carry-on items intended for overhead storage—sized up to 56 by 36 by 23 centimeters—will incur an additional fee[1]. Charges will vary by route, ranging from $25 for flights between Launceston and Sydney to $52 for routes such as Cairo to Tokyo[1].
Jetstar CEO Stephanie Tully explained the rationale behind the shift, stating: "We know that weighing carry-on bags at the gate can be frustrating for our customers and for our crew"[1]. While the airline will discontinue routine cabin baggage weighing procedures, it continues to recommend that passengers maintain carry-on items not exceeding 10 kilograms[1].
