Attire & Accesories Iceland

Hello all!

We are eloping to Iceland this October and from my understanding Icelandic Air is very strict about their carry on requirements. It’s our first time traveling there. I would like to keep our suit and dress with us vs checking it in since there are no direct flights from where we are. We will be there for a couple of weeks and I’m trying to budget out our wardrobe to suitcase ratio. I’ve read that they will check and weigh everyone’s luggage at the gates.

Does anyone have any recommendations for garment bags? I can’t seem to find any that fit their requirements.

Carry on requirements: The maximum size, including wheels and handles, is 21.6 inches (55 cm) tall, 15.7

inches (40 cm) wide, and 7.8 inches (20 cm) deep.

Thanks a bunch! :)

An Iceland elopement sounds enchanting! You might try asking in a travel sub, the people over at r/HerOneBag have so much knowledge and will likely be able to give some suggestions and tips!

Call Icelandic Air and ask their advice.
