What is the carry-on baggage policy for American Airlines?

Asked a year ago
American Airlines allows passengers to bring one personal item and one carry-on bag onboard for free. The personal item should fit under the seat in front of you and can include a purse, briefcase, or laptop bag. The carry-on bag should fit in the overhead bin and must not exceed the dimensions of 22 x 14 x 9 inches. However, certain exceptions are applicable for some aircraft with limited overhead space. Additionally, passengers traveling with infants are allowed to bring diaper bags as an additional item. Remember to check for any restrictions on liquids, gels, or other items that are not allowed in carry-on baggage. It is always recommended to check American Airlines' official website for any updates or specific guidelines regarding carry-on baggage to ensure a smooth travel experience.
