✅ Yes, Delta Airlines allows 1 carry-on up to 22 × 14 × 9 inches (56 × 36 × 23 cm), plus 1 personal item that fits under the seat in front of you.
Delta also uses the “45 linear inches” rule (length + width + height ≤ 45″). Wheels and handles count toward the size.
| Item | Max Size (inches) | Notes |
| Carry-On | 22 × 14 × 9 | Wheels/handles count; ≤ 45 linear in |

How to Measure Your Bag (H2 heading)
- Measure your bag including wheels and handles.
- Add length + width + height to check the 45 linear inches rule.
- For your personal item, test if it slides under a standard seat.
Gotchas / Common Issues
- On smaller regional jets, even compliant carry-ons may need to be gate-checked.
- Wheels and handles DO count toward measurements.
- Personal items must fit fully under the seat—oversized totes may be refused.
