Jetstar has removed weight-based restrictions on cabin baggage, moving to a piece-based allowance instead. Passengers can now carry cabin bags without worrying about total weight, provided they stay within the piece limit and size restrictions.

### What it means for you

This simplifies packing for business travellers on Jetstar, who no longer need to weigh carry-on bags before the gate. The change makes Jetstar's cabin baggage policy more aligned with full-service carriers. Check Jetstar's current piece and size limits, as these remain the binding constraint.
